WHAT A ONE COLUMN MACHINE RUNS
Capacity scales with columns, and this machine has one of them.
4,536 g (10 lb) of cured, dry or trim material per run, in a single 6 in x 48 in column with a 7 in liquid CO2 jacket. That is half what the 20 LB does and a quarter of the 40 LB Double Barrel, on the same 250 psi (17.2 bar) ASME vessels and the same fully passive recovery. Nothing about the engineering is smaller, only the column count.
Which is why we will usually point you at the 20 LB. This machine is $135,000, or $147,100 with the Aqua-Tech CRC column. The 20 LB is $160,000 and doubles the run. If floor space or budget genuinely caps you at one column, this is a real machine and we still build it to order. If neither does, the 20 LB is the better buy and it is standard production rather than built by arrangement. Call 541-330-6409 and we will tell you which one your room and your throughput actually want.
Capacity for this machine is from 3P Certz reports ECR-180021, ECR-190003 and ECR-190004. The 40 LB figure is from ECR-250902-R0. The 20 LB figure is the one published in our system sizing calculator. Vessels on all three are ASME Section VIII Division 1 U stamped at 250 psi (17.2 bar).
Price is $135,000, or $147,100 with the Aqua-Tech CRC column.
HOW TO BUY IT
- Tell us your throughput, your room and your permit situation. The System Sizing Calculator will show you, on your own numbers, whether a 10 LB or a 20 LB fits. We will tell you honestly whether a 10 LB is the right machine for you or whether you should be buying the 20 LB.
- Built to order. Lead time is quoted on the phone, not published, because we build this one by arrangement.
- Paid in full before anything ships. We do not offer net 30 or purchase order terms.
- Ships LTL freight. Freight is quoted and invoiced after the crate is measured, not charged at checkout.
| Without CRC column | $135,000 |
| With Aqua-Tech CRC column | $147,100 |
| Aqua-Tech CRC column, as an option | $12,100 |
The 20 LB system is what comes out of the shop as standard production, and it is what the published 20 week lead time applies to. If you want something smaller than a 20 LB, this is the page to call about.

Chilling and heating equipment is not included. Liquid CO2 installation is done by your local gas supplier.
HOW THE MATERIAL COLUMN IS PACKED
Build it from the bottom up: sintered disc 50 micron dull side up, perforated plate, filter paper, two drop-in rings, then pack your material on top. The plate carries the paper. Paper laid straight on an open disc has nothing to sit on and tears through under differential pressure.
The full procedure for both this column and a color remediation column is in How to Stack a Material Column and a CRC Column.
BUILT, NOT RESOLD
- N.B. Oler is an ASME U stamp shop, with certificate reinstatement expected early 2027. The pressure vessels are welded in our own shop in Bend, Oregon.
- All stainless is fabricated here. Gaskets, filter cartridges and filter socks are purchased parts and are not represented as ours.
- Full P.E. report on file. The 10 LB is certified under 3P Certz reports ECR-180021, ECR-190003 and ECR-190004.
WHY WE PUSH THE 20 LB INSTEAD
| 10 LB | 20 LB | |
| Cured, dry or trim per run | 4,536 g (10 lb) | 9,072 g (20 lb) |
| Live resin per run | 8,165 g (18 lb) | 16,329 g (36 lb) |
| Material columns | One | Two |
| Price | $135,000 | $160,000 |
| Lead time | By arrangement, quoted on the phone | 20 weeks, published |
| Room to grow | None built in | CRC column included, and the rack takes a second pair of columns later |

Double the material per run for about 19 percent more money, on a rack you can add to, with a lead time we will commit to in writing. That is the whole argument, and it is why we send most buyers to the 20 LB. If the 10 LB footprint or budget is the one that fits your room, call and say so.
CONSUMABLES
If you already own a 10 LB, we stock every wear part for it: Viton gaskets, cryogenic PRVs, 6 in high pressure tri clamps with M12 bolt kits, 4A molecular sieve beads, 6 in filter socks, sintered tri clamp filters and the perforated plate with two drop-in rings. Quantities on a 10 LB are smaller than the published 20 LB figures, so take them from the parts table in your Operators Manual rather than scaling.
| ASME U STAMP | Built to ASME Section VIII Division 1. |
|---|---|
| FITS | Butane, propane and blends, crude or live resin, at 4,536 g (10 lb) cured, dry or trim, or 8,165 g (18 lb) live resin, per run. One 6 in x 48 in material column, a 12 in ASME recovery vessel, a 100 lb ASME solvent tank and a 6 in x 24 in molecular sieve. Optional Aqua-Tech CRC column. Not an ethanol system. Chiller, hot water and liquid CO2 supply not included. |

COMMON QUESTIONS
How do I buy one?
Contact us to purchase. Call the shop at 541-330-6409 or use the contact page. The 10 LB is not sold through the cart, so there is no add to cart button on this page.
What does it cost?
$135,000 without the CRC column, $147,100 with the Aqua-Tech CRC column.
Is the price firm?
That is the published price for the standard build. Changes to the build change the price, which is one reason we want the phone call first.
Why can I not add it to the cart?
It is built to order and we want to talk through your room, your throughput and your permit situation before we take money for a machine this size.
I need something smaller than a 20 LB. What do I do?
Call 541-330-6409. This is the machine to ask about, and we will tell you honestly whether a smaller machine makes sense for you.
Why do you push the 20 LB?
Double the material per run for about 19 percent more money, with the CRC column included, on a rack that takes a second pair of columns later, with a 20 week lead time we commit to.
What does the CRC column add?
The Aqua-Tech CRC column adds $12,100 over the base price and gives you color remediation in line rather than as a separate step.
How much material per run?
4,536 g (10 lb) of cured, dry or trim material, or 8,165 g (18 lb) of live resin (fresh frozen).
What is the MAWP?
250 psi (17.2 bar) on the vessels.
What is the lead time?
Quoted on the phone. The 20 LB carries the published 20 week lead time. The 10 LB is built by arrangement, so the date depends on what is already in the shop.
I already own one. Do you still support it?
Yes. We stock every wear part and we still answer the phone on these machines.
Do you offer net 30 or purchase order terms?
No. Everything is paid in full before it ships.
How does it ship?
LTL freight, in a crate 70.5 in long x 63 in wide x 94.75 in tall weighing 1,850 lb. Freight is quoted and invoiced after the crate is measured, not charged at checkout.
