5400 Tubular Reactor System Preface Scope These instructions describe the installation, operation and maintenance of Parr Series 5400 Tubular Reactor System. They cover the basic steps to be followed installing these reactors and describe the function of all standard components. They are intended to be used in conjunction with several related instruction sheets listed in the following section.
5400 Tubular Reactor System Explanation of Symbols II On position, full power heater switch I On position, half power heater switch O Off Position ~ Alternating Current (AC) This CAUTION symbol may be present on the Product Instrumentation and literature. If present on the product, the user must consult the appropriate part of the accompanying product literature for more information. This CAUTION symbol indicates that the surface may be hot. Protective Earth (PE) terminal.
400 Tubular Reactor System heater assembly on to the base of the cart using the provided mounting holes. The gas feed rack is located on the left side of the cart and the reactor is on the right. The racks should be mounted to the cart using the provided bolts and wing nuts. These nuts should be checked periodically to ensure that they are tight. Cleaning & Maintenance Periodic cleaning may be performed on the exterior surfaces of the instrument with a lightly dampened cloth containing mild soap solution.
5400 Tubular Reactor System Installation by Parr Instrument Company. It must also be understood that lower pressure and temperature limits may be required for modified reactors and for vessels made of special alloys. Bolt the stand to the floor using the holes identified on the baseplate. Limits for vessels will be determined by the physical characteristics of the vessel material and will be prescribed on an individual basis.
5400 Tubular Reactor System Typical Components Reactor There are two basic styles of tubular reactors available from Parr Instrument Company. The smaller diameter reactors are available with either a 3/8” O.D. (model 5401) or a ½” O.D. (model 5402). The larger diameter reactors are available with either a 1” I.D. (model 5403) or a 1.5” I.D. (model 5404). Either style can be easily removed from the assembly for catalyst loading, cleaning or inspection.
5400 Tubular Reactor System 5400 Tubular Reactor System generally consists of one or more HPLC pumps rated for up toeither 1500 or 5000 psig. For best results, the pumps should be located on the bottom shelf of the reactor cart with the liquid supply source located on the upper shelf. The inlet to the pump should be connected using the tubing and filter assembly provided by the pump manufacturer with the pump.
5400 Tubular Reactor System For many Series 5400 Tubular Reactor Systems, the advanced controls provided by the 4871 Process Controller are preferred. The 4871 controller can monitor the temperature of each heated zone and control the temperature of each zone independently or by maintaining the outer temperatures based on the internal temperatures.
5400 Tubular Reactor System General Maintenance Notes Periodic Pressure Tests 1. Periodically inspect all electrical wiring and pressure connections for excessive corrosion. Suspect parts should be replaced by components only supplied by Parr Instrument Company. Each cylinder used in a Parr reactor system is tested under hydrostatic pressure to 1.3 times its maximum rating before it is released from the factory.
