Light weight and shatterproof, Thermo Scientific Nalgene vacuum chambers and desiccators provide a safer, more ergonomic alternative to glass. These products can make significant contributions to your lab safety program. Make your vacuum connections with non-toxic Nalgene orthophthalate-free vacuum tubing. For field applications and areas with limited access to an electric-powered vacuum source, Nalgene hand-operated vacuum pumps or a water-generated vacuum provided by a Nalgene vacuum aspirator may provide a low cost, convenient solution.

Repairable Hand-Operated Vacuum Pumps

Hand-operated vacuum pumps are a convenient choice in the lab or field where an electric-generated vacuum source is unavailable. Repair kits are available to keep them operating at top efficiency for extended product life and sustainable "fix-it-don't replace-it" value support. Pumps feature full blank port pressure with only two strokes and single finger trigger release for easy and controlled rate of vacuum release. Nozzle fits standard 1/4" (6 mm) ID tubing and each unit comes with a 2 ft. (0.6 m) length of Nalgene PVC vacuum tubing.
