AZLON Aspirators and Carboys in Laboratory Applications: Sustainable, Reliable, and Efficient Solutions
By Rachel Adams
Introduction
In laboratory settings, the need for sustainable, reliable and efficient liquid storage and handling is critical. Whether for solvents, reagents, or other solutions, large volume aspirators and carboys play an essential role in maintaining safe and smooth operations. AZLON aspirators and carboys offer a high-quality solution that combines durability, functionality, and sustainability, ensuring your laboratory runs efficiently while minimizing environmental impact.
Choice of Material
AZLON aspirators and carboys are available in two high-quality material options to cater to a wide range of user needs:
- Polypropylene (PP): Heavy-duty and fully autoclavable up to 121ºC, allowing for easy cleaning and sterilization to maintain optimal laboratory hygiene. Polypropylene is also chemically resistant, making it suitable for a wide range of laboratory applications
- High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): Offers superior chemical resistance, making it suitable for storing a broad range of laboratory reagents and solutions
These materials allow laboratories to make a long-lasting investment in containers that can withstand the demands of daily use, reducing the frequency of replacements and overall resource consumption
Capacity and Size Variants
These large volume containers are available in a wide range of sizes from 5 L to 100 L in both narrow and wide-neck styles, ensuring users can select the most appropriate container based on their specific liquid handling needs from small-scale applications to large-volume storage requirements.
Key Features and Benefits
- Leak-Free Performance: The containers are designed to be leak-proof, preventing spills and contamination of laboratory environments. The aspirator models are also equipped with a robust leak-free stopcock allowing for safe and controlled liquid dispensing.
- Sustainability: The AZLON polypropylene aspirators and carboys are part of the ACT Label Program, providing information on the products' environmental impact and designed in helping laboratories make informed purchasing decisions and improve sustainability compliance.
- Easy Volume Assessment: Clear, molded graduations provide quick and accurate volume measurements, improving efficiency during liquid management.
- Secure Handling: Provision of handles supports safe and easy management and transportation.
Applications in the Laboratory
AZLON aspirators and carboys are perfect for a wide range of laboratory applications, supporting both operational efficiency and sustainability:
- Storage and Dispensing of Distilled and Deionized Water: Minimize waste with precise dispensing and efficient storage, ensuring water is used wisely
- Waste Liquid Collection and Disposal: Safely contain and manage waste liquids, preventing spills and ensuring responsible disposal
- Chemical Storage: Reliable and long-lasting containers for chemicals help minimize the need for frequent replacements, reducing laboratory waste
Conclusion
AZLON aspirators and carboys combine durability, convenience and sustainability for efficient laboratory liquid handling. Now available with the ACT Label for the polypropylene range, leak-free performance and choice of size and material, they are an essential asset for laboratories in need of reliable storage and dispensing solutions. By incorporating these containers into everyday operations, laboratories can improve workflow efficiency and maintain a safer working environment.
