<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A catalytic setup for Fischer‐Tropsch synthesis to alkanes and alcohols is described. Within this single‐channel reactor unit the reaction conditions can be varied in the ranges of 25 – 400 °C, 1 – 100 bar, and 300 – 120 000 h<jats:sup>–1</jats:sup> gas hourly space velocity (GHSV). The broad product spectrum is efficiently analyzed by GC/MS. The concept of effective carbon numbers, as typically applied in refining and high‐molecular chemistry, is suitable for the product spectrum comprising mainly alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, aldehydes, and carboxylic acids. This article provides details about the setup and general measurement procedures.</jats:p>
