Reactor vessel and clamping mechanism
Configuration with single-walled reactor vessel
NOTICE
Secure the reactor vessel using
the clamping strap on the
stand. Screw the hose adap-
ters to the tempering hoses.
The single-walled reactor vessel is directly centred with and
connected to the reactor cover using the lock ring.
Position the stainless steel cover plate on the tempering
bath and centre the vessel with the cork ring underneath
the reactor cover. Lower the stand as far as the top glass
edge and secure the glass vessel by closing the clamping
lever on the lock ring.
When you insert the vessel, check that the sealing contact
surface of the glass vessel is undamaged and that the seal
on the reactor cover fits properly.
All sealing rings on the reactor cover are made of FFPM
(perfluoroelastomer).
Dispersing elements (ULTRA TURRAX), temperature sensors,
flow breakers and other accessories can be fitted to the
free connectors. In order to do this, unscrew the threaded
connector plug from the cover using the pin provided and
then fit the device (e.g. LR 2000.60 temperature sensor) in
its place.
The lock ring used to secure the reactor is located on the
rim of the cover.
The clamping force of the lock ring can be set when it is
open using the adjuster screw.
Configuration with double-walled reactor vessel
The LR 2000.1 double-walled reactor vessels without bot-
tom discharge valve and LR 2000.2 double-walled reactor
vessels with bottom discharge valve are set onto the cork
ring provided.
1. Connect the metal adapter on the glass tubing connec-
tor to the coupling (quick-release) LT 5.25.

2. Connect the LT 5.25 to the tempering hoses.
3. Then connected the fully assembled hoses to the circu-
lation thermostat.
Lower the drive unit including reactor cover and anchor
stirrer and connect the reactor vessel to the cover by closing
the lock ring. Firstly check that the sealing surface on the
glass vessel is intact and that the seal on the reactor cover
fits properly.
