- Temperature controlled (0° to 80° C) with thermostatic fluid
- Interchangeable LED light modules (365 nm through 525 nm)
- Screen up to 4 wavelengths and/or light intensities simultaneously
- Heavy duty magnetic stirring
- Pre-set your favorite experiments for quick repeatability
Industry Leading Photoreactor Design
The LUCENT360™ is the most comprehensive photoreactor on the market. It’s patent pending design provides the most flexibility for parallel, large batch and flow photochemistry.
Reaction vials are immerged in a thermostatic bath controlled by an external heater/ chiller unit, enabling temperature controlled experiment conditions.
Light irradiation is provided by custom, interchangeable light modules that surround the reaction chamber.
The reaction chamber itself is comprised of 2 glass walls (Dewar) that thermally insulate light sources from the reaction vial bath.
Temperature Controlled
Reaction vials can be thermostatically controlled
(0° to 80° C) via a standard
heater/chiller unit.
Interchangeable Light Modules
Four light modules surround the reaction chamber and one light module sits underneath.
Thermally Insulated Reactions
Double glass walls of the reaction chamber keep reaction vials at the correct temperature.
Temperature Controlled Environment (0° to 80° C)
The LUCENT360™ advanced photoreactor includes standard circulation ports on all of its vial holders as well as an internal water pump and high performance heat exchanger.
Connecting the LUCENT360™ to a standard heater/chiller unit enables accurate temperature controlled reaction conditions (0° to 80° C) that are insulated from the heat of light modules.
A temperature probe (included) can also connect to each of the LUCENT360 vial holders, allowing for precise measurements. Fill and flow rate is controlled by the manual valves accessed on the front panel.

A Short Overview of the Lucent360™
Unparalleled Control of Light Wavelengths and Intensities
The LUCENT360™ includes 5 light modules that can be controlled independently. Each module has multiple LEDs that operate at a specific wavelength.
The light modules are interchangeable and, when using a divider in the reaction chamber, enables conditions that can screen multiple wavelengths or light intensities simultaneously.

Lucent360™ Case Studies
Case Study: Scaling Up
A reaction was performed at 100 mL scale (5 mmol) with the Lucent360™ batch reactor (HCK1021-01-007) at 450 nm equipped with nitrogen inlet/outlet ports, a septum for syringing in reagents/sampling and a temperature probe. The reaction is cooled by an external chiller set at 25 °C.
