"The Atlas Reactor platform is extremely flexible, powerful and user friendly system... This system has now become core to our Chemical Research." Dr. Sunil S. Nadkarni, VP, Product Development Torrent, India
"Since investing in the Atlas from Syrris, we have been delighted at the rapid uptake by our chemists and the high demand that they have placed for available systems. We are also very impressed with the speed and quality of the service and support." Dr Phil Peach (Process CRD, Pfizer, UK)
Atlas is a high performance, low cost synthesis system that is flexible and truly easy to use. The intelligent base can be configured to control one or many reactions at scales from μl to 5 litres in vials, flasks or jacketed reactors. The Atlas has the following applications in discovery and process development:
Reaction development
Reaction optimisation
Process screening
Synthesis automation
Process Analytical Technology
Scale-up chemistry
Crystallisation
Parallel chemistry
High throughput chemistry
Calorimetry
Atlas benefits
Easy to use: twist & click knob, large display and intuitive
Automated: walk away synthesis
Full data capture: download all data to a USB stick in .csv format
High performance hotplate or circulator temperature control: rapid heating to 280°C and accurate control
High performance magnetic or overhead stirring: 1200RPM magnetic or 800RPM powerful overhead stirrer
Quick: everything clicks together quickly and easily without tools
Small
footprint: 23cm (9”) square easily fits in fume cupboards
Robust: specifically designed for use in chemical laboratories
Safe: Auto shut down, alarms and safe touch surfaces
Atlas can be configured into a wide range of different systems. To make choosing a system easier, there are three standard Atlas systems named Lithium and Sodium for round bottom flasks (magnetically and overhead stirred respectively) and Potassium for jacketed vessels. Other Atlas systems, designed for specific applications, are also available.
Below is a current list of Atlas systems:
Atlas Lithium automates reactions in flasks or vials
Atlas Sodium automates viscous reactions in round bottom flasks
Atlas Potassium performs reactions in jacketed reactors
Atlas Calorimeter for high performance, easy to use HFC and PCC
Atlas Volumetric dosing system includes the Atlas Syringe Pump
Atlas Gravimetric Dosing system with a controlled peristaltic pump
Atlas pH Monitoring system includes a pH sensor
Atlas pH Control system doses reagents to control pH
Atlas Remote Mount system for remote control of up to 5L
Atlas Software controls Atlas hardware, but also devices from third parties
Atlas Turbidity is ideal for processes involving crystallisation steps
Atlas SonoLab is used for crystallization control, sonomilling and sonochemistry
The Atlas FT-IR System is a FT-IR Spectrometer system for in situ reaction monitoring
Atlas Parallel allows up to 8 Atlas jacketed reactors or round bottom flasks, to be controlled from one PC.
The Atlas Reporting Software is used for graphical analysis of log files
The Atlas Sodium Pressure System is a modular pressure reactor
A variety of dry bath options fit onto the hotplate and magnetic stirrer for single round bottom flasks or parallel flasks or vials. For cooled reactions, the hotplate can be removed and a cold plate fitted.
The Stacking Atlas Dry Bath has concentric cups allowing round bottom flasks from 50ml to 1 litre to be heated or cooled. A triple dry bath is available for flasks from 50ml to 250ml and the Atlas Vial Baths can conveniently heat or cool a wide range of reaction vials.
The Atlas Orbit can heat 6 or 12 reaction tubes with a reflux in an inert atmosphere. The base can automatically run reaction profiles and add reagents.

Atlas Vial Baths for heating or cooling parallel vial reactions
Atlas Hot & Cold Plate is an easy way of heating and cooling reactions
Jacketed vessels from 100ml to 5 litres can be controlled in a fully automated fashion. They can be easily changed due to the quick release vessel clamp, auto aligning stirrer, quick connect fluid hoses and semi-automatic circulator fluid drain.
Without PC control, the intelligent base can control circulator or reaction temperature, overhead stirrer speed and reagent addition from a pump. Data from sensors such as thermocouples, pH sensors, turbidity probes and stirrers are recorded by the base and can be downloaded to a USB stick.
The Atlas base can be configured into a variety of different systems for different applications such as discovery or process chemistry. In every case, the hardware clicks into place in seconds without the need for tools and can be controlled in three ways:
2) Edit and run profiles automatically from the base to control heating, cooling, stirring and reagent addition. Connect many bases in parallel to run one profile on all.
3) Use full PC software for complex recipe control, real time data plotting and control of third party hardware. The software can also control many bases at a time with different profiles.
