Static evaporation rate: approximately 0.35 litres per day. Hold time: approximately 130 days static. Vacuum warranty: five years from Chart Industries.
Clinical use notes
Static evaporation rates are measured under controlled conditions without access. In a clinical setting with daily canister retrieval, plan refill intervals conservatively. The 127mm neck opening is compatible with standard canister systems used across UK IVF labs. The ten canister configuration (XC 47-11-10) is the most commonly specified variant for clinical IVF use.
