Perkin Elmer Surface Area Trap 232-1022

The Perkin Elmer Model 232-1022 Surface Area Trap (also referenced as a roughing-line cold trap) is a high-performance vacuum accessory designed to protect vacuum pumps and maintain ultra-clean vacuum conditions. It is ideally suited for surface area analyzers, BET systems, vacuum drying lines, and other laboratory applications requiring the removal of condensables, volatiles and vapor out-gassing from sample or process lines.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Optimised for surface area analysis workflows: The trap is designed to cope with gases and vapours commonly associated with adsorption/desorption testing (e.g., in BET analyzers), thus safeguarding the vacuum system and ensuring stable baseline performance.

• Roughing-line protection: By installing this trap upstream of the pump, you reduce the ingress of condensable vapours, extend pump service intervals, and maintain accurate vacuum pressures.

• Robust construction: Built to the high quality standards of Perkin Elmer, with durable metal/glass assemblies that suit lab-scale instrumentation.

• Easy installation & maintenance: Designed to integrate into existing vacuum systems with standard fittings, and allows periodic regeneration (or replacement) of the internal adsorbent/reservoir.

• Ideal for professional users: This is a specialist piece of equipment for use in analytical, research or industrial laboratories — perfect for engineers managing vacuum systems, scientists working on materials characterization, and institutions needing reliable instrumentation support.
