Desiccators with Knob
$ 46.99 Original price was: $ 46.99.$ 46.76Current price is: $ 46.76.
Desiccators with Knob are specialized laboratory containers designed to preserve moisture-sensitive materials by providing a dry, airtight environment. Constructed from high-quality borosilicate glass or durable plastic, these desiccators feature a tightly sealed lid with a central knob for easy handling and secure closure. The knob allows convenient lifting and placement of the lid without compromising the internal vacuum or dry atmosphere. Commonly used with desiccant agents like silica gel, they are ideal for drying samples, storing hygroscopic chemicals, or preventing atmospheric contamination. Desiccators with knobs are indispensable in laboratory, pharmaceutical, and industrial settings for maintaining low-humidity conditions during experiments or storage.
Desiccators with Knob
Primary Uses
- Laboratory and Scientific Applications
- Used to store moisture-sensitive compounds or materials in a controlled dry environment.
- Ideal for cooling hot crucibles or samples in a moisture-free setting.
- Employed in chemical labs to prevent oxidation or degradation of samples.
- Used with desiccants like silica gel to absorb ambient moisture.
- Maintains sample integrity by protecting against humidity or airborne contaminants.
Secondary Uses
- Pharmaceutical and Industrial Settings
- Applied in pharmaceutical labs for storing hygroscopic drugs or reagents.
- Used in electronics for temporary storage of moisture-sensitive components.
- Suitable for cleanroom environments to protect materials during staging or transport.
1. Basic Identification Attributes
- Material: Borosilicate glass or chemically resistant plastic
- Closure Type: Lid with knob and sealing gasket for airtight closure
- Size: Available in multiple diameters and internal volume capacities
2.Physical & Chemical Properties
- Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most laboratory reagents and desiccants
- Thermal Resistance: Suitable for low-temperature vacuum drying and autoclaving (glass models)
- Vacuum Capability: Supports partial vacuum for accelerated drying
3.Safety & Hazard Attributes
- Airtight design prevents leakage of vapors or contaminants
- Should be handled with care to avoid pressure-related hazards
4.Storage & Handling Attributes
- Store in clean, dry areas to maintain performance and sterility
- Avoid direct exposure to flame or rapid temperature changes
- Inspect gaskets and lids regularly to ensure sealing integrity
5.Regulatory & Compliance Attributes
- Manufactured according to laboratory safety and quality assurance standards
- Suitable for GMP and GLP laboratory use
6.Environmental & Health Impact
- Reusable design reduces laboratory waste
- Non-toxic materials; safe when used as intended
Safety Handling Precautions
- Do not apply excessive vacuum or overfill with desiccant
- Always lift using the knob and avoid sudden lid removal under vacuum
First Aid Measures
- In case of glass breakage, use appropriate PPE and dispose of shards properly
- If desiccant dust is inhaled, move to fresh air and seek medical attention if irritation persists
Firefighting Measures
- Non-flammable materials (glass or plastic)
- Use fire suppression methods appropriate to surrounding materials
