Media Bros Medium flow CRX

                                                   

Description:

Introducing CRX Medium Flow™ (CRX-M™), a not-quite-powder/fine-grain premium filter media formulated for non-reactive, high flow and high-pressure hydrocarbon extraction. Its texture is designed to replace traditional powdered media like B80 without channeling and clogging issues commonly encountered with conventional powders.

Extractors accustomed to traditional powders like B80 will find that CRX-M™ offers similar flow properties but with the added benefit of superior terpene retention.

Like all of our premium blends, CRX-M™ is non-reactive, ensuring it’s safe and easy to handle in your lab setting. It eliminates the need for extensive clean-up, saving you time and effort.

CRX-M™ has all the benefits of its more granular twin, the flagship CRX™. It is a “perfect scrub” media, ideal for high-quality biomass and nug run processing. You want total control over flow and ensure the terpenes and flavonoids are retained from plant to extracted oil.

Extraction labs vary in size, and so does our range of filter media. Our CRX-M™ product is available in three convenient packaging options: a 1.5 kg pouch, a 10 kg bucket, and a 100 kg drum. Whether operating on a small scale or running an extensive industrial process, we have the perfect packaging to meet your needs.

Before you get started, please remember this:

As CRX™ and CRY™ are not powders designed not to absorb moisture before use, no baking or preparation is needed. For optimal success, ensure your flow is gentle and consistent.

RATIOS 

Solvent to Biomass: ratios range from 6:1 to 10:1, depending on the quality of the plant matter you are distilling—lower ratios for top-tier biomass and higher ratios for older or lower-quality biomass.

Media to Biomass: Load 150 – 250 grams of filter media into filtration housing for every 1 lb of biomass. The media quantity used is dependent on the quality of the biomass. Higher-quality biomass requires less media. Lower-quality biomass requires more media. The lookup table can be used as a reference, but because every kind of plant matter is different, you will need to experiment a little bit to achieve the best results. That said, this chart is an excellent baseline from which to start.

TEMPS

To ensure optimal performance, keep the temperature at -10°C or below while using the media. Our media is designed to prevent clogging.

FLOW

When transferring from the biomass vessel to the recovery vessel, maintain a maximum flow rate of 1 GPM. Our media performs best with a consistent and gentle flow.

To prevent channeling, avoid sudden hydraulic surges through the CRC column.

A shower or initial fill of the column is highly recommended for optimal results.

YIELD

Any lost yield can be fully recovered by flushing the media with solvent. Most users report achieving substantial yield gains by maintaining high solvent-to-biomass ratios or flushing our media after an extraction transfer.
