Desiccators & Autoclaves

Desiccators from Boekel Scientific are air-tight vessels that remove moisture from your samples. Whether you need to store chemicals and devices sensitive to moisture or static, or your experiments involve rapid food aging or getting stable weight measurements, we carry a full line of high-quality stainless steel and glass desiccators.

Our Available Desiccators

Reagents, biological specimens, sludge samples and more require storage without humidity, and a moisture-free environment is critical to testing some food products and stabilizing certain materials before weighing. Boekel Scientific offers a complete line of stainless steel and glass desiccators with one-piece neoprene door gaskets for airless security. We have both small benchtop desiccators and larger models, including Statnip static-free models for sensitive devices like CMO circuits and MOSFETs.

When your drying needs are a bit more high-tech, a powered lab desiccator, also known as an automatic desiccator or electronic desiccator, steps it up a notch. Dry out biological samples or cool down crucibles with our small and large desiccators with electrical components that automatically remove moisture from the air while you control the temperature. With many of the same shelf options, high-quality construction and two-year warranty as our non-electric small and large desiccators, these powerful dricyclers bring versatility to your team’s bench.

Cement Autoclave

In addition to our desiccator options, we supply a cement autoclave with replacement gaskets. A cement autoclave accelerates the curing process of mortar bar specimens with steam pressure and temperature. This process can determine hydraulic cement expansion with procedures outlined in ASTM C151.

Our cement autoclave is sturdy, consisting of welded steel and a heat-insulated frame. This unit is designed to endure pressure from 60-350 psi and has been pressure tested to meet all of the highest safety standards.

When you purchase the cement autoclave from Boekel Scientific, you will also receive a maintenance wrench, thermometer and five additional gaskets for replacement as necessary. We supply a two-year warranty on the autoclave to ensure it is exactly what you need.

Oasis of Inspiration

Any good scientist will tell you that most successful research involves collaboration. Seeing the environment, medicine, food production or some other area of scientific inquiry with fresh eyes often requires working with others who bring a different perspective to the laboratory bench.

Boekel Scientific has been collaborating with the best and brightest of the scientific community for over 150 years. We know that the laboratory equipment we manufacture saves lives, so we approach every design project as if our very lives depended on its success. Whether you’re looking for a specific type of glass desiccator that’s not in our catalog or your research requires a piece of equipment that doesn’t yet exist, contact us about developing a custom product made to your specifications. Our in-house design, engineering manufacturing and quality teams can help bring your inspiration into reality. We’ll build the equipment — you save the world.
