Description
Mercury collector is a compact laboratory aid for uncomplicated recovery of spilled mercury so that the metal can be collected and reused. The device consists of a tin fitted with a screw lid that holds a bonded special foam insert. When the foam insert is pressed lightly onto spilled mercury, its pores open and take up the mercury droplets. After the lid is screwed shut, the droplets detach from the foam and fall through a perforated separator disc into the tin body, separating the collected mercury for recovery. This purely mechanical collection principle from manufacturer Bürkle supports controlled handling of mercury beads in everyday laboratory work without complex accessories. The collector is supplied as a complete tin with screw lid and is intended for professional laboratory use among general laboratory materials. Net weight is 0,089 kg. The unit is non-sterile and is not dual-use classified. Origin is Germany. Simple press-and-seal operation makes the collector practical for bench-side spill response wherever elemental mercury may be handled.

Questions about Mercury collector, tub with screw cap lid
What is this article?
Mercury collector, tub with screw cap lid is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bürkle for laboratory use. It sits in Sample containers & jars, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A sample container or jar is the vessel the sample travels in, with a closure that survives the trip. The volume and the liner decide whether the sample that arrives is the sample that was taken.
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.
