3000 Gallon Alloy 20 Reactor vessel with Stainless Steel half pipe jacket

Description:

This Ward 3,000-gallon Alloy 20 reactor is a high-performance chemical processing vessel, designed for high-pressure and vacuum reactions. The shell is constructed from corrosion-resistant Alloy 20 (SB-463), making it ideal for acidic and highly reactive chemical environments.

The reactor features a half-pipe jacket, which is rated at 150 PSI / full vacuum from -20°F to 350°F, allowing precise thermal control through heating and cooling processes. The main vessel is rated for 85 PSI / full vacuum at 350°F, ensuring high-pressure and vacuum operation stability.

Equipped with a top-mounted Lightnin Model 85-S-25, 25 HP mixer, the system provides 84 RPM output speed, ensuring efficient agitation for hydrolysis, polymerization, and chemical reaction processes. The reactor’s shell is 0.375” thick, while the heads are 0.4375” thick, offering high durability under extreme operating conditions.

Drawings are available for detailed engineering reference.
