PPX-1000
• Automated and labor-saving organic synthesis experiments, high-performance temperature control
♦ The Single Master is a compact personal model that meets the requirements of next-generation synthesis methods in organic chemistry and process chemistry R&D in the field of fine chemicals (pharmaceuticals, new materials, electronics, and chemicals).
Stirrer model Impeller model
◊ The Single Master is equipped with a system that can automatically change the cooling and dosage rate so that the temperature inside the vessel can be controlled and does not deviate from the reaction temperature. If an exothermic reaction occurs, the cooling and dosage can be automatically stopped, so you can leave the experiment unattended or conduct the experiment overnight.
◊ The newly developed aluminum block thermostatic chamber with water-cooled heating and cooling mechanism can adjust the temperature from -40 to 180°C. Even with tap water supply, cooling experiments to -40°C are possible.
◊ The aluminum block thermostatic chambers are safe and clean to use, with no oil hazard or splashing.
◊ The main unit allows for external temperature control (heating, cooling, isothermal, and ramp control) on its own. By combining it with optional components such as internal temperature control sensors, stirring devices (stirrers and impellers), syringe pumps for dosage control, and plunger pumps for continuous operation, a system can be configured to meet specific requirements.
◊ The reaction vessel is compatible with the ChemiStation PPV and can accommodate a synthesis scale of 150mL. The newly added vessel with an outflow nozzle allows for liquid extraction from the bottom of the reaction vessel. By connecting a Teflon® tube, continuous reactions (CSTR) can be achieved, enabling large-scale synthesis.
◊ With a wide range of options, we can meet various demands such as “stabilization of temperature control,” “enhancement of stirring power,” “reactions accompanied by intense heat generation,” “performing reactions at low temperatures,” “long-duration high-precision dispensing,” “rapid cooling and slow cooling,” and “the need for large-scale synthesis in a short time.”

• Component diagram
• Name of each parts
• Easy-to-read display
♦ Menu Screen
Equipped with the newly developed controller “eReact”. It allows for high-precision temperature control through simple settings and cascade control for essential parameters needed for condition evaluation (temperature, stirring, dosage).
◊ The display can be switched to English.
♦ Operation Screen
During operation, setting changes, stopping, modifying, and restarting reactions can be easily executed. Each parameter is monitored every second, allowing for a comprehensive overview of the system’s operating status.
♦ Data Report
With simple operation using the dedicated controller “eReact”, individual reaction parameters (temperature, stirring, dosage amount) can be operated with high precision, and it supports everything from temperature control to data logging, contributing to improving the research environment in the laboratory. It supports USB export and allows recorded data to be saved to an external memory.
• Capable of handling both batch and continuous operations
♦ It accommodates reaction conditions that were previously difficult to manage.
♦ The aluminum thermostatic chamber achieves a wide temperature control range (-40°C to 180°C) through a water-cooled Peltier system. By simply supplying water between 15°C and 30°C, cooling experiments down to -40°C, which were previously difficult, are now possible. Since water is used for heat exchange, it operates with a GWP value of zero, making it compliant with non-fluorocarbon and brine regulation requirements.
• Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)
♦ The system can be configured for both batch (discontinuous) and CSTR operations. By connecting multiple units and combining them with a reagent addition pump (optional), parallel or continuous reactions can be achieved. Depending on the experimental objectives, systems for temperature condition studies, dosage addition condition studies, two-stage continuous reactions, or scale-up synthesis can be configured. For CSTR, an elevation adjustment function of the aluminum thermostatic chamber is included to control the liquid level of the reaction solution.
• Internal Vessel Temperature Control (optional)
♦ The aluminum block thermostatic chamber is equipped with heating and cooling PID control, featuring a safety system that allows for adjustable cooling speed. By using an internal temperature sensor (optional), temperature settings can be configured for the reaction temperature (ramp + heat retention, time) and the final temperature (heat retention, time).
For internal temperature control, it is equipped with the same cascade control system as production equipment, allowing precise control of reaction temperature (internal temperature, external temperature, isothermal, ramp) and reaction time. Additionally, when combined with a syringe pump, it enables automated reagent addition. Heat from the reaction is safely dissipated within the set temperature range, ensuring safe reagent addition.
◊ TR: internal temperature (temperature of reaction solution), TJ: external temperature (temperature of aluminum block), FEED (dosage volume): volume already dispensed by syringe pump
• Reaction Vessel Common to the PPV Series
♦ The reaction vessel is compatible with the ChemStation PPV model and can accommodate a 150mL reaction vessel with an outer diameter of 60mm. This allows for reaction condition testing using small samples of 10–50 mL and multiple vessels.
♦ The reaction vessel with an outflow nozzle has also been added, allowing liquid to be extracted from the bottom of the reaction vessel. By connecting a Teflon® tube, CSTR is possible, allowing large-scale synthesis.
