Introduction
The Berghof BR100 high pressure reactor is available in Stainless Steel SS 316Tl, Hastelloy C-4 , or Stainless Steel SS 316Tl with a PTFE insert and with no lid liner.
The useable pressure reactor volume can be varied by the employment of different reactor vessels ranging from 25 ml to 40 ml. Smaller volumes are available on request.
The pressure vessel is sealed by means of a conical flange lock and an O-ring. The lid offers a total of six connections which can be employed as follows:
- 1 x temperature probe submersion tube;
- 1 x metal rupture disc to safely limit the maximum pressure;
- 1 x pressure indicator;
- 1 x pressure relief valve;
- 2 x for any other purpose, e.g., a gas sampling valve or
- liquid sampling.
Temperature regulation is by means of a temperature probe in a submersion tube to measure the internal reactor temperature. Optionally, a second temperature probe can be employed to provide over-temperature protection.
