A method for assembling a fluidized bed reactor for producing polycrystalline silicon granules, comprising the steps hereinafter in the stated sequence:
- a) provide a base plate and connect the base plate to gas supply lines for fluidizing gas and reaction gas and a product take-off line;
- b) equip the base plate with at least one fluidizing nozzle and with at least one reaction gas nozzle;
- c) insert a bottom reactor tube seal into the base plate;
- d) position a reactor tube on the bottom reactor tube seal;
- e) position a reactor section with heater, electrodes and insulation sections over the reactor tube;
- f) provide an upper reactor tube clamp with an upper reactor tube seal;
- g) assemble the reactor head;
- h) assemble a seed feed appliance and off-gas pipeline.
