Nalgene Desiccator with Stopcock, Blue Polypropylene Body 250 mm (Case of 4)

The Nalgene 5310-0250 Desiccator with Stopcock is a vacuum desiccator with vacuum connection on the body, a transparent hemispherical polycarbonate cover with a recessed rim to keep grease off the benchtop, and a blue polypropylene body compatible with all solid desiccants. The polypropylene stopcock with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plug takes 6.4mm (1/4") I.D. (inside diameter) tubing (not included). The desiccator measures 262mm in height, with an inside diameter of 246mm, and takes any standard 230mm plate (not included). It can achieve a full vacuum. Desiccators are sealable containers used to remove water from a sample, or to preserve moisture-sensitive electronics or lab consumables, typically in laboratory, electronic, and aerospace applications. Desiccators are often used with desiccants, which are drying agents such as silica gel or activated charcoal placed under a removable platform. Standard desiccators are typically lidded jars used with a desiccant. Vacuum desiccators have a stopcock that allows air evacuation from the desiccator. Gas purge desiccators use a gas port to introduce nitrogen or other gasses, creating a controlled environment. Vacuum and gas purge desiccators may also be used with desiccants. Many desiccators are used with vacuum grease, which helps create a seal.Thermo Fisher Scientific manufactures analytical instruments, laboratory equipment, consumables, and software under the Thermo Scientific, Fisher Scientific, and Nalgene brands, among others. The company is headquartered in Waltham, MA.
