Radleys' Reactor-Ready Pilot is a universal, pilot scale, jacketed reaction system for use with a range of vessels from 5 to 20 litres.
Developed following the success of the bench-top Reactor-Ready (100ml to 5-litre vessels), Reactor-Ready Pilot is suitable for process development, scale-up, pilot and kilo labs.
This single reactor workstation can replace multiple frameworks, saving fume hood space and costs on multiple set-ups, the firm says.
Saffron Walden, Essex-based Radleys manufactures a range of interchangeable vessels with 1.25 to 1 ratio to mimic plant scale reactors. All vessels operate across a temperature range of –70°C to +230°C.
Innovative features include quick-release clamp and hose couplings allowing rapid vessel change-over, without the need for tools. Wide bore hose and vessel connections offer maximum flow rates, effective heating/cooling performance and easy thermofluid drain down during vessel exchange. Powerful overhead stirring up to 800rpm is possible through the self-aligning stirrer coupling.
