Non-Stirred Pressure Vessels
Parr offers a broad selection of non-stirred
pressure vessels in convenient styles,
sizes and pressure ranges for many laboratory
uses. Recent additions to this line have included
new sizes, new temperature and pressure
combinations and new self-sealing closures, all
designed to provide convenient vessels for labo-
ratory procedures that must be performed under
pressure at elevated temperatures.
Pressure Vessel Selection Procedure
The steps to be followed in selecting a non-
stirred pressure vessel are similar to those used
for a stirred reactor. Selection begins with the
Guide to Non-Stirred Vessels, from which the
user can identify the Model Number for vessels
in a range of sizes with temperature and pres-
sure ratings suitable for the intended application.
Detailed specifications and catalog numbers can
then be found on the referenced page. After the
specifications have been established, the options
and accessories required to customize a com-
plete pressure vessel system can be selected.

Head Design
Many of the non-stirred vessels offer a basic head with a 1/8" NPT plug. These
should be considered as only a starting point for custom built vessels as they
do not include a safety relief device. Safety codes, good practice,
and common sense dictate that a safety relief device should be installed
on all vessels. The 1/8" NPT plug is provided for the user to install their
own safety relief device.
Users who take delivery of vessels without safety relief devices installed
must take responsibility for installing adequate protective devices before
the vessel is placed in service.
