Large-Volume Reactors & Pressure Vessels

10 to 100 Liter Vessels for High-Temperature, High-Pressure Research

As demand has grown, so has the size of Parr vessels. Parr Instrument Company has expanded our standard stirred reactors and pressure vessel volumes to now include 10 liter to 100 liter vessel sizes. The geometry, features, and operation are very similar to that of smaller Parr reactors, but with a volume intermediate between lab-scale and traditional production scale reactors.

Parr’s Series 4555 Stirred Reactors and Series 4675 Pressure Vessels offer volumes between 10 liter and 40 liters. These volumes work well for a first scale-up step from smaller laboratory scale equipment.

The larger 8500 Stirred Reactors and 8700 General Purpose Pressure Vessels with volumes ranging from 50 to 100 liters are ideally suited for larger scale-up, pilot work, and small-scale production.

Larger operating volumes may also be obtained by creating a Parallel Reactor System out of any of Parr’s stirred reactors or pressure vessels.
