Automatic distillation and rectification PERVAK LITE 1.01 (Pervak light 1.01) is intended for partial automation of rectification and distillation processes in home distillation and home brewing. The PERVAK LITE 1.01 automation is essentially a deeply modernized version of the Start-Stop automation and uses most of the Start-Stop principles, but at the same time has a number of advantages. Today we have created a completely unique device that allows you to work in distillation and rectification mode with any apparatus. The automation is equipped with two highly accurate digital temperature sensors and a selection speed control valve. The main difference between Pervak light automation and conventional Start-Stop automation is the ability to use two “Dicrement” - two points to reduce the selection speed, which is necessary to maintain the reflux ratio and keep the alcohol content of the product within the limits specified by the operator. You can independently set a reduction in the selection rate when the specified temperature in the cube is reached, and also reduce the selection speed after each exit of the column beyond the aisles of a given alcohol shelf by the required amount. Thus, you will not have to manually monitor the temperature of the column during the rectification process and turn up the selection speed tap; this mode can be fully automated. The automation can control the operation of the heating element or induction cooker using an external solid-state relay (not included in the delivery package), which is connected to the automation using a 5.5mm connector (included in the delivery package), or using our Power Regulator with a built-in electricity meter
One of the main advantages of automatic rectification is the ability to exclude from the rectification mode the need to use a needle tap, which, as distillers know, can be difficult to configure to operate at exactly the required speed. Working with the selection valve, having once carried out the appropriate measurements, you will be able to subsequently set the exact speed of selection of the heads and bodies of the product in liters per minute. (See the Instructions tab, as well as video reviews)
Operating modes:
Control in the mode of distillation of mash into raw alcohol (Potstill):
Adjusting the power of the heating element/stove
Turning on/off the heating element/stove
Switching selection on and off (without the ability to adjust speed)
Automatic stop of the process when the set temperature in the cube is reached.
Control in rectification mode:
Adjusting the power of the heating element/stove
Turning on/off the heating element/stove
Switching on/off selection (with the ability to adjust speed)
Setting the temperature and hysteresis (temperature range) of the alcohol shelf
Setting the temperature and the value of reducing the sampling rate when the specified temperature in the cube is reached.
Setting the selection rate to decrease by a given amount when the column goes beyond the temperature limits of the alcohol shelf.
Automatic stop of the process when the set temperature in the cube is reached.
To set up and ensure smooth operation of the automation, we recommend that you read the instructions before work, and not after something has broken down! We also highly recommend watching video reviews in the appropriate tab! Studying the principles and algorithms of automation will make your work with it very simple and enjoyable.
