The AE Closure is
a self-sealing vessel that utilizes internal pressure to tighten the seal.
This is known as the Bridgman effect, based on the principle of unsupported
area. With the standard all-metal gasket, this unit can operate safely
at very high temperatures and pressures. The closure design allows for
easy opening and closing. With standard volumes from 100 to 2,000 ml,
the AE Closure is an effective tool for laboratory, pilot plant, or production
applications

BENEFITS
Capable of working temperatures
up to 1,200°F, this time proven closure enables operation of the unit
not only at very high temperatures, but high pressures as well. Because
of its self sealing design, the higher the pressure (within stated
limits) the tighter and more reliable the seal. Opening and closing
of this vessel is easily done, and the seal ring has high life expectancy
even at extreme operating conditions.
