High Pressure Reaction Vessels: High pressure vessels can present physical hazards due to use under conditions of elevated pressure and/or temperature. Never use a vessel beyond rated pressure or temperature capacities or for applications other than those for which it was designed. Never use with materials that are incompatible with the vessel or any components of the vessel. Follow all manufacturer’s guidance for use and maintenance. Choose vessels with safety features, such as pressure relief valves and rupture discs, when possible.
