Case Study: PRESTO W56 Process system

Cooling a Büchiglas 50 l reactor from +20 °C to lowest possible temperature with a PRESTO W56 Process system

Objective

This case study tests the lowest temperature of the JULABO PRESTO W56 Process system with a 50 l glass reactor. The PRESTO W56 is connected to the reactor via two 2 m metal hoses. The PRESTO W56 Process system cools from +20 °C to -47 °C maximum low temperature.
