Description
Carboy containers in polycarbonate (PC) with a 20 l capacity serve as large-volume laboratory vessels for storing and moving bulk liquids. The single-piece pack supplies one 20 l carboy suited to media preparation, purified water, buffers and other process fluids that require greater headspace than standard bottles. With a weight of 2,020 kg, the empty unit is still practical to position on trolleys or dedicated storage areas while maximising working volume. This carboy from manufacturer Nalgene is intended for research, industrial support and quality-control settings that rely on durable plastic bulk containers. The polycarbonate build and clearly stated 20 l capacity help laboratories standardise large-liquid handling without introducing unspecified performance grades. Falling under carboys, canisters and barrels within laboratory containers, the product emphasises straightforward geometry and material choice for everyday bulk storage and transfer. It complements smaller wash bottles and reagent vessels by covering higher-volume needs in a single, clearly specified PC carboy format for organised lab liquid logistics.
This article is part of Canisters & jerrycans, in Bottles & containers.

Questions about Carboy, PC, 20 l, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Carboy, PC, 20 l, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Nalgene 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.
