Description
Protective shield is a compact laboratory safety accessory made from resistant, highly transparent plastic for evaporation equipment. It provides a clear physical barrier against implosions while allowing simple and rapid access to the flask and the heating bath. Operators can observe the process continuously and reach the glassware or bath without dismantling the shield, supporting efficient set-up and in-process adjustments. This shield from manufacturer Heidolph is intended for use with rotary evaporators and related evaporation systems in research, analytical and industrial laboratories. Supplied as one piece, it combines optical transparency with mechanical robustness so that routine handling of flasks and baths remains straightforward. Net weight is 0,178 kg and gross weight 0,312 kg; packaging measures approximately 0,21 m depth, 0,20 m width and 0,11 m height with a volume of 0,005 m³. Classified among accessories for evaporation devices, the shield helps improve workplace safety around vacuum and heated glassware without blocking visibility or everyday access to the working area.

Questions about Guard shield
What is this article?
Guard shield is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heidolph for laboratory use. It sits in Heating & cooling (other), inside Heating, drying & cooling, in Lab instruments.
This shelf holds heating and cooling equipment that is not a furnace, a mantle, a bath, an oven or an incubator. The question is still the range, the stability and what the heat actually touches.
Temperature equipment either holds a set point or drives a sample toward one. An oven dries. A furnace reaches the temperatures of ashing and melting. A bath surrounds a vessel with water or oil. A circulator moves that fluid. An incubator holds the mild warmth of a culture. An autoclave uses steam under pressure to sterilise. The number that matters is the temperature the article actually reaches, not the number painted on the dial. Temperature is part of the international system kept by the BIPM and compared by EURAMET.
