if your reaction has to be closed because the reactants boil below the temperature of the reaction or the reaction produces gasses you may want to look around for pressure relief valves. there are many types for many different ordinary applications that can be used. prices range from $10 for a bronze valve to $150 for the finest stainless steel valve. some valves can be adjusted to various pressures, others are factory set to one pressure. usually these valves have standard pipe thread intake and outtake ports. it is important to check the material of the gasket to be sure it will not be attacked by any solvents or chemicals in the reaction.
