| Aspect | Rotary Photochemical Reactor | Multi-Channel System |
|---|---|---|
| Illumination mode | Sample rotates around the lamp | Fixed positions under one light path |
| Best for | Single-sample long runs | Cross-comparison & screening |
| Trade-off | Lower throughput | Less fine per-channel control |
A rotary photochemical reactor moves the sample around the light source so it is evenly illuminated by motion—ideal for long single-sample reactions and uniform irradiation. A multi-channel system runs multiple samples in parallel under one optical path, suited to lateral comparison and screening. Selection essentially comes down to "depth or breadth."
The PLS-P8 Rotary Photochemical Reactor and the PLS-P12 Rotary Photochemical Reactor provide 8-tube or 12-tube rotary arrays with a simple structure and easy maintenance, making them common platforms for teaching and single-point reactions. They are highly compatible with light sources and can be paired with a Xenon Lamp Light Source, LED, and other irradiation units.
The PCX-50C Discover Multi-Channel Photocatalytic Reaction System pushes "breadth" to the limit, running dozens of reaction positions in parallel at once—especially suited to catalyst-library screening and condition scanning. The trade-off is relatively limited fine temperature-control space per channel.

Rotary reactors rotate the sample around the lamp for even single-sample irradiation; multi-channel systems run many samples under one light path for parallel comparison. The choice is depth versus breadth.
They provide 8- or 12-tube rotary arrays with a simple, easy-to-maintain structure, widely used for teaching and single-point reactions, and are compatible with xenon, LED, and other light sources.
Pick rotary PLS-P8/P12 for long single-sample mechanism work, the PCX-50C multi-channel for screening, and pair either with the MCP-WS1000 Photochemistry Workstation for unified data management.
