Mono fluid thermoregulation<\/strong><\/a> systems are gaining more and more ground within the pharmaceutical sector<\/strong><\/a>, for the precise temperature regulation of reactors<\/strong>. These solutions allow to achieve the chemical reactions required for the production of active principal ingredients<\/a>, for example, carefully following production recipes that require a defined thermal program.<\/p>\n

Mono fluid thermoregulation units are therefore systems that, if properly programmed, allow to follow the thermal scheme of a reactor or a chemical equipment<\/strong>. The units allow to monitor, control and regulate temperatures of the product inside the reactor. Mono fluid thermoregulation employs a circulating pump<\/strong>, ensuring the flow of the fluid between the jacket of the reactor<\/a>, or the half pipe of the equipment, and an array of heat exchangers<\/strong><\/a>, or electrical heaters. The whole system is managed by an electronic regulator that controls the temperature of the fluid.<\/p>\n

On the secondary circuit it is possible to have vapour<\/strong>, employed to heat the fluid, and refrigerated water<\/strong> or cooling tower water<\/strong><\/a> for the cooling of it. If vapour is not available, a heating section can be employed using electrical resistors,<\/strong> managed as well by the electronic regulator.<\/p>\n

The system can be managed by remote<\/strong> using a PLC<\/strong>, an electronic regulator or other interfaces. It is then possible to control a quite varied range of temperatures<\/strong>, starting from under zero temperatures down to -30\u00b0<\/strong>, going up to very high temperatures, reaching also 250\u00b0 C<\/strong>. Depending on the range of temperature required, the fluid employed will be simple water<\/strong>, or glicol water<\/strong> with anti-freeze to reach low temperatures. Pressurized water<\/strong>, over-heated, is employed to reach temperatures up to 140\u00b0 C, and finally diathermic oils<\/strong><\/a> or silicone oils<\/strong> are employed for high temperatures.<\/p>\n
