Technical Information

The RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel, has a 250 gallon (964 liters) tank capacity with float valves, and contaminated solvent, usually either Methanol or Ethanol mixture, entry tube installed. As the solvent, either Methanol or Ethanol, distills through the condenser, controls sense the lowered level of un-distilled solvent remaining in the tank and activate the pumps for refilling contaminated Biodiesel and either Methanol or Ethanol mixture. Like all RSI systems, the RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel is designed to be durable, portable, simple to operate and safe. It is the only 250 gallon, continuous flow, for Biodiesel solvent distillation system manufactured today. It will distill, on a continuous basis, all of a customers non adhering, lightly contaminated solvent, usually either Methanol or Ethanol, that is in the mixture, without shutting down. And like all RSI systems, the RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel is designed with intrinsically safe electronic controls.

Safe: The auxiliary heater operates in a jacketed heat medium container, and together with the pumped recirculating medium, will eliminate any 'hot spots'. Solvent distillation, usually either Methanol or Ethanol, is controlled by low-voltage, 'Intrinsically Safe' Fuji controls. High voltage components are all housed in exposed NEMA-rated explosion proof housings. Finally, an over temperature breaker in the auxiliary heater halts the heater process in case thermal control is lost.

Rugged: The tank, lid assembly, tube in tube condenser, vacuum and circuit board case of the RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel are 100% stainless steel for rugged good looks, easy cleanup and extreme durability. All stainless parts are easy to reach and clean, and resist all solvents and most acids for outstanding durability. All parts of the solvent distillation system as well as the electronic system design are modular and can be easily replaced if damaged. On the galvanized pallet, the two explosion proof motors and pumps are wired directly into the float switches in the stainless steel tanks to insure that the entire operation is automatic.

Fast: The RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel has an auxiliary heater that operates in a jacketed heat medium container, and together with the pumped recirculating medium, will result in safe solvent recycling. That auxiliary heater quickly heats the heat medium in the jacket causing the solvent, usually either Methanol or Ethanol, to rapidly reach its vapor point. A water-cooled tube-in-tube condenser provides the most efficient and reliable condensing system available, making the entire system maintenance-free. A water chiller is available as an accessory for extra high temperature applications.

Versatile: Like some of the other RSI systems, the RSI-250 CF for Biodiesel is mounted on its own galvanized pallets and can be simply fork lifted from one department to another. And a 30 foot (10 meter) power cord connected to the control panel electric box is provided to make connection in each location easy . (Warning: Users are cautioned to provide adequate ventilation so as to not create an explosive atmosphere around the wall plug connection or the cooling water re-circulator)
