Cylindrical 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. With a maximum vacuum rating of 1 Torr (1.33 × 10⁻⁴ MPa) for 72 hours, the systems support controlled storage conditions. Apex Scientific supplies cylindrical vacuum desiccators throughout South Africa, offering laboratory equipment for various research and industrial applications.
Durable construction and airtight sealing
The cylindrical 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.
A high-quality silicone gasket creates an airtight seal without requiring vacuum grease. As a result, laboratories can maintain vacuum conditions while reducing cleaning and maintenance requirements.
Additionally, a flange lock secures the upper and lower sections during non-vacuum conditions, improving handling and storage convenience.
Reliable vacuum control and operation
Jeiotech cylindrical vacuum desiccators support vacuum levels down to 1 Torr, with a specified holding period of 72 hours. This makes the equipment suitable for laboratory applications requiring reduced-pressure storage.
The integrated three-way valve allows users to control vacuum application, vacuum release, and gas exchange. Moreover, barbed fittings on both sides provide secure connections for vacuum tubing.
Selected G and UG models also support a vacuum gauge mounted centrally on the lid. Consequently, laboratory personnel can monitor internal pressure conveniently during operation.
UV protection for sensitive samples
Jeiotech offers UV-blocking cylindrical vacuum desiccators for laboratories handling light-sensitive materials. These UG models help minimise UV exposure, reducing the risk of sample discolouration or degradation caused by light.
Furthermore, the range includes different sizes to accommodate various sample volumes and storage requirements. This flexibility allows laboratories to select suitable equipment based on their applications.
Flexible configurations and compatibility
The cylindrical vacuum desiccators offer additional flexibility through compatibility with Jeiotech’s round vacuum desiccator range. Their interchangeable upper and lower sections allow users to configure the equipment for different laboratory requirements.
Additionally, the combination of vacuum control, durable construction, and optional pressure monitoring makes these systems suitable for routine laboratory storage and sample protection.
Conclusion
Cylindrical Vacuum Desiccators from Jeiotech combine reliable vacuum performance, airtight sealing, and flexible configuration options. Whether your laboratory requires standard vacuum storage, pressure monitoring, or UV protection, Apex Scientific can help you select suitable equipment.
