Overall dimensions are 24 in length, 18 in width and 24 in height, providing substantial working volume while retaining a rectangular footprint suitable for process rooms and larger laboratory spaces. The heavy-duty covered design supports storage, holding and transfer of process and laboratory fluids where a robust polyethylene tank is preferred. Gross weight is 11,567 kg and packaging volume is 0,305 m³. Offered as one complete piece from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics under the Nalgene line, the tank-with-cover set addresses needs for durable rectangular containment without metal tank fabrication. Appropriate for laboratory, pilot-scale and industrial support duties requiring a covered LLDPE tank in the upper capacity range of this series.

Questions about Nalgene™ Heavy-Duty Rectangular LLDPE Tank with Covers
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Heavy-Duty Rectangular LLDPE Tank with Covers is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Canisters & jerrycans, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A canister or jerrycan holds litres, not millilitres, and it is shaped to be carried and to pour. The material has to survive the liquid for the whole time the can sits in the store.
A laboratory bottle is a closed container with a stated volume and a neck that takes a cap, a stopper or a dispenser. Borosilicate glass is the choice when the liquid is a solvent, or when the bottle will be heated or autoclaved. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the choice when the bottle must not shatter, or when hydrofluoric acid would attack glass. A narrow mouth pours. A wide mouth is for powders and for reaching the bottom. Laboratory ware of this kind is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Traceable volume sits with the BIPM and NIST Physical Measurement.
