The Parr Hydrogenation APR Standard Motor apparatus provides a reliable system for treating chemicals with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst at pressures up to 5 atmospheres (60 psig) and temperatures to 80°C. It is designed for synthesizing or modifying organic compounds by catalytic hydrogenation, reduction, or condensation, and is also suitable for any laboratory procedure involving vigorous mixing of liquid and gas in a glass reactor at low pressure.
Product Features
- Basic apparatus without heating mantle and temperature controller; option to add heating mantle and 4833 Temperature Controller
- Includes two extra 500 mL reaction bottles, twelve spare bottle stoppers, and six-foot pressure hose for filling the hydrogen tank
- Seals materials in reaction bottle connected to hydrogen reservoir; air removal by evacuation or hydrogen flushing
- Bottle shaking mechanism initiates reaction; bottles can be heated or cooled as necessary
- Progress monitored via pressure drop; calibration possible with known hydrogen acceptance compounds
- Convenient valves and fittings for admitting hydrogen, evacuating bottle, and filling tank without disturbing connection
- Separate pressure gauges for bottle and tank pressures
- Compact steel base assembly for bench or hood operation
- Polypropylene tubing gas connection avoids metal contact with charge
- Stainless steel tank, valves, and gauges suitable for hydrogen use
- Stainless stems, PTFE packing, and replaceable PCTFE seats ensure leak-proof control
- Available smaller 1-liter stainless tank option for semimicro operations
- Six-foot pressure hose for filling from commercial gas cylinders included
