Product Description
Get faster cooling from a slimmer condenser. The West design uses a narrow annular coolant space, so water flows quickly around the inner tube and removes heat efficiently while the unit stays light and easy to handle. It is a convenient, lightweight choice for teaching and research benches.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 452000-2430: KONTES West Condenser, 442 mm. It is made of low-extractable borosilicate glass 3.3 with a 24/40 standard taper outer joint at the top and a 24/40 inner drip joint at the bottom. Jacket lengths of 100 and 300 mm are listed, for overall heights of 242 and 442 mm. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order alongside the rest of your glassware and closures.
