Ordinary VS explosion-proof: full comparison of glass reactors

May. 09. 2024

Explosion-proof double-layer glass reactor is a glass experimental equipment specially designed to avoid dangerous situations that may occur during reactions, such as explosions and fires. It can be used in chemical laboratories for a variety of operations such as extraction, distillation and stirring. Compared with ordinary double-layer glass reactors, its main features are safety and explosion-proof functions. Safety: The explosion-proof glass reactor is the same as the general glass reactor in that they are made of high-strength double-layer borosilicate glass material and designed as a double-layer kettle body, which can effectively resist the pressure and pressure during the reaction process. temperature changes to ensure the safety of the experiment. The difference is that the explosion-proof glass reactor uses special materials and designed explosion-proof motors and explosion-proof electrical appliances to prevent the glass reactor from exploding in accidental circumstances, making it safer. Explosion-proof function: The explosion-proof double-layer glass reactor controller has an explosion-proof function, which can effectively prevent toxic, flammable and explosive gases from entering the inside of the equipment even if an accident occurs. Prevent the equipment from generating sparks or static electricity, ensure that it does not cause fire or explosion in the surrounding gas, and avoid more serious accidents. The choice of which type of glass reactor to use depends on the specific experimental needs and safety requirements, which needs to be noted. If the experiments you conduct include high temperature, high pressure or dangerous reactive substances, then it is a wiser choice to choose an explosion-proof glass reactor to ensure the safety of the experiment. If the experimental conditions are relatively stable, an ordinary glass reactor may be sufficient to meet the needs. Before making a decision, it is recommended to consult a professional or supplier for more accurate advice.

In one minute, briefly understand the condenser of the rotary evaporator

Apr. 25. 2024

The rotary evaporator uses a rotating flask, which is placed in a water bath and heated while rotating to promote diffusion and evaporation of the solution in the bottle. Under vacuum, the material will form a large-area film on the bottle wall to expand the evaporation area, and then undergo cooling. The condenser is cooled and then collected into a collection bottle. It can be used in pilot experiments in the fields of biology, medicine, chemical industry, food, etc., and also plays a big role in the processing of high-value samples. It forms a supporting device with a diaphragm vacuum pump, a circulating cooler, etc.

Tips for maintaining low-temperature coolant circulation pump to keep the equipment running smoothly

Apr. 24. 2024

The use of the cryogenic coolant circulation pump is simple, but regular maintenance is very important. Many things that appear to be malfunctions are actually caused by a lack of regular maintenance. The electrical power of the low-temperature coolant circulation pump and the heat taken away by the refrigerant need to be discharged through the front ventilation radiator. If the vents are clogged with dust, lint, etc., it will affect the heat emission and thus affect the cooling effect. Generally speaking, the decrease in cooling capacity is caused by poor ventilation or excessive ambient temperature. For low-temperature coolant circulation pumps, the general working temperature is set at 20°C, which is suitable for the growth of microorganisms. Over time these microorganisms can clog the filter, causing poor water flow and a noisy pump.
