Sanitary Reaction Reactor Kettle

 

In the realm of pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and food processing, maintaining high hygiene standards is paramount. Sanitary grade reactor products have emerged as indispensable equipment for these industries, playing a crucial role in intermediate buffering, liquid storage, mixing, blending, and reaction processes. These reactors efficiently mix materials to meet the stringent requirements of process production through intricate stirring operations within their confines. Their design and functionality cater to the unique needs of industries where cleanliness and precision are non-negotiable.

 

Sanitary grade reactor products are characterized by their exceptional hygiene standards, strict precision requirements, and ease of cleaning and disinfection. These features collectively prevent pollution and cross-contamination, ensuring the purity and integrity of the processed materials. The absence of dead corners within the reactor further enhances its usability, making it easier to maintain and clean. The reactor's design underscores its versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of applications across various industries. From stone dyes to pharmaceuticals and food processing, these reactors have become a staple in many manufacturing processes.

 

The composition of sanitary grade reactor products is meticulously planned to meet the diverse needs of different industries. The reactor system primarily comprises a kettle body (cylinder), kettle cover (head), outer half tube, agitator (either upper mechanical or lower magnetic), transmission device (motor reducer), shaft seal device, support structure (platform, legs), and insulation medium. Additionally, the reactor system is equipped with transmission devices, mechanical sealing devices, temperature control devices, cooling devices, as well as weighing and measuring devices and liquid level measuring devices. This comprehensive configuration ensures the reactor's efficacy and reliability in various processing environments.

 

The tank body of sanitary grade reactor products is crafted with utmost care to meet hygiene and durability standards. The inner tank body is constructed from SUS304 or SUS316L stainless steel, renowned for its corrosion resistance and hygiene properties. The jacket, which surrounds the inner tank body, is made of Q235-B or SUS304, providing structural support and facilitating heating or cooling operations. The outer insulation shell, made of SUS304, enhances the reactor's thermal efficiency and protects it from external elements. The internal surface undergoes mirror polishing treatment, achieving a precision polish of Ra ≤ 0.4 μm, ensuring a smooth and easy-to-clean surface. The outer surface is finished with a mirror or 2B horizontal plate, giving the reactor a sleek and professional appearance.

 

The jacket form of the reactor is tailored to the specific heating method required for the processing operation. Depending on the application, different jacket forms such as full jacket, half tube jacket, and detachable jacket are selected. The full jacket provides uniform heating across the entire tank body, suitable for processes requiring consistent temperature control. The half tube jacket focuses heating on specific sections of the tank, allowing for more targeted temperature management. The detachable jacket offers flexibility, enabling easy removal for maintenance or cleaning purposes. This versatility ensures that the reactor can be adapted to various heating needs, optimizing process efficiency and product quality.

 

 

The upper cover of the sanitary grade reactor adopts an elliptical (or butterfly-shaped) head structure, providing a robust and aesthetically pleasing design. The inner surface undergoes mirror polishing treatment to achieve a roughness of Ra ≤ 0.4 μm, ensuring a smooth and easy-to-clean surface. The outer surface is mechanically polished to Ra ≤ 0.8 μm, maintaining a consistent finish across the reactor. The tank bottom structure is processed into an R angle by spinning, welded, and polished to the inner tank body without dead corners. This design feature prevents material accumulation, ensuring complete material discharge without residue. The tank bottom is tilted at a 5° angle towards the discharge port, facilitating easy and efficient material removal.

 

The process openings of each inlet and outlet pipe and the welding points of the inner tank body are meticulously rounded with a flanging process. This smooth, seamless design ensures easy cleaning and eliminates dead corners, maintaining the reactor's hygiene standards. The reactor's appearance is not only functional but also visually appealing, enhancing its overall usability in various industrial settings. Compliance with pharmaceutical GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards underscores the reactor's suitability for the pharmaceutical industry. These standards ensure that the reactor meets the highest quality and hygiene requirements, making it an ideal choice for critical processing operations. Sanitary grade reactor products continue to play a pivotal role in industries where hygiene, precision, and reliability are crucial for success.
