Starting a Reaction

Temperature Control

The allowable reaction temperature range on the Quest is

-40

+130.

For a particular

reaction, do not program a temperature set-point which exceeds the boiling point of the

reaction solvent.

Each side of the Quest may have a different set point. To achieve sub-ambient

temperatures, an external recirculating chiller is required. When using the chiller, only

connect it to one side of the Quest at a time.

WARNING When heating, the Reactor

Assembly will become hot. The symbol at the

right is to warn of hot surface. Use caution when

working near or on the Reactor Assembly.

Allow it to cool before attempting to access RVs.

Prior to starting a heating step, set both Manifold Control Valves to "Closed". This

prevents solvent loss during heating:
