1,000 ml Bolted Closure
Stirred Reactor
At a Glance
Volume: 1,000 ml
Vessel MAWP: 5,500 psi @ 650° F
(Design Pressure) (379 Bar @ 343° C)
Material of Construction: 316 Stainless Steel or
HASTELLOY® C-276
Principle of Operation
The Autoclave Engineers’ Bolted Closure Reactor has been
designed for reliable high pressure operation. The seal is a
metal gasket machined from the same material as the vessel.
Many combinations of standard components are available.
The cover of the unit remains fixed in the stand to permit
opening of the vessel without disassembling any process
connections. The body is easily removed and drops away
from the cover.

† The tube that forms the sparge tube is 3/16” O.D. and 1/8” I.D. with a plug in the end. Nine .031” diameter holes are drilled in the sparge ring to bubble gas into the reactor.
‡ The tube that forms the thermowell is 1/8” O.D. and 1/16” I.D. with a plug in the end. A 3/32” port is drilled in the cover to guide the thermocouple to the opening in the thermowell.
