The Polar Bear Plus Flow (TM) is a state-of-the-art heating and cooling reactor module for flow chemistry applications. The instrument was developed by Cambridge Reactor Design in collaboration with Professor Steve Ley’s Innovative Technologies Centre (ITC) located within the University of Cambridge. Remarkably, although not much bigger than a shoe box, this compact and portable unit can maintain reactor temperatures anywhere between -40oC and +150oC! The Polar Bear Plus Flow reactor is easy to use and is completely self-contained, requiring only an electricity supply for operation – no cardice, refrigerants or messy heat transfer fluids! Compatible with all standard Uniqsis coil and chip reactors, the Polar Bear Plus Flow makes an ideal and flexible addition to an existing FlowSyn. Alternatively, this reactor module can be combined with a Uniqsis Binary Pump Module as the basis for a modular flow reactor system. Specification Compact and portable: base unit not much bigger than a shoe box! Wide temperature range: -40°C to +150°C No icing-up! – a nitrogen purge can be connected to ensure that the reaction remains clearly visible Compatible with all standard Uniqsis FlowSyn coil and chip reactors
