Laboratory Dewar Flasks โ safe handling of cryogens at the bench
Laboratory Dewar flasks give research teams a safe way to hold small quantities of liquid nitrogen, argon or dry-ice slurries at the bench. REAL GAZ supplies flasks from 0.5 to 25 litres, with metal or protected-glass construction, together with funnels, lids and tongs.
Smaller volumes mean easier handling, lower risk and less waste.
Smaller volumes mean easier handling, lower risk and less waste.
Our laboratory range is selected with reference to ISO 21029-1, EN 1252-1 and laboratory safety guidance under ISO 17025 management systems.
๐ญ Where Laboratory Dewar Flasks Are Used
- โ๏ธ Cold traps โ Dewar flasks cool glass traps in vacuum lines and rotary evaporators to catch volatile solvents;
- ๐ฌ Sample freezing โ tissue and reagent samples are snap-frozen before storage or lyophilisation;
- ๐ฅ Spectroscopy โ liquid nitrogen cools infrared and X-ray detectors during measurement;
- ๐ Teaching laboratories โ students observe phase changes and low-temperature effects under supervision.
๐ก Why Choose REAL GAZ
- โ Bench-friendly sizes โ capacities from 0.5 to 25 litres suit sinks, fume cupboards and small rooms;
- ๐งช Protected construction โ glass models carry protective sleeves to reduce implosion risk;
- ๐ฏ Complete accessory range โ lids, stands, funnels and tongs help laboratories work cleanly;
- ๐ Reliable liquid supply โ we deliver refills at an agreed interval so experiments never wait.
- ๐ Certificate of Analysis (CoA) โ supplied with every order.
๐ฆ Handling & Storage of Laboratory Dewar Flasks
- Place flasks in a drip tray on a stable bench, away from walkways.
- Never fill a warm flask rapidly; pour in stages to limit thermal shock.
- Keep the laboratory ventilated, because boiling nitrogen reduces oxygen.
- Choose metal flasks for rough handling and glass flasks where you need to see the liquid level, always with a protective sleeve.
- Pre-cool a new flask with a small amount of liquid before filling it fully, to prevent thermal shock.
- Keep a spill kit, face shield and insulated gloves near the bench where Dewars are used.
- Let us deliver small, frequent refills if your storage space is limited, as this reduces the quantity held in the room.
- Record each fill and each top-up in the laboratory log book, which helps new colleagues understand normal consumption and spot unusual losses.
๐ฌ Quality Control & Safety
- inspection of glass liners and protective coatings;
- vacuum and thermal-loss check;
- cleanliness verification before liquid fill;
- leak and relief-valve testing of lids where fitted.
Liquids are supplied under ADR / UN rules, with safety data sheets accompanying every delivery.
