Implosion proof desiccator with a polypropylene (PP) lower section with polycarbonate (PC) cover.
The PC cover seals onto a neoprene 'O' ring, which sits in a groove in the PP base unit to provide an excellent seal with the cover. Use a small amount of grease on the O-ring to help in establishing an initial vacuum. Within the desiccator is a removable pan for holding a drying agent.
The desiccators will hold a vacuum of -740mm Hg with loss not exceeding 20mm HG in 24 hours.
Vacuum release tap/non return valve assembly is included; specially grooved stopper in this assembly allows air, when required, to be re-admitted very slowly to avoid disturbing the contents. Usage Instructions:
Tubing of 8.5 to 10mm bore will fit onto the valve to apply vacuum.

Most laboratories will have a vacuum pump. They are widely used across labs of all disciplines for a range of tasks from basic filtrations or evacuating a desiccator right up to use with large equipment such as vacuum ovens or rotary evaporators. The two most common types are rotary vane or diaphragm pumps - but what do these mean and what is the difference? [caption id="attachment_5483" ...
A Desiccator is a sealable enclosure containing desiccants used for preserving moisture sensitive items. They are used to protect chemicals which are hygroscopic or react with water from humidity. The most common desiccators in the laboratory are round and made of heavy glass which usually has a removable platform on which smaller items such as watch glasses or crucibles can be placed and st...
