Ace Glass 7892-24 Photochemical/Photobiological Platform Reactor

Used by water chemists for radiating metals in water to obtain metal-free water. Also used to remove unbound chlorine from drinking water. This reactor is similar to the unit published in Nature, London, Vol. 211, pgs. 481-483, 1966; Photochemical Combustion of Organic Matter in Sea Water, for Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Carbon Determination, by Armstrong and Tibbits. This aluminum reactor consists of a top platform with eight 33 mm I.D. sample tube holes encircling a 40 mm lamp well hole; adjustable height, 0-20.5 cm, middle platform with grooves to stabilize sample tubes; and a lower platform holding a fan for blowing air up the side of center lamp well. Lamp well is held in a basket pouch attached to the middle platform low enough so that the effective area of the U.V. lamp radiates the very bottom of the sample tubes. Fan is shielded top and bottom by a stainless steel screen and is supplied with 1.8 m grounded line cord. Operates on 115 v, 50/60 Hz. Overall height approximately 40 cm.

Lamp, power supply, lamp well and sample tubes NOT included. Recommended for up to a 450 watt rated lamp.
