Model 20.LE
Compact CO2 extraction system with dual-phase pumping
Rated capacity
6 – 9 lb biomass per run
The 20.LE is a compact CO2 extraction system with a 20 litre vessel and dual-phase (liquid and gas) pumping. It runs 6–9 lbs. of biomass per cycle at an optimum pressure of 1,800 PSI, with touch-screen graphic controls and remote tablet support.

Primary extraction — CO₂ recovers cannabinoids without leaving a hydrocarbon or ethanol solvent behind, and the fraction taken can be tuned by pressure and temperature. The 20.LE CO2 Extractor is well suited to:
Cannabis Extraction
Licensed cannabis extraction and processing facilities operating under state or national licence
Pharmaceutical
Pharmaceutical-grade extraction for CBD, THC, and other cannabinoid products
Food & Beverage
Food-grade extraction for essential oils, flavors, and botanical extracts
Regulated Facilities
Extraction facilities operating under documented quality and process controls

Best for
GMP and EU GMP context
GMP is a facility and process standard. It applies to the building, the procedures, the documentation and the people together — no extraction system carries a GMP certification on its own.
What decides whether a system helps or hinders an EU GMP programme is its material selection, hygienic design and the qualification documentation available for it. Our guide to EU GMP cannabis extraction equipment sets out what to look for and which questions to put to any supplier.
It uses CO₂ as the process solvent, recovering cannabinoids without leaving a hydrocarbon or ethanol solvent behind in the extraction step. The fraction taken can be tuned by pressure and temperature.
CO₂ is not a flammable solvent, so CO₂ extraction is typically not subject to the hydrocarbon extraction-room classification requirement. Final classification and ventilation requirements are determined by your local authority having jurisdiction during the facility code review.
GMP — including EU GMP — is a facility and process standard: it applies to the building, the procedures, the documentation and the people together, and no extraction system carries a GMP certification on its own. Whether a system helps or hinders an EU GMP programme comes down to its material selection, hygienic design and the qualification documentation available for it. Contact Decimal Engineering to discuss configuration options for your facility.
A current specification sheet for the 20.LE CO2 Extractor is available from Decimal Engineering on request, and customers receive access to a standard operating procedure (SOP) library for their equipment. Documentation packages to support IQ/OQ/PQ and facility turnover are available; scope varies by model and configuration.
