Detailed information
SnowPack® enables you to obtain a -79 °C dry ice tablet weighing 50 or 250 g within a few moments, without complicated technology and without electricity! You can therefore obtain low-cost cooling to very low temperatures at any time you like.
Dry ice is easy to handle, odourless and flavourless. The SnowPack® dry ice machine can be installed on any commercial CO2-bottle with a standpipe (without pressure regulator) (thread W 21.80 x 1/14" according to DIN 477-1 No. 6). These often exist in many production facilities and laboratories anyway. If this is not the case, a bottle can be rented for a small price from a local specialist gas distributor.
Typical application area of the product
SnowPack® is often used in hospitals, universities, schools, institutes, laboratories, in the chemical industry and in materials testing facilities.
Examples of use: Lowering the temperature in cooling baths or cold traps, pre-cooling tissue samples, ensuring safe transport or embedding biological substances, freezing blood and tissue samples, studies in chemistry, physics and materials technology, etc.
How to use the product
- Simply screw SnowPack® onto a CO2 bottle with standpipe.
- Open the valve, CO2 gas flows into the SnowPack® and crystallises to dry ice.

HotGrip
Hand protection made of silicone rubber highly resistant to cold and heat. Protects fingers and hands from burns and freezing when working with apparatus which has extreme temperatures. HotGrip is resistant to temperatures from -50 °C to +200 °C (briefly up to +250 °C). Deep frozen, hot or even boiling substances and apparatus can be safely handled and positioned. Silicone rubber is extremely elastic and slip-proof, so that even smooth surfaced apparatus such as hot glass flasks can be securely gripped.
