Bolted Closure

The bolted closure reactor is a versatile high pressure & high temperature, laboratory batch reactor. It is used for chemical synthesis of corrosive, hazardous & very reactive chemicals / petrochemicals as well as materials research. The 5,500 psi @ 650°F (379 bar @ 343°C) pressure rating is based on the stress level limits of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII Division 1. See the "Bolted Closure Pressure Vessels" bulletin for pressure ratings at other temperatures.

Bolted Closure: Stirred Reactors
The highest pressure rating of the standard laboratory stirred reactors


FEATURES

  • 316SS & HASTELLOY® C-276 materials are standard; other corrosion resistant alloys are offered

  • Metal-to-metal seals resists chemicals & extreme temperature

  • Standard capacity range of 300 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 tank 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
