Stirred Reactor
This reactor is from the Series 4560 Mini Reactors of Parr company. Although they are called “Mini” reactors, they offer a range of sizes large enough to work with significant sample sizes, yet small enough to be handled with ease. Choosing the high temperature option (HT) boosts the maximum temperature to 500 °C, but reduces the MAWP to 2000 psi (138 bar). Standard Mini reactors can be converted to high temperature reactors (500 °C max temperature and 2000 psi MAWP) by changing the head assembly (contains cone connections, high temperature valves, and graphoil gasket) replacing the heater with a ceramic fiber heater and replacing the split-ring. Contact Parr Instrument Company for details.
Internal and external space is limited in these small vessels, gas entrainment impellers, catalyst baskets, condensers and other options are available. It can also be easily converted from one size to another by simply substituting a longer or shorter cylinder with the corresponding internal fittings and heaters. The support system for this reactor is designed specifically to provide stability at stirring speeds up to 1700 rpm, in a compact mounting small enough to fit into a laboratory hood.
