Integrated temperature control unit for reactors in pharmaceutical production

The supporting temperature control equipment mainly includes:

Reactor Jacket Temperature Control System: The temperature of the material in the reactor is adjusted by circulating heating or cooling medium (usually water or oil) through the jacket of the reactor. This system needs to be integrated with high-efficiency heat exchangers, accurate temperature sensors and automatic control systems to achieve fast response and precise control.

TCU (Temperature Control Unit): TCU is an independent unit specially designed for precise temperature control, commonly used in reactors that require high-precision temperature control. It usually contains heaters, coolers, pumps, controllers and temperature sensors, and can provide temperature control from very low to high temperatures.

Chillers and Heaters: Chillers are used for cooling during the reaction process to remove the heat generated by the reaction and keep the reactor working at a suitable low temperature. The heater is used to heat the reaction medium to ensure that the temperature can quickly reach the set value in the reaction step that requires heating.

Multi-stage Temperature Control System: For complex reaction processes, multi-stage temperature control may be required, that is, different temperature control strategies are adopted at different stages. This requires the temperature control equipment to have flexible temperature range switching and rapid response capabilities.

Automatic Control System: including PID controller, PLC system or more advanced SCADA system, which can automatically adjust the heating or cooling output according to the preset temperature curve, maintain the stability and accuracy of the temperature, and record and store temperature data for easy tracking and auditing.

Safety and Alarm System: integrated temperature, pressure, flow and other sensors, as well as safety protection measures such as overheating, overpressure, leakage, etc., to ensure that it can respond immediately and take measures in abnormal situations to protect the safety of equipment and personnel.
