Description
The Across International R-Series Jacketed Glass Reactors are engineered for synthetic reactions involving a wide range of materials in controlled temperature and vacuum environments. These reactor systems provide precise reaction control through adjustable stirring speeds, controlled material feeding, and efficient vapor condensation.
Each system includes a high borosilicate glass reactor vessel, a pressure-equalizing feeding funnel, and a large surface condenser designed for solvent recovery. With adjustable stirring speeds and durable PTFE sealing components, the R-Series reactor is ideal for laboratory research, chemical synthesis, pharmaceutical development, and pilot-scale production.
Key Features
Precision Reaction Control
R-Series reactors allow accurate control over multiple reaction variables:
• Adjustable stirring speeds
• Controlled temperature circulation through the jacket
• Vacuum operation capability
• Uniform material feeding through pressure-equalizing funnel
This allows precise optimization of chemical synthesis and laboratory reactions.
FREE Thermal Insulation Jacket Included ($459 Value)
Each reactor includes a custom thermo insulation jacket designed specifically for Ai glass reactors.
Benefits include:
• Extends recirculating chiller lifespan
• Allows lower temperature operation
• Reduces energy consumption
• Viewing window allows monitoring of reaction material
Optional Dual-Jacket Reactor Design
Dual jacket models allow vacuum to be drawn from the outer jacket, which provides:
• Improved temperature stability
• Protection of circulating fluid temperature
• Reduced frost formation on vessel exterior
• Clear visibility of reaction material
High-Quality Borosilicate Glass Construction
All glass components are manufactured from high borosilicate glass 3.3, providing:
• Excellent chemical resistance
• High thermal shock resistance
• Durability in laboratory environments
Adjustable Stirring System
The reactor includes a 304 stainless steel agitator with PTFE liner designed to handle a wide range of viscosities.
Features include:
• Adjustable stirring speeds
• High torque performance
• Patented PTFE stirring rod bearing
• Quiet and reliable operation
Optional multi-layer stirring blades are available for specialized reactions.
Large Condenser Cooling Surface
The vertical condenser provides efficient condensation and recovery of vapors.
• Dual cooling coils
• Large surface area for condensation
• Vacuum connection for controlled pressure reactions
Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Support Frame
Each reactor system is mounted on a reinforced stainless steel frame with locking casters.
Benefits include:
• Excellent stability
• Easy mobility
• Pre-assembled glass vessel and frame for simplified installation
