Tubular Reactor with 360° Rotation

When an unusually long or heavy tubular reactor is needed, the logistics of removing the reactor from the stand for cleaning or loading and removing catalyst or other internal packing can be daunting. Parr has designed a mechanism integrated into a custom tubular reactor stand which not only secures the reactor and furnace during operation, but makes easy work of accessing and manipulating large tubular reactors.

The furnace is hinged such that it easily swings out of the way. Once clear of the furnace the tubular reactor support slides out to an extended position for easier access. The tubular reactor is then easily rotated and locked securely into a upright, horizontal or inverted position. This allows easy access to the inside of the reactor for cleaning, inspection, loading of catalyst or other internals, and gravity-assisted discharge of the same.
