How to configure Reactor-Ready Mini

1. Select Framework

Start by selecting one of two Reactor-Ready Mini frameworks:

Reactor-Ready Mini Pro – With draindown manifolds for rapid, mess-free vessel exchange. Ideal for saving space, time and money with a single workstation, swap vessels in minutes and without tools.
Reactor-Ready Mini Starter – For more limited budgets, connect your vessel directly to your circulator. Ideal if you don’t need to swap vessels regularly.

2. Select Vessel Kits

Reactor-Ready Mini accepts vessels from 50 ml to 500 ml, which are designed for excellent heat transfer and mixing. Choose between single and vacuum jacketed vessels, with the same scale-up-friendly geometry (1.25:1 height-to-diameter ratio) across the range.

Vessel kits simplify ordering vessels and accessories. Each kit includes a temperature probe and adapter, as well as an impeller matched to the vessel, making it easy to maintain uniform mixing across the volume range.

3. Select Overhead Stirrer

Reactor-Ready Mini is compatible with a range of compact overhead stirrers that accepts a 8 mm OD shaft. We recommend the Radleys RS20 Mini Control or Heidolph Hei-TORQUE Core overhead stirrers.

4. Select Circulator

Paired with the appropriate circulator / thermoregulator, Reactor-Ready Mini can be temperature-controlled between -70 °C and +230 °C jacket temperature. We recommend the Huber range, however Reactor-Ready Mini is compatible with any circulator with the correct hoses and adapters.

Our technical specialists can help with specifying the appropriate circulator for your application.

5. Select Control Software

For enhanced safety, precision, and reproducibility, you can add AVA reaction control software.

AVA allows you to easily control and log multiple devices from an array of leading manufacturers and instantly create detailed reports at the end of your experiment.
