FAQ's

  • What are stainless steel pressure vessels used for?

    Pressure vessels are used for controlled processing under pressure or vacuum conditions in pharmaceutical, biotech, food and chemical production environments. They are suitable for mixing, heating, cooling, reacting or storing products where pressure control is essential.

  • What material are the pressure vessels manufactured from?

    All product-contact parts are manufactured from 316L pharmaceutical grade stainless steel, providing:

    • Excellent corrosion resistance
    • High chemical compatibility
    • Long service life
    • Suitability for regulated GMP environments

  • Can the vessels operate under both pressure and vacuum?

    Yes. Configurations are available for:

    • Internal pressure
    • Internal vacuum
    • Combined pressure and vacuum applications

    The exact specification is determined by your process requirements.

  • Are heated or cooled jacket options available?

    Yes. Jacketed configurations include:

    • Pressurised heating or cooling jackets
    • Liquid-filled jackets without vessel pressure
    • Fully pressurised vessels with pressurised heating jackets

    This allows precise thermal control alongside pressure management.

  • Are ATEX compliant versions available?

    Yes. ATEX-compliant designs can be supplied for hazardous or flammable product applications when specified. This makes the vessels suitable for regulated environments where explosive atmospheres may be present.
