Pre-configured System
Atlas Potassium 3 Bar Pressure System
A modular 3 bar pressure reactor system that can be controlled automatically or manually. Available with reactor volumes from 100 mL to 3 L that can be changed in minutes without the need for tools.
At a glance
The Atlas Potassium 3 Bar System is designed for applications where elevated pressures are required, such as hydrogenations and carbonylations, or high-vacuum applications.
The basic system allows automatic temperature control from -80 °C to +200 °C, and stirrer control of up to 800 RPM or 2000 RPM, as well as and pressure sensing.
- Reactor volumes from 100 mL to 3 L
- Automatic temperature control (-80 °C to +200 °C)
- Stirrer control (up to 800 RPM or 2000 RPM)
1. Powerful reaction control
The system can be controlled using the Atlas base or the Atlas PC Software providing graphical display of pressures, temperatures, etc. Options include the Pressure Control Module for total precise pressure control and the Gas Selection Module for automated selection of up to 3 gases. Mass flow meters and controllers can also be integrated.
2. Wide Vessel Range with Seamless Interchangeability
Seamlessly drain the oil from your jacketed reactor using the Oil Drain Unit and change reactors in minutes. The system has a wide range of vessels all rated to 3 bar, including 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2 L or 3 L with or without a vacuum jacket. The tool-free vessel clamp enables the reactors to be supported to ensure safe vessel change without any fuss or spillages.
3. Safe and convenient
The Atlas Potassium 3 bar system combines all the great user features of Atlas with all the safety features you would expect from a pressure system. It is equipped with a factory set maximum pressure burst disc and pressure relief valve to ensure the glass reactor can never see an unexpected pressure rise. The safety enclosure has been designed to provide that extra peace of mind and to ensure a very safe laboratory.
4. Precise temperature control
The system has a wide temperature range from -80 to +200 °C with accurate temperature control using either the touch screen base or PC control software. Simply connect a compatible circulator to the base unit or PC software and precision temperature algorithms will ensure your process performs without issues.
5. Easy to use
Consistent with all the systems in the Atlas range, no tools are required allowing simple twist and click configuration of the apparatus, large displays and intuitive control from the base unit or PC software.
What our customers say
We run two Atlas 3 Bar reactor systems in parallel, and can quickly and easily configure the reactors for advanced applications such as calorimetry and crystallization control”
