The purpose of a TIANTAI whiskey distillery helmet

More and more breweries are asking TIANTAI distillery system, and ask us which shape of helmet is better. So what's the purpose of a whiskey distillery helmet?
Copper whiskey helmet removes sulfur and reduces foaming , allow the expansion of gases for a small increase in passive reflux and vapour-to-surface-area contact during the distillation process. The addition of a whiskey helmet below a column also allows a small pressure drop in rising vapors. Traditional whisky helmets help to blend vapors and produce a robust full flavor whiskey and brandy.

What are the shape of Helmet?
Common designs include plain, ball, lantern, and tray-inserts (in order of rectification).

During distillation, reflux is essentially a purification step (aka rectification) where liquid is vaporized and condenses back into itself.  Rectification is closely tied to the volatility of the components of the matrix.  Compounds with lower volatility (water) will readily participate in reflux, therefore enriching compounds with higher volatility (ethanol) in the spirit-stream.  In general, this creates a lighter flavor profile with higher alcohol content. 
 
For onion helmet, it is better for brand, for whiskey, ball and Lantern is better.
If you plan to distill more multi spirits,ball helmet is common used.
