Port Cap Waste Manifold fits Nalgene 38-430, 10-Port, size L (4 x 1/4" NPT, 6 x 1/4-28), Polypropylene, Cap Only

Safe and Secure Waste Solvent Collection with a polypropylene 10-port manifold

Many lab instruments (such as HPLC, LC-MS, FPLC, SFC and others) rely on the use of volatile organic solvents, which pose significant health and safety concerns for those working nearby. Because these machines are active systems, continuously pumping solvents from reservoirs to the instrument and then to waste, a dynamic containment solution is essential for managing waste effluent. Upgrade your lab's safety and efficiency with our collection of Solvent Waste Collection Caps. Designed for HPLC, LC-MS, FPLC, SFC, and other analytical instruments, a closed system provides the safest solution for managing volatile organic solvents.

Specifications:

• Fits Nalgene plastic bottles with a 38-430 threaded closure
• Polypropylene manifold is economical and has good chemical compatibility (Note: PTFE can be special-ordered for use with aggressive solvents like Hexane, THF, or Methylene Chloride that damage polypropylene)
• Polypropylene outer spin collar prevents tubing from tangling
• Size Large = Includes Size A & D ports
• 6 "Type A" holes accept 1/4-28 UNF tubing adapters (sold separately)
• 4 "Type D" holes accept 1/4” NPT tubing adapters (sold separately)
• Use in conjunction with an exhaust filter for controlled airflow and effective mitigation of evaporation (sold separately)

For bottles with a 38/430 thread type

The 38-430 thread finish is a widely used standard for plastic bottles in laboratories such as Nalgene 4 liter plastic bottles. Unlike 38 mm glass threads, the 38-430 thread on plastic bottles often incorporates additional height and structure, making it incompatible with most GL38 caps, despite being the same diameter. This thread finish must match for an airtight seal.

Our port caps are designed for "active" systems that continuously pump solvents. They offer a secure and effective way to collect solvent waste from your lab instruments. Balanced to control airflow with effective mitigation of both evaporation and fumes, protecting lab personnel and preventing the loss of expensive reagents. Upgrade your lab's safety and efficiency with our closed-system solution for solvent handling. Please note that caps without a built-in air check valve require an alternative way to accept air into the bottle as the solvent is displaced; such as part # WF-PR-115 air inlet valve or by attaching a nitrogen or helium gas line in order to sparge the solution prior to use.

For labs which do not need to use groundable safety containers, we offer these port caps to adapt to standard drum and pail closures, as well as Nalgene® 83B, 53B, and 100-415 carboys. PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO GROUND DRUM, PAIL, GLASS BOTTLE AND CARBOY (NON-JUSTRITE®) CONTAINERS; THIS MAY RESULT IN A SAFETY HAZARD WITH FLAMMABLE SOLVENTS.
