Spinning band distillation unit for sale $50k OBO

Got a spinning band for sale . I am getting out the the industry and just need some of my money back on equipment . Paid over 100k for it .
This machine can allow you to do really big runs or really small runs. It can fit the needs of any size lab . I upgraded the spinning band column. So the machine would come with both columns.
Paid 13 grand for the upgraded column , it is a bigger bore and makes the runs way faster .

Upgraded the vacuum pump from a 12 cfm to an Atlas gvd 28
Also upgraded the boiling flask with a 22 liter flask and mantle for bigger runs it’s awesome .
Machine does come with a 5L boiling flask and mantle As well.
Also comes with a 1 liter boiling flask and mantle .
Had it’s own computer with software built in . With many parameters that can be set for your ideal distillate run.
I’ve put over 20k in upgrades on this thing. It is a power house for making high purity distillate . I’ve gotten 89% on single pass and it looks great in color as well.
Asking 50k for the whole unit . Located in Santa Cruz California .
You can contact Alex @ 831-428-6332
Thanks

What kind of throughput per hour were you averaging?

Well personally with my setup. I was getting anywhere between 1 to 1.5 L an hour depending on the reflux setting used for it And what pass it was on . I also had a decarb vessel , did a terpstrip on it prior to loading . Although the cold trap works well I Submersed the terp fraction tubes in dry ice also. Anything to help throughput I did . These were not so fast with the first column they made but I ended up upgrading the spinning band column to remedy that along with the vac pump setup.
