Supercritical Fluid Technologies introduces a new series of stirred reactors for high pressure chemistry. The HPR Series Reactors have been designed for researchers who are interested in performing pressurized chemical reactions in their laboratories. Whether it is high pressure chemical synthesis or process development, the HPR Series is an excellent unit for those applications.
The reactors range in size from 50 ml to 8 liters and may be operated up to 10,000 psi and 350°C. The reactors have a magnetically coupled impeller for optimal mixing. All high pressure components are ASME rated and protected by a rupture disc for safe operations. These laboratory benchtop models are ideal for applications where repetitive use makes convenience a necessity, such as catalytic studies, polymerization, hydrogenation, oxidation, isomerization, and dehydrogenation. All sizes are supplied as ready-to-use instruments requiring only utility connections prior to operation. The reactors are compact instruments that fit easily into a fume hood. Their modular design makes it easy and cost effective to alter the unit's basic configuration, adapting it to meet new or evolving application needs.
All functions are controlled by an integrated processor with a full color touch screen: Closed loop temperature control, closed loop speed control, pressure indication, over-temperature limit control, ramp/soak programming of temperature and mixer speed, RS-232 communications port. Options include vessel windows, additional ports, cooling coils, sample loops, and reagent addition modules.
