Large Volume Reactor Systems

Parr Instrument Company's large volume stirred reactors and pressure vessels are offered in 30 L, 50 L, 100 L and other large volumes.

Model 4559 with a 30 liter volume is perfect for a first scale-up step from smaller laboratory scale equipment. The larger 8500 Stirred Reactor Series with volumes ranging from 50 to 100 liters are ideally suited for scale-up or pilot work. 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.

Large volume reactors are commonly used in the food, petroleum, petrochemical, and fine chemical industries.

Features include:

  • up to 1900 psi
  • up to 350 °C
  • manual or electric head lift
  • manual or actuated bottom drain valves
  • heating & cooling options
