Safety information[edit | edit source]
Always check if the glove box is filled with Argon prior to use. Read Safety Data Sheets (SDS) before running any chemical process. If the chemical reagent is highly reactive or flammable use an oxygen/water vapor sensor inside the glove box. Note that visibility might be restricted because of the lid. In case of an opaque lid, the box can be used upside down.
