Eksikator Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Eksikator (Product Code: SCI-133/039) is a non-vacuum desiccator used to keep samples, crucibles and chemicals dry while they cool or are stored in school, college and analytical chemistry laboratories. Laboratory staff use this chemistry lab equipment to protect moisture-sensitive materials; it measures 220 mm in diameter, holds samples on a porcelain plate and has an operating temperature of -25 to 120 °C. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is an Eksikator (Desiccator) Used For?

A drying agent such as silica gel or anhydrous calcium chloride goes into the lower part of the vessel, and the porcelain plate holds crucibles, weighing bottles or dried samples above it in dry air. The most common task is cooling heated crucibles to room temperature without them picking up moisture, so that gravimetric results stay accurate. The eksikator is equally useful for storing hygroscopic reagents and keeping dried specimens moisture-free between lessons.

A thin film of grease on the lid rim helps it seal, and sliding the lid sideways opens it more safely than lifting it straight up. Allow very hot crucibles to cool for a moment before placing them inside, keep within the -25 to 120 °C operating range, and replace or regenerate the desiccant once it is spent. Because this model works without vacuum, choose a vacuum desiccator for drying under reduced pressure.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The number of desiccators for your balance room or bench.
• Whether a desiccant such as silica gel or calcium chloride should be quoted with it.
• Whether you need drying under vacuum, in which case a vacuum desiccator is the better choice.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the OEM of the Eksikator and manufactures it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India.

Because the desiccator comes straight from the factory, laboratories and schools can ask the manufacturer directly about replacement porcelain plates or extra units, and dealers and importers receive quotations without a middleman. Our company profile tells you more.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Eksikator?
Eksikator is another name for a desiccator, a closed laboratory vessel that keeps its contents in dry air over a desiccant. This Eksikator is a non-vacuum model, 220 mm in diameter, with a porcelain plate that supports crucibles and samples.

What are the size and temperature limits of the Eksikator?
The Eksikator has a diameter of 220 mm and an operating temperature range of -25 to 120 °C. Let hot crucibles cool briefly before placing them on the porcelain plate so that the vessel stays within this range.

Which desiccant should be used in the Eksikator?
Silica gel and anhydrous calcium chloride are common choices for the Eksikator. A desiccant is not part of the listed contents, so order it separately and replace or regenerate it when it can no longer absorb moisture.

Can the Eksikator be used under vacuum?
No. The Eksikator is described as a desiccator without vacuum, so it is meant for drying and storage at normal pressure. For work under reduced pressure, choose the Vacuum Desiccator from our range instead.

Who manufactures the Eksikator?
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, is the OEM manufacturer of the Eksikator. It is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to institutions, dealers and importers.

Can the Eksikator be ordered in bulk or for export?
Yes. ScienceLab supplies the Eksikator to schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Send the product code SCI-133/039, the quantity and the delivery location through the contact page for a quotation.
