Cold Traps for Vacuum Protection and Vapour Condensation
Cold traps are used where laboratories need to condense solvents, moisture or volatile vapours before they enter a vacuum pump or connected system. The visible category range includes Lenz-Laborglas cold traps with condensate drain and coolant capacities of 200 ml and 500 ml, cold traps with cone and bush NS 29/32 connections, Boro 3.3 glass formats, KGW Schieder cold traps supplied with Dewar flasks, plastic support rings and drain openings, plus straight and bent PP hose connections for screw caps.
- Vacuum pump protection: Use cold traps to help reduce solvent or moisture carryover into vacuum pumps during compatible laboratory workflows.
- Condensate drain options: Select cold traps with condensate drains where collected liquid needs easier removal after operation.
- Dewar flask systems: Choose KGW Schieder cold trap assemblies where Dewar flask cooling and stable trap support are required.
- Connection matching: Confirm NS 29/32 joints, hose connection style, coolant capacity and system compatibility before ordering.
Choosing Laboratory Cold Traps and Accessories
Technical buyers should confirm the application, vacuum system layout, solvent type, coolant type, trap capacity, condensate volume, glass material, joint size, hose connection style and whether the workflow requires a drain opening or a simpler trap design. For related procurement, teams may also review Vacuum Pumps, Laboratory Evaporators and Laboratory Glassware.
Applications Across Laboratory Vacuum and Solvent Workflows
Cold traps are selected where vapour control, condensate capture and vacuum pump protection are important for repeatable laboratory operation.
- Vacuum applications: Capture condensable vapours before they reach pumps, manifolds or connected vacuum equipment.
- Solvent and moisture trapping: Condense moisture, solvent vapours or volatile materials during compatible chemical and sample preparation workflows.
- Rotary evaporation and concentration: Support solvent handling where evaporators, concentrators or vacuum systems require additional vapour protection.
- Research and analytical laboratories: Maintain cold trap accessories for distillation, freeze-drying support, vacuum drying and routine chemical preparation.
Supported Supply Channel and Related Categories
The visible category range is supplied through Labfriend, covering Lenz-Laborglas cold traps, KGW Schieder Dewar flask cold traps and plastic hose connection accessories. Procurement teams building a wider vacuum setup may also compare Rotary Evaporators, Laboratory Concentrators and broader Laboratory and Scientific Equipment.
