1 SCOPE This Standard specifies suitable apparatus for the determination of the water
content of sample by the method of distillation with an immiscible liquid.

2 REFERENCED DOCUMENT The following document is referred to in this


Standard:
AS
2409 Interchangeable conical ground glass joints
This is a free 5 page sample. Access the full version at http://infostore.saiglobal.com.

3 ASSEMBLY OF APPARATUS This apparatus shall consist of the following


components, assembled as shown in Figure 1:
(a) Distillation vessel.
(b) Condenser, including spray tube if required.
(c) Receiver.

4 MATERIAL The receiver and condenser shall be made of borosilicate glass as free
as possible from visible defects and shall be well annealed.

5 DESIGN AND DIMENSIONS The general design and dimensions of the apparatus
shall be as shown in Figure 1 to Figure 12. The only dimensions that are mandatory are
those given in Clause 7 and Table 2. The remaining dimensions are given for the guidance
of manufacturers.

6 DISTILLATION VESSEL For different purposes a flask made of borosilicate glass


or a metal flask or pot is suitable. If a glass flask is used, the connection to the receiver
shall be made by means of a cork or by a ground glass joint complying with AS 2409, as
specified in Table 1. If a metal vessel is used, the connection shall be made by a cork or
by other suitable means such as that shown in Figure 2.

7 CONDENSER
7.1 Design and dimensions The condenser shall be a glass water-cooled reflux type,
of the design and dimensions shown in Figure 3. The only mandatory dimensions (see
Clause 5) for the condenser are the external diameters of the inner tube and of the jacket,
which shall be 16-17 mm, and 23-25 mm, respectively.
7.2 Construction The following features should be incorporated in the construction of
the condenser:
(a) The joints A and B should be neatly finished as shown in Figure 3; in particular, the
bore at B should have the minimum disturbance.
(b) The shoulder above the cone of the k6 Series, 18.8 mm diameter joint at C should
be elongated as shown in Figure 3, thus avoiding a sharp re-entrant shape which
may restrict the free flow of liquid down the inner wall.
