Cubic Vacuum Desiccators from Jeiotech provide reliable vacuum storage for moisture-sensitive laboratory samples and materials. Constructed from transparent, impact-resistant polycarbonate, these desiccators offer durability, excellent visibility, and easy cleaning. Designed to maintain vacuum levels down to 1 Torr (1.33 × 10⁻⁴ MPa) for more than 72 hours, the systems support controlled storage conditions. Apex Scientific supplies cubic vacuum desiccators throughout South Africa, offering laboratory equipment for research, testing, and industrial applications.
Durable construction and airtight sealing
The cubic vacuum desiccators feature transparent polycarbonate construction that resists impact, corrosion, and routine laboratory handling. Furthermore, the clear housing allows users to inspect stored materials without opening the chamber, helping preserve internal vacuum conditions.
A high-quality silicone gasket provides an airtight seal without requiring vacuum grease. As a result, laboratories can maintain a clean storage environment while reducing maintenance requirements.
Additionally, the durable construction supports repeated use in laboratory environments where moisture control and sample protection are essential.
Reliable vacuum control and operation
Jeiotech cubic vacuum desiccators achieve vacuum levels down to 1 Torr and can maintain these conditions for more than 72 hours under specified conditions. This makes the equipment suitable for laboratory applications requiring reduced-pressure storage.
The integrated three-way stopcock allows users to control vacuum application, vacuum release, and gas exchange. Moreover, barbed fittings provide secure connections for vacuum tubing.
A standard vacuum gauge mounted on the front door allows laboratory personnel to monitor internal pressure conveniently. Furthermore, four built-in ports simplify tubing connections and support flexible vacuum configurations.
Space-efficient design and flexible storage
The cubic vacuum desiccators feature a stackable design that helps laboratories maximise available bench space. This is particularly useful in facilities where multiple storage systems must operate within limited laboratory space.
Additionally, the internal chamber accommodates four to six shelves, depending on the selected model. Consequently, users can organise samples and materials across multiple storage levels while making efficient use of the available capacity.
The combination of flexible shelving and compact construction makes the equipment suitable for laboratories handling different sample quantities and container sizes.
UV protection for sensitive samples
Jeiotech offers UV-blocking cubic vacuum desiccators for laboratories handling light-sensitive materials. Available in U models, these systems help minimise UV exposure and reduce the risk of sample discolouration or degradation caused by light.
Furthermore, the UV-blocking design combines light protection with vacuum storage, making it suitable for materials that require protection from both moisture and UV exposure.
Conclusion
Cubic Vacuum Desiccators from Jeiotech combine reliable vacuum performance, airtight sealing, and space-efficient storage. Whether your laboratory requires standard vacuum storage, multiple shelving levels, or UV protection, Apex Scientific can help you select suitable equipment.
