Modular Vessel Interchangeability for Steady Scaling
Seamlessly switch between 10L and 20L glass reactor vessels on a single skid, simply purchase additional vessels as your process evolves. This flexibility allows for precise, incremental scale-up, giving you invaluable insights into your chemistry's performance at kilo lab levels without investing in multiple systems.
Compact, Plug-and-Play Design for Space Efficiency
Unlike bulky conventional reactor skids, COMET's streamlined footprint occupies minimal lab space, making it ideal for crowded R&D environments. Its skid-mounted architecture enables quick setup and operation, so you can hit the ground running with zero downtime.
Effortless Mobility with Built-in Castor Wheels
Navigate your lab with ease- roll COMET wherever you need it without heavy lifting, disassembly, or extra manpower. This built-in mobility keeps your workflow agile and adaptable to changing project demands.
Single-Person, Tool-Free Operation
Engineered for solo scientists, COMET follows a straightforward, step-by-step setup protocol. All manual adjustments from assembly to initiation are completely tool-free, ensuring safe, intuitive handling that aligns perfectly with lab-based use cases.
Customizable Agitator System for Tailored Mixing
Adapt to your chemistry's unique needs by effortlessly swapping agitators to match specific mixing patterns. Whether it's high-shear blending or gentle stirring, COMET supports a variety of impeller types for optimal reaction control.
Optimized Vessel Geometry for Superior Mixing
Accommodates vessels with an ideal golden aspect ratio (L/D) of 1 to 1.5, promoting uniform mixing and heat/mass transfer for consistent, high-yield results across diverse reaction types.
Extreme Versatility in Temperature and Pressure
Handle the most demanding chemistries with confidence. COMET sustains temperatures from -90°C to +230°C and pressures from a deep vacuum of -0.01 barg (10 mbar) to +0.5 barg, all within a sustainable, corrosion-resistant framework that coordinates extreme conditions in one robust system.
Fractional Distillate collection
Considering the reaction chemistries requiring precise separation of distillate fractions, COMET features two dedicated receiver vessels with a total collection capacity of 5L. This integrated system simplifies fractionation workflows, maximizing yield and purity without additional equipment.
Smart Manifold & Hose Management System
An easy-to-operate hose pipe arrangement, seamlessly integrated with manifolds, applies zero physical load to the vessel eliminating breakage risks while optimizing thermal fluid efficiency by minimizing spills for cleaner, safer workflows.
