Description

There is a total of four (4) desiccator boxes in this system ? the boxes are arranged in two rows and two columns (2x2 configuration), bringing the summarized dimensions to 48-inch-wide, 24-inch-deep by 36 inch high. Each single desiccator box has the inside dimensions of 24-inch Wide, 24-inch Deep, and 18-inch High. All three desiccators are fully assembled and are ready to go. Each comes with one fully removable perforated shelf, a digital hygrometer, two gas ports that are 1/4 inch NPT and plugged, and four door clamps. These are air tight boxes which means that as soon as you close the door and engage the clamps, they become hermetically sealed.

We construct our desiccator cabinets the same way we construct any of our products which means that these desiccator boxes are robustly designed and quality manufactured to consistently perform and meet your needs. These two dry boxes will enable you to store any component that requires dry storage such as anhydrous and hygroscopic biological, chemical compound, or electronic assemblies. These can be used for long term and short-term storage of laboratory samples as well. Desiccator cabinets will reduce humidity/oxygen within the box. Desiccators are air tight containers envisioned to store samples shielded from dust and contamination and/or in a low humidity and in some cases a low oxygen environment.

Please note that this desiccator is not intended to be pressurized, if you required a vacuum chamber or a pressure chamber click on the link. Also note that acrylic material is hygroscopic meaning that it will absorb and transport humidity. Say you are operating in a relatively high humidity environment (80%) and say that you bring the humidity inside this desiccator cabinet to below 20%. Due to the nature of acrylic, the humidity will travel through the walls and slowly increase the humidity until it gets to a steady state. If no further action is taken, the humidity inside the desiccator cabinet will equalize with the outside within a couple of hours. In order to keep the humidity at a certain level, you will have to monitor it or control it as we mentioned before, acrylic is hygroscopic.

Pressure Decay Leak Testing Systems
Pressure Decay Leak Testing Systems are instruments that detect and quantify a leak by measuring the pressure drop over specified amount of time. Any specimen that is inflated will stay inflated if it is leak tight. On the other hand, of a leak exists in the inflated specimen, air will escape through the orifice and decrease the pressure inside the specimen. The higher the pressure drop, the high the leak.
Belt Drive Rotary Vane Vacuum Pumps
A Belt Drive Rotary Vane Pump is almost identical to a Direct Drive Rotary Vane Pump. The only difference between the two is that the belt drive Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump is driven by a belt. There are several advantages why a belt drive vacuum pump would be preferable. One of these reasons is that the belt drive Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump runs at a slower RPM therefore the temperature created is lower, the wear and tear is less, and the overall lifetime of the pump is longer. The disadvantages are a lower CFM and performance.
Our Work: Vacuum Storage of Pharmaceutical Products and Medical Supplies
A pharmaceutical manufacturer contacted us to build them a large vacuum storage system for their pharmaceutical products. They were looking for as much footprint as possible which is why they got a two-chamber system from us. They needed a total of 6 shelves per chamber including trays. Finally, they were looking to have both chambers to be placed on a table frame assembly with lockable swivel casters. What you are seeing is a two chamber system, each chamber is our 20 inch cube acrylic vacuum chamber, front load hinged door. Each chamber can be accesses independently while the other is under vacuum. The trays can be easily loaded and unloaded. This whole system can also be moved to anywhere in their facility.
