It basically allows better distributuion of the vapor while preventing liquid backflow. The vapor flows through the center of the body, bends down because of the top and exits the little slots of the cap. It allows for ok contact between liquid and vapor. In distillation, you want a very close contact between liquid and vapor to allow the less volatile compounds to condense and the more volatile to evaporate. If there was no cap and only used the holes, the liquid would fall too quickly and have no real chance to contact the vapor, thus no effective separation of the components. I hope I wasn't too redundant in my explanation.
Do you sell just the screw?
Thanks, From where can I get the stuff (bubble caps)
Please check out our website to get the bubble caps stilldragon.com/
Will the 4 inch bubble plates for pro caps fit a mile high column?
Please explain how to wash these copper plates
Hi Mehdi! If you have the plates broken down, you can use a vinegar, lime and salt solution. It will get the plates back to beautiful copper!
how thick is the plate the caps are screwed to?
The plate thickness is 1.5 mm
What does the flow director do?
Sorry for the slow response! The flow director directs the liquid to the liquid bed, rather than possibly down into the next ProCap.
Didn't learn much about what bubble caps are

@@Ottmar555 Great explanation!
استمر 👍
exactly .. what are pro caps .. still no explanation of what difference they do
@Pumextonio send us an email and we'd be happy to explain better! smaug@stilldragon.com
lay out the drawing of plates, thanks
wow learnt nothing, thanks
