Asia Flow Chemistry - Syrris - The Future of Flow Chemistry
Asia Flow Chemistry
Above: Asia 110 System A robust, totally chemically resistant microreactor system for solution phase flow chemistry. Cool to -15°C or superheat reactions up to +150°C and 300psi.
Right: Asia 320 System Fully automated collection of multiple, multi-step reactions in solution or solid phase. Cool to -15°C or superheat up to 250°C. Vary reaction time, flow ratios and temperatures automatically. Perfectly suited to process optimization and then scale up from mg to kg.
Asia is a revolutionary range of advanced flow chemistry products from Syrris. It has been designed by chemists for chemists to enable the widest variety of chemical reactions and ultimate ease of use. The proprietary technology allows automated experiments with or without a PC.
Asia offers maximum chemical resistance with an extensive range of temperatures, pressures, and reaction times on scales from mg to kg.
Asia Flow Chemistry Systems
Asia offers a variety of flow chemistry modules and systems making it ideal for both beginners with modest budgets and experts who demand the utmost functionality.
Syrris has pre-configured some systems for certain types of chemistry, please click on one of the images below to find out more.

What is common is that every system includes the Asia Syringe Pump – the most sophisticated flow chemistry pump available.
Due to the modular nature of the system all the Asia modules can be purchased separately, then arranged in any fashion to add new functionalities to an existing system. The system can advance with the needs and requirements of your evolving chemistry. Click here to find out more about the individual modules.

Asia Modules
Reagent Injector
2 Extremely chemically resistant injection valves with sample loops
Pressurized Input Store
This enables the use of air sensitive reagents and eliminates bubble formation when pumping
Chip Climate Controller
This enables glass microreactors to be cooled or heated from -15°C to +150°C
FLLEX
The FLLEX (Flow Liquid Liquid Extraction) module is the flow chemistry equivalent of separatory funnels
Pressure Controller
Automatically pressurizes the reaction up to 20 bar (300psi)
Asia Manager Software
Easy to use for total ‘walk-away’ control of the Asia system
Syringe Pump
2 Extremely chemically resistant continuous flow pumps. This can also be used as the “master” to control certain systems without a PC
Heater (Tube Reactor Adaptor)
This module has different reactor adaptors and enables temperatures up to 250°C
Sampler and Dilutor
This enables on-line reaction analysis by automated sample extraction, dilution and transfer to an analytical system e.g. LCMS or UPLC
Automated Collector
This allows collection of multiple reactions in separate vials or vessels with waste automatically diverted
