8.
Connect cooling water to the magnetic
drive. See Instruction Manual No.
234M.
9.
Connect tubing to the rupture disc
outlet and run to a safely vented area.
See Instruction Manual 231M.
10. Note the voltage and amperage
requirement stamped on the controller
data plate, and then plug the power
cord into an appropriate outlet. Power
for these reactors should be drawn
from a grounded outlet capable of
carrying up to the full current rating of
the reactor.
11. If an electric stirrer motor is supplied,
turn the speed control knob fully
counterclockwise on the Reactor
Controller, turn on the motor switch and
slightly increase the speed for a short
run to check the stirrer drive system but
do not turn on the heater, put heater
toggle switch in center position (OFF).
There must always be a vessel in the
heater when it is turned on, and the
vessel and heater sizes must match. If
the heater is operated without proper
size vessel in contact with the mantle,
the mantle may overheat and fail.
HEATERS
The 1 gallon and 1.5 gallon reactors are
equipped with 230 volt, 2800 watt heaters.
These heaters are designed to provide
uniform heat distribution to the vessels.
A thermowell is included in the heater to
accommodate an external thermocouple for
contact with the outside vessel wall.
