DURAN® Vacuum Desiccator, NOVUS type (NS 24/29), without porcelain plate, DN 250 The DURAN® Desiccator is a vacuum-suitable laboratory vessel with a ground-glass lid, which is used for storing moisture-sensitive substances and for drying moist products. Separated by a sieve plate (made of metal or porcelain), a drying agent is introduced into the lower part of the desiccator base, which binds the moisture of the substance to be dried, placed on the sieve plate. To accelerate the drying process, a vacuum can be connected if necessary, as the liquid evaporates more quickly due to a lower pressure in the desiccator. The vacuum is applied via a stopcock connection. To make it easier to loosen the lid, the ground joint of the desiccator must be well greased, as the lid is pressed onto the lower part after evacuation. All DURAN® desiccators are vacuum-proof, i.e. they can be used up to the technically maximum possible vacuum. Special features and advantages: Due to the solid wall thickness and the precise workmanship of the vacuum-tight grindings on the lid and lower part, storage under vacuum is possible even over a longer period By connecting a vacuum to the tap, the drying process can be accelerated Suitable for full vacuum (0 mbar) Spare parts such as lids, lower parts, taps and closures are compatible and can be replaced as required (note DN) Available with or without porcelain plate Application: Ideal for removing moisture from solids, Storage of moisture-sensitive materials over long periods, For applications requiring vacuum drying, Drying of materials, Safe working under vacuum DURAN® Vacuum Desiccator, NOVUS type (NS 24/29), with stopcock,with flat flange.
