Description
C 26 prep stand is a laboratory accessory that simplifies sample preparation with the decomposition vessels C 5010 and C 5012 used in combustion calorimetry. The decomposition-vessel lid carrying the electrodes and crucible holder is secured by simple clamping, so both hands remain free to attach the cotton thread and insert the crucible. This practical stand from manufacturer IKA supports safe, ergonomic handling during the critical preparation steps before a calorimetric run. It is intended for routine laboratory workflows where decomposition vessels must be loaded quickly and reproducibly without additional fixtures. Compact construction keeps the unit convenient on the bench beside the calorimeter system. Supplied as a single piece, the stand complements existing C 5010 and C 5012 vessel setups and helps standardise the preparation sequence for liquid and solid samples prior to oxygen filling and combustion. Net weight is 0,940 kg, making the unit easy to position and store when not in use. Designed for everyday laboratory use in teaching, research and industrial environments that rely on IKA calorimeter accessories.

Questions about C 26, Prep stand
What is this article?
C 26, Prep stand is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Stands, rods & bases, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A retort stand is a base and a rod. The base mass keeps a clamped flask from tipping. Rod diameter decides which bossheads fit. A light base under a heavy condenser is how glassware falls.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
