Single Station Touchscreen Glovebox Inert Atmosphere Purification System

Product Overview

This single station touchscreen glovebox is an integrated inert atmosphere containment system engineered specifically for sensitive electrochemical synthesis, advanced materials preparation, and moisture-critical assembly operations. Featuring an autonomous single-column gas purification system, the equipment continuously scrubs recirculating inert gas to maintain an ultra-pure environment with moisture and oxygen concentrations below 1 ppm. Its single-sided operational layout combines ergonomic visibility with a heavy-duty hermetic enclosure, delivering complete contamination control for next-generation research.

Designed primarily for solid-state battery R&D, sulfide electrolyte formulation, and organometallic synthesis, this system addresses the acute safety and purity demands of reactive chemical processing. The platform integrates a specialized hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) scrubbing column alongside hydrofluoric acid (HF) removal traps, protecting both the core purification catalyst and operating personnel from volatile byproducts during active material handling and cell assembly workflows.

Built on a rigid 304 stainless steel architecture, the workstation incorporates an advanced Siemens PLC interface, dual stainless steel antechambers, a variable-frequency circulation blower, and automated chamber pressure balancing. Whether running continuous baseline experiments or handling demanding synthesis cycles, this equipment ensures repeatable atmospheric purity, robust chemical resistance, and long-term operational dependability under rigorous laboratory conditions.

Key Features

• Ultra-Pure Working Atmosphere: Closed-loop gas purification maintains moisture ($H_2O$) and oxygen ($O_2$) levels at less than 1 ppm under standard inert conditions ($20^\circ\text{C}$, 1 atm, 99.999% inert gas supply) with an exceptional leak rate of $\le 0.05\text{ vol}%/\text{h}$.
• Dedicated Sulfide & Acid Vapor Scrubbing: Integrated chemical absorption systems—including a dedicated H₂S trapping column and HF scrubber—actively remove volatile reaction byproducts before they can degrade the main purification catalyst or contaminate the internal chamber.
• Siemens PLC & Touchscreen Automation: High-resolution interface centralizes system self-diagnostics, automated chamber purging, power-off auto-restart capabilities, real-time parameter logging, and password-protected administrative controls.
• Dual Stainless Steel Antechambers: Equipped with a large cylindrical chamber ($Ø360\text{ mm} \times 600\text{ mm}$) featuring a vertical-lift anodized door with a sliding tray, plus a compact chamber ($Ø150\text{ mm} \times 300\text{ mm}$) for rapid, low-consumption sample introduction.
• High-Capacity Closed-Loop Purification: Houses 5 kg of high-activity copper catalyst (60 L $O_2$ capacity) and 5 kg of precision molecular sieve (2 kg $H_2O$ capacity) driven by a 90 $m^3/h$ variable-frequency blower.
• Automated Catalyst Regeneration: Microprocessor-managed thermal regeneration cycle restores moisture and oxygen absorption beds automatically using standard forming gas mixtures (5–10% $H_2$ in inert carrier gas).
• Precision Dynamic Pressure Control: Programmable system regulates chamber pressure within a user-defined $\pm 15\text{ mbar}$ envelope, backed by automatic $\pm 16\text{ mbar}$ over/underpressure safety tripping and hands-free foot pedal adjustment.
• Advanced Analytical Instrumentation: High-accuracy P₂O₅ moisture analyzer ($0\text{--}500\text{ ppm}$, cleanable and reusable probe) and electrochemical oxygen sensor ($0\text{--}1000\text{ ppm}$) deliver responsive $0.1\text{ ppm}$ resolution.
• Heavy-Duty Ergonomic Enclosure: Constructed from 3 mm acid-resistant 304 stainless steel with a brushed interior, paired with an 8 mm inclined tempered safety glass window and leak-tight aluminum alloy glove ports with butyl rubber gloves.
