Desiccator Cabinets

stackable, polystyrene, NO gas ports

Perfect for cramped locations, these desiccator cabinets may be safely stacked up to five high. The cabinet is completely transparent from any side. The door has a foam rubber gasket and two roller latches for an airtight seal. When opened, the door slides into an out-of-the-way compartment beneath the cabinet. A jar of silica gel is included with each cabinet.
Inside dimensions are 8-1/4" x 7" x 5" high (21 x 18 x 13cm).
Door opening is 7-1/2" x 4-3/8" high (19 x 11cm).
Overall dimensions are 9-1/4" x 8-7/8" x 6-5/8" high (23 x 22 x 17cm)

with gas ports

Two gas ports added to the rear of the No. 2248 Desiccator Cabinet allow an atmosphere to be created that may be altered and maintained at any concentration desired. The gas ports, located at top and bottom, create a sweep of gas from the inlet through the outlet. The gas ports have leakproof 4mm stopcocks and the door has an excellent seal.
Useful for tissue culture work where a controlled carbon dioxide atmosphere is required or for flooding the chamber with nitrogen to eliminate oxygen.
Dimensions are the same as for the No. 2248, plus the 2-3/4" (7cm) extension of the stopcocks.

with dial hygrometer

Molded of methyl methacrylate, this desiccator cabinet offers a clear view of contents. Shelf cleats allow for 15 levels of placement. Includes 3 sets of shelf rails and 3 clear shelves with small vent holes. The door has a full gasket, 2 metal hinges, 2 latches, and a handle.
Door opening is 10" x 17-7/8" high (25 x 45cm).
Inside depth is 13-1/4" (34cm). Overall dimensions are 12-1/2" x 15-1/4" x 20" high (32 x 39 x 51cm). Includes desiccant tray.

with dial hygrometer

This desiccator cabinet is similar to the tall model (above), but designed in a horizontal configuration. 8 levels of shelf cleats allow for placement of 2 sets of shelf rails and 2 clear shelves with small vent holes. The door has a full gasket and 2 metal hinges, 2 latches, and a handle. Door frame inside dimensions are 17-7/8" x 10" high (45 x 25cm). Inside depth is 13-1/4" (34cm). Overall dimensions are 14-3/4" x 19-5/8" x 13-3/4" high (37 x 50 x 35cm). Includes desiccant tray.

electrically operated, 110VAC

This auto-desiccator cabinet features an adsorption/regeneration cycle for the silica gel desiccant. No desiccant tray is needed. The gel is contained in the control section, where it absorbs moisture to maintain a low (30-40%) relative humidity. The adsorption period lasts 4-1/2 hours, indicated by a green pilot light. After this period, the silica gel is regenerated for a 1/2 hour period, indicated by a red pilot light. After regeneration of silica gel, the cycle repeats.
