Description
Woulff bottle 20000 ml, GL 45, plastic-coated is a high-capacity laboratory vacuum bottle intended for filtration and vacuum applications. Fabricated from borosilicate glass 3.3 in classic bottle form, it incorporates a glass insert fitted with removable polypropylene (PP) olives of Ø 11 mm, a ventilation valve, and an integrated clock manometer offering two scale ranges from 1000 to 0 mbar and from 760 to 0 mm Hg. The durable plastic coating acts as splinter and implosion protection, enhancing operational safety when working under vacuum. Nominal volume is 20 l with a net weight of 8,506 kg. Suitable for filtration flasks and vacuum bottle duties, the design supports secure connection and pressure monitoring in laboratory workflows. This Woulff bottle from manufacturer Rettberg delivers the mechanical stability and chemical resistance expected of borosilicate glass 3.3 while the protective coating reduces risk of glass fragmentation. It is well matched to preparative filtration, solvent handling under reduced pressure, and general vacuum line work requiring a large receiving vessel with manometer readout.
