Vials, Septa

Crimp seals ND8 are made of aluminium. They are plain lacquered with a 4 mm hole and supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 200 °C and have better purity than septa made of natural rubber or red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications. Septa with a double-sided PTFE coating show a very low particle formation during penetration.

Crimp and headspace seals ND20 are made of aluminium and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. There are the following different types of caps available:

Plain caps with a 10 mm center hole. These caps are suitable for standard applications. They are available in several colours on request.

Clear lacquered caps, so called headspace caps, with a special score line that breaks when the internal pressure reaches 3.0 ± 0.5 bar. The excess pressure is then released, and the risk of the vial exploding can be avoided.

Clear lacquered centre tear-off caps and complete tear-off caps. These caps are available in several colours on request.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 5 mm centre hole to be used with CE HS500/HS800, CTC 500, as well as Fisons HS500 / HS800 instruments.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

Red lacquered, magnetic bimetal crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

Suitable septa with a diameter of 20 mm made of different materials are available on request.

The stackable vial racks made of transparent acrylic or blue PP allow the easy handling and secure transport of sample vials.

Transparent acrylic allows the fill level of the sample vials to be easily checked. PP is not transparent, but more robust than acrylic.

Short thread screw seals ND9 are made of PP and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They have a 6 mm centre hole and are available in different colours. The screw caps are similar in shape to the crimp caps and are therefore also suitable for robotic handling.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -200 °C to 260 °C. They are very thin and hard and characterized by high analytical purity. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore only suitable for single-injection applications.

Screw seals ND10 are made of PP and have a 10-425 thread. They have a 7 mm centre hole or are closed. Screw seals are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials or without any septa.

Suitable septa with a diameter of 10 mm made of different materials are available on request.

Crimp and headspace seals ND20 are made of aluminium and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. There are the following different types of caps available:

Plain caps with a 10 mm center hole. These caps are suitable for standard applications. They are available in several colours on request.

Clear lacquered caps, so called headspace caps, with a special score line that breaks when the internal pressure reaches 3.0 ± 0.5 bar. The excess pressure is then released, and the risk of the vial exploding can be avoided.

Clear lacquered centre tear-off caps and complete tear-off caps. These caps are available in several colours on request.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 5 mm centre hole to be used with CE HS500/HS800, CTC 500, as well as Fisons HS500 / HS800 instruments.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

Red lacquered, magnetic bimetal crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 220 °C. They are 3.0 mm thick and have a hardness of 50° shore A. They have better purity than septa made of natural rubber or red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications. The silicone is fully coated with a silver aluminium foil and is often used on Perkin Elmer instruments.

These caps made of transparent PE are generally used to seal washing bottles of autosamplers, but also for intermediate closure when collecting samples out in the field. They are available in three different dimensions with several septa.

Suitable for the following vials:
7.612 175, 7.620 146, 7.621 813, 6.204 710, 7.620 148, 7.620 147, 7.612 926, 7.615 808, 7.616 552 and 7.616 883.

The LABSOLUTE® kit ND20 consists of crimp neck vials made of clear glass of the first hydrolytic class and corresponding aluminum crimp closures with an ultraclean septum made of silicone/PTFE. The special dimensions of the vials and the modification of the closures are perfectly adapted for the use with the Metrohm 774 & 874 Oven Sample Processor for the determination of the water content according to Karl-Fischer.

Crimp neck vials ND13 made of clear first hydrolytic class glass are special products which require a minimum order quantity.

2in1 KITs contain 100 vials (1.5 ml) and 100 closures in an orange PP-Box. As both components are always required at the same time, 2in1 KITs are a convenient way to obtain and store all required items for analysis. All advantages of the individual components (cleanroom packaging of the vials, recloseability of the packaging, etc.) remain unchanged.

Any other combination of vial and seal as a 2in1 KIT available.
