150L Essential Oil Distiller

The corrosion-resistant workhorse for commercial hydrosol and essential oil production.

If you've ever watched a copper still develop patina after distilling citrus or witch hazel, you already know the struggle. This 150L stainless steel system was built to solve that problem. It eliminates corrosion, eliminates metallic taste transfer, and eliminates the guesswork of monitoring separation. What you get instead is a clean, repeatable, and highly scalable production tool for premium essential oils and hydrosols.

Built for the botanicals that eat other stills alive.

Citrus peel. Rose. Witch hazel. These are some of the most demanding materials a distiller can work with—and they will destroy a poorly made still. This system is constructed entirely from food-grade SUS304 stainless steel, making it impervious to the acids that corrode copper and aluminum. There is no patina to manage, no special cleaning agents required, and no risk of your oil picking up a metallic note. Just pure, true-to-plant aroma, batch after batch.

See your separation happen in real time.

Most essential oil stills force you to guess where the oil ends and the hydrosol begins. Not this one. The vertical multi-stage separator features multiple glass viewing windows at different heights, letting you watch the separation process unfold in real time. You can see exactly when to pull your oil, when to switch to hydrosol collection, and when to stop the run. It is a level of visibility that turns a blind process into a precise one.

A conical head that works with you, not against you.

The conical distillation head is not just a design choice—it is a functional one. The tapered shape promotes smooth vapor expansion and reduces entrainment, meaning fewer unwanted compounds make it into your final product. The large, quick-opening manway on top makes loading botanical material fast and cleaning even faster. A built-in pressure gauge and sight glass keep you informed at every stage of the run.

From pilot batches to commercial volumes, without the headache.

The 150L capacity is the sweet spot for producers who have outgrown a 50L benchtop unit but are not yet ready for a full industrial line. It handles small commercial orders with ease, while the modular, sanitary Tri-clamp design makes it simple to disassemble, clean, and reassemble between different botanical runs. If you are ready to scale up without sacrificing quality or hygiene, this is your system.

150L Stainless Steel Essential Oil Distiller-Product Advantages

1. Material & Craftsmanship

• 100% Food-Grade 304 Stainless Steel Construction: This unit is fabricated entirely from high-purity 304 stainless steel, ensuring absolutely zero chemical reaction or metallic leaching into the distillate. This inert material is the ideal choice for producing exceptionally pure, unadulterated essential oils and hydrosols that meet stringent cosmetic, therapeutic, and food-grade standards.

• Mirror-Polished Interior & Exterior: Every wetted surface and external panel is meticulously polished to a mirror finish. This ultra-smooth surface dramatically reduces the adhesion of organic residues, plant waxes, and essential oils, ensuring maximum hygiene, preventing cross-batch contamination, and making the system incredibly easy to clean (CIP friendly). Externally, it delivers a stunning, premium, and modern aesthetic.

• Precision Conical Expansion Chamber (Funnel Head): The boiler is topped with a distinctive conical stainless steel expansion chamber. This design allows hot, volatile vapors to expand and cool slightly before entering the gooseneck, effectively preventing "bumping" and carry-over of boiling plant material, resulting in a cleaner, purer aromatic profile.

• Integrated Glass & Stainless Steel Separation Column: The system features a tall, freestanding collection column that combines a glass essential oil separator (Florentine flask) with a stainless steel housing. This hybrid design allows for visual, real-time separation of essential oil from hydrosol, while the stainless steel components ensure structural durability and complete chemical inertness.

2. Functional Design

• 150L Commercial Botanical Batch Capacity: Specifically sized for commercial essential oil production, aromatherapy distilleries, and botanical extraction facilities. The 150L working volume allows for the extraction of substantial yields of premium essential oil and hydrosol from flowers, herbs, roots, and spices.

• Integrated Essential Oil & Hydrosol Separation System: The dedicated freestanding separator column allows the distiller to continuously and visually separate the lighter essential oil from the heavier hydrosol based on density. The tall, vertical design provides ample residence time for complete phase separation, ensuring zero cross-contamination and allowing for the precise collection of both high-value products (pure oil and pure floral water) in a single continuous run.

• Optimized Vapor Path for Aromatic Purity: The combination of the conical expansion head and the vertical stainless steel condenser creates an optimal, rapid vapor path that minimizes thermal degradation of sensitive botanical compounds. This results in a superior, high-fidelity essential oil that accurately captures the true essence and scent of the raw plant material.

• Precision Multi-Valve Monitoring & Control: The boiler and collection column are equipped with high-accuracy dial thermometers and multiple control valves (visible on the left side and on the separator). This allows the operator to precisely manage temperature, pressure, and vapor flow, ensuring delicate botanical compounds are not destroyed by excessive heat, resulting in a consistent, high-quality product batch after batch.

• Large Front Manway for Easy Loading & Cleaning: The boiler features a wide, rectangular front manway door with a heavy-duty clamp. This provides effortless access for loading bulky plant material and performing thorough deep cleaning of the stainless steel inner bowl after each distillation run.

• Clean Electric/Steam Heating & Stable Support: Optimized for clean electric heating or gentle steam injection, the boiler guarantees a controlled, even boil that prevents scorching of the botanical material. The heavy-duty, adjustable stainless steel legs provide absolute stability on any factory floor or workbench, ensuring a safe and secure distillation process.
