High Temperature, Bolted Closure Laboratory Batch Reactors The High Pressure, Bolted Closure reactors permit research to be conducted at extremely high temperatures and pressures. Autoclave Engineers has designed this line of reactors and specified the valves, fittings and tubing to be capable of 5,000 psi at up to 950°F (345bar @ 510°C)

Components used in all aspects of high pressure flow systems.
316SS & HASTELLOY® C-276 materials are standard; other corrosion resistant alloys
are offered
Metal-to-metal
seals resists chemicals and allows extreme temperature usage.
Standard capacity
range of 100 to 4,000 ml is used as a lab continuous stirred tank reactor
(CSTR) or slurry reactor
Process fittings
in the cover (one for adding powders e.g. catalysts) allows lowering
the body with lines attached
Sparging, charging,
blowpipe, sampling & cooling coil process connections are ideal for
most chemical reactor processes
The MagneDrive® magnetic mixer used in the stirred reactor eliminates dynamic seals
& assures trouble free mixing
The straight wall
design allows access to the full diameter & depth of the reactor once
the full size cover is removed
Optional process
control instrumentation measures & controls temperature, mixing speed
& pressure
High pressure reactor
equipment is delivered custom configured & after full functional testing
for fast & easy start-up
Obtain expert,
process equipment advice from the manufacturer & ongoing support from
the local, factory approved supplier
BENEFITS
The high pressure reactors can be customized with sightglasses, liners & high pressure analytical probes. Ease of cleaning & elimination of foot bearings reduces the risk of cross-contamination. It has indefinite service life & improved experimental repeatability compared to non-stirred autoclaves, laboratory bombs & reaction kettles. See AE Closure Ultra High Pressure Reactors for pressures above 5,000 psi (379 bar). See Easy Open Laboratory Reactors for pressures of 3,300 psi (227 bar) or less
