The Reactor-Ready Filter Lab Reactor combines reaction and filtration in a single jacketed vessel, providing a streamlined solution for crystallization, reaction workups, and product isolation. By integrating synthesis and filtration into one temperature-controlled system, the reactor eliminates the need to transfer material to a separate filtration setup, helping to save time and reduce product losses.
The system can be added to an existing Reactor-Ready framework or supplied as a dedicated filter reactor.
Precise temperature-controlled filtration
Reactor-Ready Filter Lab Reactor uses fully jacketed glass filter vessels that extend the jacket down to the filter plate, providing accurate temperature control throughout the entire vessel during both synthesis and filtration.
The system is available with 1 L and 2 L jacketed filter vessels and supports jacket temperatures from -30 °C to +180 °C. It also accepts the full range of Reactor-Ready Standard and Process vessels, providing additional flexibility for different applications.
Efficient solid-liquid separation
The filter assembly is designed to deliver efficient solid-liquid separation while minimizing hold-up volume. A unique filter support plate aligns the filter base with the vessel, allowing tool-free assembly and simplifying product recovery after filtration.
Key features include:
- Fully jacketed filter vessels for temperature-controlled synthesis and filtration
- Efficient solid-liquid separation with minimal hold-up
- Rapid vessel exchange using quick-release vessel clamps and hose couplings
- Compatibility with leading brands of overhead stirrers for agitated slurries and filtrations
- Innovative hose manifolds for easy thermofluid drain-down
Jacketed borosilicate glass vessels
The precision-engineered borosilicate glass vessels incorporate several design features to improve performance and usability.
- The thermal jacket extends to the filter plate for uniform temperature control
- A polished DN100 flat flange, combined with an FEP-encapsulated O-ring and PTFE collar, provides a leak-tight seal between the vessel and lid
- The straight-sided vessel interior allows unrestricted filtration
- A wide DN150 bottom flange provides easy access to the filter cake after filtration
Filter assembly for easy product recovery
The filter plate assembly is designed to simplify filtration and product collection. Its gasket and O-ring sealing system helps reduce the risk of leaks, while the wide bottom flange and swivel filter support plate allow quick cake retrieval and straightforward reassembly after filtration.
The filter base accepts both pre-cut filter membranes and membranes cut to size by the user. Each system includes a Filter Membrane Evaluation Kit containing six different membrane types for evaluation.
Components designed for reliable filtration
The Reactor-Ready Filter Lab Reactor incorporates several specialized components to improve filtration performance:
- Glass bottom outlet valve with a removable design for easy cleaning, a 15 mm bore for efficient drainage, and a zero dead-space design to minimize product loss. The threaded outlet allows connection to a collection vessel and vacuum pump for vacuum-assisted filtration
- Filter plates available in PTFE or PEEK. PTFE provides excellent chemical compatibility over a temperature range of -30 °C to +120 °C, while PEEK extends the operating range to -30 °C to +180 °C with good chemical compatibility
- Sintered glass membrane support to protect filter media during filtration
- Aluminum filter plate cup to maintain filter plate rigidity and ensure reliable sealing
- Silicone and Viton gasket O-rings are supplied with each kit to support different operating conditions
By combining reaction, temperature-controlled filtration, and product isolation in a single vessel, the Reactor-Ready Filter Lab Reactor provides an efficient workflow for crystallization and filtration applications while reducing manual handling and material loss.
