The two black sealing O-rings, diameter: 46 mm, are mounted in the extraction
head gasket and the filter unit.
The black sealing O-ring in the extraction head gasket ensures that the extraction agent
cannot leak upwards, meaning that the extraction agent flows down through the
ADDIPURE PEO extractor and out via the opening in the filter unit with the 3-layer PEO
filter system.
The second black sealing O-ring in the filter unit ensures that the extraction agent can
only pass through the round opening via the filter system.
The ADDIPURE PEO extractor black sealing O-rings are resistant against extraction
agents such as ADDIPURE Dimethyl Ether (DME) and ADDIPURE n-Butane.
The sealing O-rings may develop fine tears, depending on the number of extractions
performed or the age of the rings. If the sealing O-rings become hard and brittle like
this, they need to be replaced. This will ensure that the extraction agent flows down
correctly through the extraction tube and out through the filter unit.
