Description

We are excited to present to you our latest and greatest desiccator cabinet. This desiccator cabinet has the inside dimensions of 18 inch Wide, 18 inch Deep, and 12 inch High. This desiccator is fully assembled and ready to go. It 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. This is an air tight box which means that as soon as you close the door and engage the clamps, it becomes hermetically sealed.

We construct our desiccator cabinets the same way we construct any of our products which means that this desiccator box is robustly designed and quality manufactured to consistently perform and meet your needs. This dry box will enable you to store any component that requires dry storage such as anhydrous and hygroscopic biological and chemical compounds and electronic assemblies. It can be used for long term and short-term storage of laboratory samples. 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.

Altitude Simulation Systems
Altitude simulation systems are devices that simulate a certain altitude equivalent by controlling the vacuum inside a vacuum chamber. Altitude is a function of absolute pressure, therefore if a certain pressure is accomplished inside a vacuum chamber, a specific altitude can be simulated from the set pressure. Altitude simulation systems can be configured to not only hold a certain pressure, a complete pressure vs time profile can be programmed to be run. Furthermore, pressure vs time recipes can be loaded and run based on test requirements.
Altitude Simulation Controller Instruments
An Altitude simulation Controller is type of vacuum controller that simulates a certain altitude because altitude can be derived from vacuum levels. An altitude simulation controller will enable you to hold your vacuum level at a certain altitude equivalent of testing, run an altitude vs time profile, or rate of change of altitude vs. time. Further options include a vacuum pump relay that will control when the vacuum pump turns on and a vacuum valve.
Our Work: Vacuum Testing of Lithium Ion Batteries, Thin Film, Fuel Cells, Supercapacitors, and Nano materials
This vacuum chamber is a modification to our basic acrylic vacuum chamber 12 inch, removable lid model; except that our customer requested additional ports and electrical feed-through for testing of electrical equipment under vacuum. You know, I wish we would have asked them for more details on what they were doing with this chamber; their short and concise answer was that they were using our chamber to perform scientific work on the subjects of: lithium ion batteries, thin films, fuel cells, super-capacitors, and nano-materials testing in a vacuum environment.

How do you test the seal of vacuum sealed packages? If you are vacuum sealing your packages, you are faced with a challenge when it comes to seal testing. How do you know that your process is consistently creating a good seal? How can you be sure that the vacuum inside you package will hold for the required amount of time?
