When coupled with the Flowsyn integrated continuous flow reactor and a recirculating chiller/heater, Flowsyn Cold allows reactions to be performed at controlled temperatures between -70 and 150C.
Using the standalone reactor module, batch reactions can be run at higher, more convenient temperatures with similar or improved reaction outcomes, due to the improved control of mixing and temperature.
Reaction time is sped up and less cooling power is required.
Flowsyn Cold works with the standard Flowsyn coil reactors from 2 to 40ml volume, allowing for seamless scale-up.
An integrated purging inlet allows connection of a nitrogen line to prevent condensation and ice formation, so that reactions with PFA or PTFE reactors are clearly visible.
For temperature-controlled mixing, the system can be further enhanced by pairing with the mixer block - which is mounted on the cold coil reactor and is therefore also temperature controlled.
The Flowsyn in-built interface can be used to communicate with an external recirculating chiller such as the Huber Tango, Unistat or Petite Fleur.
A temperature probe located inside the Flowsyn Cold module ensures that accurate and uniform temperatures are maintained over the course of the reaction.
Compatibility with Flowsyn Multi-X allows multiple reactions at varying temperatures to be performed automatically and, with a heating recirculator and suitable thermal fluid, Flowsyn Cold can be heated to 150C.
