Case Study: PRESTO A40 Process system
Cooling a Chemglas 10 l reactor from +100 °C to 0 °C with a PRESTO A40 Process system
Objective
This case study tests the cooling capacity of the JULABO PRESTO A40 Process system with a 10 l glass reactor. The PRESTO A40 is connected to the reactor via two 2 m long metal hoses. The PRESTO A40 Process system has been programmed to cool down from +100 °C to 0 °C.
