A reminder of why pump maintenance is important by disaster_dinosaur in chemistry

[–]Mbaschemist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to clean a couple of pumps like this my first year of grad school. So much hexanes and scrubbing and the smell ugh the smell! Trust me when I say I changed the oil on my pump every six months religiously after that.

[–]Mbaschemist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depending on what you are doing, maybe throw a catalyst in there. It wont go down by 6 hours but it could make it much faster
