The Vapourtec E-Series flow chemistry system is an incredibly versatile tool for a variety of different chemistry research fields enabled by the broad selection of reactors. We frequently use the UV150 photochemical reactor for our own research, however other reactors such as the copper coil and thermal coils have enabled fruitful collaborations with other researchers, ranging from organometallics to bioconjugation.
The simplicity and user-friendly interface of the E-Series reactor allows new students and collaborators to become competent in using the equipment rapidly. Additionally, all key components of the reactor are easily accessible which allows for easy maintenance and troubleshooting, for example, in case of a blockage within a reactor. The built-in fail safes for monitoring reactor temperature and pump pressure are great for ensuring safety and preventing damage. We cannot recommend Vapourtec highly enough to anyone interested in flow chemistry research – their products are powerful and versatile for a broad range of chemistry research, and they continue to develop new reactors and technologies to further expand this.
Their customer service and technical support is unparalleled, and they have previously loaned us equipment to allow our research to progress while repairing our own, highlighting their excellent attitude towards supporting academia.
All our communications with Vapourtec support via email, phone, online calls, or in person at conferences have always been fruitful and a pleasure, with rapid responses on technical support. The team at Vapourtec really cares about the science and will advise you on what options are best for a particular project. Its also great that Vapourtec are open to collaborating on product design, application notes and hosting research posters and presentations on their website’s resource centre.
