The system has been a workhorse for our medium production boutique extraction products. The system was purchased and installed Jan 2017. Used for three years to extract terpenes and wax in subcritical. Never used in supercritical except for a few experiments hera and there. Closed business January 2020 due to medical issue. System is in very good condition and has been stored in temperature controlled storage. System performed as advertised.
PLEASE: I am not looking to debate the merits of various types of technologies or approaches to extraction. Just looking to sell the system to someone that has a need.
@WildRogue710 Looking at the photos vs your description, I’m hoping you might clarify something. The spec sheet and the title show a 5x5, but there’s only one extraction vessel on the equipment in the picture. Are you sure it isn’t a Bambino 5L i2000-5L?
@Napoleon Good eye. We bought the Apeks system 2000-5LD with the 3 phase motor, SN 15411 at the end of 2015 and put it into service in early 2016. We added another 5L vessel at the end of 2017 to upgrade to a 2000-5Lx5L.
The system is being stored in a temperature controlled warehouse. I suspect that you will need to know how many hours on the system, which I didn’t record before we shut things down. I am sure we can fire up the automated control system to get this. I can take pictures of the current as-is system if you like. However, it is in storage so not in an installed and setup configuration.
I’ll be at the warehouse tomorrow on other business and will get pics, etc then.
