Zero Dead Space Drain Valve
Components Needed for Zero Dead Space Drain Valve:
1ea CG-1968-Q-01
Zero Dead Space Drain Valve
1ea CG-1968-67
2”Beaded Pipe Coupling
1. Loosen the nut on the 2”beaded pipe coupling (CG-1968-67). Wet the PTFE/Viton liner inside the coupling and
attach on side to the 2”beaded pipe drain valve seat on the reactor.
2. Attach the drain valve assembly (CG-1968-Q-01) to the other side of the coupling. PLEASE NOTE: PLUG
MUST BE IN THE OPEN POSITION. AFTER ASSEMBLY, BE SURE THE PLUG IS IN THE CLOSED
POSITION PRIOR TO FILLING THE REACTOR.
3. Tighten the 2”beaded pipe coupling to 60in-lbs using a torque wrench.
BEFORE YOU START:
The reactor is now ready for use. Before filling the reactor, make sure the zero dead space drain valve is in the closed
position. Once setup is complete, the reactor can be moved into position and connected to the circulator. Keep the wheels
locked for added safety.
Chemglass presumes some knowledge of this type of equipment on the part of the end user. Properties such as
mechanical strength of glass, thermal stress introduced to the reactor from exothermic reactions, allowable
temperature differentials, pressure and vacuum must all be considered with extreme caution.
