The CatCart® Packer enables the users to pack their own catalysts and reagents into cartridges and screen them for rapid reaction optimization. In addition to speed, the instrument will allow users to explore how their current chemistry and processes can benefit by using flow reactors.
Simple: get your own CatCarts® in two steps
Safe: the CatCart® Packer is equipped with a water trap and a filter to catch any waste catalyst, preventing it from dispersing in the laboratory environment or catch on fire if it is pyrophoric.
How does it work?
The system has three main components:
The vacuum system
The mechanical press
The CatCart® filter and sealing system
The vacuum system holds the empty CatCart® in place while vacuum is applied at the bottom end of it to draw catalyst into the cartridge. With the help of the hoover nozzle, the user can easily remove any excess of catalyst. Once the right amount of catalyst is placed inside the CatCart®, should be sealed with the CatCart® filter and sealing system will be inserted and using the mechanical press, sealed securely.
