Frequently asked questions
Common questions about AZLON from 3G Electric.
What materials are AZLON carboys made from?
AZLON carboys are molded from colorless polypropylene. This material provides chemical resistance and durability, and the colorless form allows for visual inspection of contents. Polypropylene is also autoclavable, enabling sterilization when required. The carboys feature molded graduations and a screw-on cap, with closure sizes of 45 mm or 83 mm depending on the model. The construction is consistent across the range, including the 5 L, 10 L, and 20 L capacities.
What capacities are available for AZLON rectangular carboys?
AZLON rectangular carboys are available in capacities including 5 L (1.32 gal), 10 L (2.64 gal), and 20 L (5.28 gal). The 5 L model has a 45 mm screw-on cap and dimensions of 220 mm x 270 mm. The 10 L model features an 83 mm closure and measures 280 mm x 420 mm. The 20 L model has a squat profile, an 83 mm closure, and dimensions of 350 mm x 360 mm. Each capacity is designed for laboratory liquid storage and transport.
Are AZLON carboys autoclavable?
Yes, AZLON carboys are autoclavable due to their polypropylene construction. This allows for sterilization of the carboys before use in sterile applications. The autoclavability is a standard feature across the range, including the 5 L, 10 L, and 20 L models. Users should follow standard autoclaving procedures for polypropylene labware to avoid deformation or damage.
What closure sizes do AZLON carboys have?
AZLON carboys are equipped with screw-on caps in two closure sizes: 45 mm and 83 mm. The 5 L (1.32 gal) carboy has a 45 mm closure, while the 10 L (2.64 gal) and 20 L (5.28 gal) carboys have 83 mm closures. The caps are threaded to ensure a secure seal. The closure size affects the ease of filling and pouring, with larger closures facilitating faster transfer of liquids.
Can AZLON carboys be used for transporting liquids?
AZLON carboys are designed for storing and transporting laboratory liquids. They feature molded handles for safe lifting and carrying, and screw-on caps to prevent leaks during transport. The rectangular or square shape allows for efficient use of space and stability. The polypropylene material resists many chemicals, making the carboys suitable for a variety of liquids. However, users should verify chemical compatibility for specific substances before transport.
