Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the advantage of a NOVUS vacuum desiccator?
The NOVUS series from DWK Duran is specifically designed to withstand high vacuum pressures, allowing for faster and more thorough removal of moisture and air from sensitive samples.
2. Why is a porcelain plate included in most glass desiccators?
The porcelain plate provides a stable, heat-resistant, and chemically inert platform to hold your samples above the desiccant material at the bottom of the vessel.
3. Can I replace just the lid of my desiccator?
Yes, we stock separate DWK Duran desiccator lids with knobs or tubulations in multiple diameters, allowing you to replace a damaged lid without purchasing an entirely new system.
4. How do I control the vacuum in a glass desiccator?
Vacuum is typically controlled via a stopcock or a needle valve, such as those from Lenz-Laborglas, which are integrated into the lid or the side of the desiccator body.
