HotBlock™: Operation and Instruction Manual 50mL HotBlock™ Accessories and Consumables
Disposable Polypropylene Digestion Vessels
These carefully engineered digestion vessels provide premium performance in your
HotBlock™™ or AutoBlock™. Molded of claried homopolymer polypropylene,
these vessels provide a higher working temperature and greater chemical
resistance than commonly used co-polymer polypropylene.
Each vessel is graduated to 50mL and has a total capacity of 68mL. Molded-in
graduations are extremely accurate, allowing analysts to easily reproduce volumes
to within 0.5%. Using the vessels’ graduations for sample measurement reduces
the need for graduated cylinders and volumetric asks while eliminating sample
transfers. The result is a “one-cup” system that greatly reduces labor and costs
associated with metals preparation.
The 33mm threaded cap is lined with a 0.040" polyethylene-faced foam liner
for a leak-proof seal. Only the metals-free polyethylene liner comes into contact
with the sample. SC475 vessels come in cases of 500 and are packaged to ship as
a standard size UPS package, keeping shipping costs at a minimum. Vessels come
standard with green caps. Vessels with white caps are also available (SC480-W).
• Certied for low metals background
• Compact packaging reduces shipping costs
• Lined closure system ensures leak-free performance with no contamination
• Accurate graduations eliminate the need for graduated cylinders
Specialty Digestion Vessels are also available for a variety of specialty applications.

Reux Cap
Special cap has a 0.5" hole in its center to allow the addition of reagents while cap
remains in place on the SC475 digestion vessel. The disposable reux cap does not
have to be removed during the digestion process. The cap is not ribbed, but ts
over the top of the SC475 digestion vessel to maintain a centered position. Tests
have shown equal reux between SC506 reux cap and SC505 watch glass.
