How to extend the service life of double-layer glass reactor

How to extend the service life of double-layer glass reactor

Double glass reactor is a kind of experimental equipment widely used in academic research and industrial production,and its life can be prolonged if it is used and maintained correctly.

Here are some suggestions:

1.Proper Operation of the Reactor:Before using a double glass reactor,make sure you are familiar with and understand its operating manual.Follow the manufacturer's instructions and make appropriate adjustments as needed.

2.Control of temperature and pressure:Care must be taken to control temperature and pressure during the reaction process.The limits of the system should be known and mechanical stresses due to high pressure or temperature should be reduced where necessary.

3.Avoid chemical attack:Many chemicals can attack glass,so extra care must be taken when using the reactor.If possible,choose a reactor made of corrosion-resistant materials.

4.Regular inspection:Regularly inspect all parts of the reactor,including glass,seals,jacket,heating and cooling system,etc.,to make sure there is no wear or damage.

5.Cleaning and maintenance:Clean the reactor in time after use to avoid corrosion of the equipment caused by chemical reaction residues.Appropriate cleaning agents and tools should be used to avoid scratching or damaging the glass.

6.Avoid sudden temperature changes:Avoid rapid heating or cooling,as sudden changes in temperature may cause the glass to break due to excessive thermal stress.

7.CLEANING THE KETTLE:The kettle should be cleaned and dried after use to prevent residual substances from damaging the glass.Use appropriate cleaners and tools to clean the reactor.

8.PROTECT THE GLASS SURFACE:During operation,avoid using sharp tools or bumping the glass surface.If it is necessary to move the reactor,use appropriate tools to prevent damage to the glass.

9.STORING THE KETTLE:When the kettle is not in use,it should be stored properly and kept dry.Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or high temperatures/humidity.

10.Use suitable medium:the heating or cooling medium circulating in the jacket should be suitable for the material of the glass reactor,avoiding the use of corrosive medium to the glass.

11.Train the operator:Ensure that the operator is trained on how to properly operate and maintain the double glass reactor.

12.Routine maintenance:Frequent scheduled maintenance,such as replacing seals and lubricating moving parts,can extend the life of your double-glass reactor and prevent breakdowns.

13.Regular replacement of seals:Seals are wearing parts and should be inspected and replaced regularly to maintain good sealing performance.

14.Record Use:Record the use of the reactor,including time of use,reaction conditions,maintenance and overhaul history,etc.,to facilitate tracking of the status and performance of the equipment.

Through the above measures,the service life of the double-layer glass reactor can be effectively extended and its safety and efficiency in the process of use can be ensured.
