JeioTech VDC-41U Vacuum Desiccator – 45L UV-Protected Polycarbonate, Cubic Type

The JeioTech AAAD4131 VDC-41U vacuum desiccator is the largest UV-protected model in the cubic-style series, designed for safe storage of high-volume, light-sensitive samples. Its amber-tinted polycarbonate body blocks UV radiation while maintaining excellent vacuum retention and structural durability. With a 3-way valve for vacuum draw and release, and a greaseless silicone seal, this 45-liter unit supports multi-level sample storage and stackable lab configurations. Ideal for laboratories requiring maximum internal space and protection from photodegradation.
