New module streamlines flow chemistry automation and data logging

Vapourtec has launched a Reaction Controller and Datalogger Module designed to simplify the automation and monitoring of flow chemistry processes - particularly when using equipment from multiple vendors.

Compatible with a wide range of third-party pumps, recirculators, flow meters, sensors, and balances, the module extends Vapourtec’s automation platform into pilot and production environments. Researchers and process chemists can now streamline reaction control and centralise data logging without the need for time-consuming system reconfiguration or manual data entry.

The module offers flexible control of liquid and gas delivery systems via serial or analogue interfaces, and switching for valves and flow devices. It supports precise monitoring of flow rates, pressure, temperature (via PT100 sensors and thermocouples), and mass using a broad array of standard laboratory equipment.

“Whether you’re automating a single experiment or managing a sequence of reactions, this module helps improve accuracy, reproducibility and safety,” said Duncan Guthrie, Managing Director of Vapourtec. “It also removes the hassle of reprogramming and manual data handling, freeing up valuable time for analysis and process optimisation.”

The Reaction Controller and Datalogger is ideal for labs and process development settings looking to integrate diverse hardware into cohesive, automated workflows.
