IMPORTANT NOTES:

 

The 4" Tri-Clamp Connection Lid is designed primarily for small to medium-sized still heads that do not have heavy, off-centre attachments. The lid is reasonably flexible and is sturdy enough to fit a still head that is within the following specifications:

 

  • A still head height up to 1.1 m (3.6 ft) from the lid.
  • A still head weight up to 11 kg (24 lbs), including up to 2 kg (4.4 lbs) of off-centre weight from a swan neck, lyne arm, or condenser running in parallel with the column and offset up to 160 mm (6”) to the main column.

 

We recommend external support if:

 

  • Your still exceeds the above specifications.
  • The lyne arm is not vertical but angled or perpendicular running away from the column, resulting in significantly distant off-centre weight.
  • If the main still head (column) is noticeably leaning.
  • Legal Considerations: Distilling at home is legal in New Zealand. Check the laws in your country or state before you get started.
