Frequently Asked Questions- What is the difference between M4, M8, and M12 Water Stills?
The primary differences are distillation capacity (M4: 4 L/h, M8: 8 L/h, M12: 12 L/h), with corresponding increases in cooling water consumption, internal tank capacity, and power rating. - Are these water stills energy-efficient?
All models use stainless steel tube heating elements that provide efficient heat transfer; combined with their safety and control systems, this helps limit energy waste during operation. - What safety features are included?
Each model is equipped with water level control, a magnetic switch, and a leakage-current fuse (automatic fuses) to ensure safe operation and protect the heater circuits. - Is the water output temperature adjustable?
The output water temperature for these models is specified at 50°C. - Do these water stills require regular maintenance?
Regular cleaning of the stainless steel chamber and periodic replacement or maintenance of the external water filter are recommended to maintain performance and longevity.
