Case Study: PRESTO A40 Process system

Heating up of an QVF 6 l reactor from -20 °C to +20 °C with a PRESTO A40 Process system

Objective

This case study tests the heating capacity of the JULABO PRESTO A40 Process system with a 6 l glass reactor. The PRESTO A40 is connected to the reactor via two 2 m metal hoses. The PRESTO A40 Process system has been programmed to heat up from -20 °C to +20 °C.
