Description
Dessicator Vacuum 240mm
Dessicator Vacuum 240mm is a laboratory instrument used to remove moisture and maintain a dry environment for samples or experiments. Here’s a detailed description:
Construction:
- Chamber: Made of thick, borosilicate glass (often referred to as Pyrex) for durability and clear visibility.
- Lid: Ground-glass lid forms an airtight seal with the chamber. It usually has a knob or handle for easy lifting.
- Stopcock: A glass valve with a PTFE (Teflon) plug allows controlled introduction or evacuation of air. It often connects to a hose for attaching a vacuum pump.
- Porcelain Plate: A perforated plate sits inside the chamber, elevating samples and allowing air circulation.
Functionality:
- Vacuum Desiccation: Connects to a vacuum pump to remove air and moisture from the chamber. This creates a low-pressure environment ideal for drying samples or preventing moisture-sensitive materials from absorbing water vapor.
- Desiccants: Desiccants, like silica gel or molecular sieves, can be placed inside the chamber to further absorb moisture from the air.
Applications:
- Drying samples: Gently drying biological specimens, chemicals, or electronic components.
- Storing moisture-sensitive materials: Preserving hygroscopic (water-absorbing) materials like pharmaceuticals, electronic components, or dehydrated food.
- Desiccating reactions: Carrying out chemical reactions that require a dry environment.
Benefits:
- Effective drying: Achieves a low-moisture environment for various applications.
- Chemical resistance: Borosilicate glass resists most common laboratory chemicals.
- Durable: Built for long-lasting use.
- Clear visibility: Allows for easy monitoring of samples inside the chamber.
- Controllable atmosphere: Stopcock enables controlled introduction or evacuation of air.
