Amber Dispensing Bottle

2500mL – 20000mL · Large‑capacity sizes

Amber Dispensing Bottles are essential large‑capacity containers for light‑sensitive solution storage and quantitative dispensing in laboratories, precision‑manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3. The amber glass effectively blocks UV and visible light to protect photolabile solutions from light‑induced degradation. Featuring a precision glass stopcock at the bottom or side of the body, they enable convenient liquid access and quantitative dispensing without the need for pouring. Ideal for storing and dispensing light‑sensitive distilled water, standard solutions, and various reagents in large volumes in pharmaceutical, chemical, and biology laboratories.

Product Description

Amber Dispensing Bottles are essential large‑capacity containers for light‑sensitive solution storage and quantitative dispensing in laboratories, precision‑manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3. The amber glass effectively blocks UV and visible light to protect photolabile solutions from light‑induced degradation. Featuring a precision glass stopcock at the bottom or side of the body, they enable convenient liquid access and quantitative dispensing without the need for pouring. They are the ideal choice for storing light‑sensitive distilled water, standard solutions, and various reagents in pharmaceutical, chemical, and biology laboratories.

Key Features

  • Borosilicate glass 3.3: ISO 3585 compliant, thermal shock resistant to 280°C, excellent chemical resistance
  • Amber light protection: Amber glass effectively blocks UV and visible light (290–500nm) to protect light‑sensitive solutions
  • Precision glass stopcock: Precision‑ground for a tight seal, smooth rotation, and precise dispensing control
  • Convenient dispensing: Quick liquid access via stopcock without pouring — safe and easy operation
  • Large capacities: Available in 2500mL, 5000mL, 10000mL, and 20000mL

Quality Assurance

Every unit undergoes rigorous dimensional inspection, stopcock seal integrity testing, and visual examination to ensure smooth, reliable dispensing performance.

Note: Amber Dispensing Bottles are designed for light‑sensitive solution storage and dispensing in large volumes. The stopcock should be cleaned promptly after use to prevent residue from hardening. For long‑term storage, apply a small amount of lubricant to the stopcock to maintain smooth operation.

Applications

Typical Uses

Pharmaceutical industry

Large‑volume light‑protected storage and dispensing of purified water, water for injection, and buffer solutions

Chemistry labs

Large‑volume light‑protected storage and dispensing of standard solutions, color reagents, and indicators

Biology labs

Large‑volume light‑protected storage and dispensing of media, buffers, and staining solutions

Analytical testing

Large‑volume light‑protected storage of standards and standard solutions

Food testing

Large‑volume light‑protected storage of food additive standard solutions

Compatibility Recommendations

Amber Bottle + Glass Stopcock

Standard configuration for most light‑sensitive aqueous solution dispensing

Amber Bottle + PTFE Stopcock

Recommended for light‑sensitive organic solvents and corrosive liquids

Amber Bottle + Ground Glass Stopper

Ensures sealing during light‑protected storage

Amber Bottle + Light‑Sensitive Label

Use labels with "Protect from light" warnings

Tip: Amber Dispensing Bottles are the professional choice for large‑volume light‑sensitive solution storage and dispensing. Clear dispensing bottles are suitable for general solutions, while amber dispensing bottles are recommended for light‑sensitive solutions. For light‑sensitive organic solvents and corrosive liquids, we recommend PTFE stopcock configuration.

Operation & Maintenance

Amber Dispensing Bottle User Guide

03

Before Use

  • Inspect for cracks, chips, or scratches before use
  • Ensure the bottle is clean and dry to prevent contamination of light‑sensitive solutions
  • Check that the stopcock rotates smoothly — no sticking or looseness
  • Verify stopcock seal integrity — no leakage when closed
04

Light‑Protected Dispensing Procedure

  • Pour light‑sensitive solution slowly down the inner wall to avoid splashing
  • Seal the neck with the ground stopper
  • Place the receiving container under the stopcock
  • Gently rotate the stopcock 90° to start liquid flow
  • Rotate the stopcock back to the closed position once the desired volume is reached
  • Rinse the stopcock and bottle with distilled water after use
  • The amber glass itself provides light protection — no additional shading required during storage
05

Cleaning & Maintenance

  • Clean promptly after use to prevent residue from hardening
  • Remove the stopcock and clean the bore with detergent and a soft brush
  • For stubborn residues, soak in dilute acid or specialty cleaning solution
  • Allow to air‑dry inverted on a draining rack
  • For long‑term storage, apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., petroleum jelly) to the stopcock to prevent seizing

Care & Notes

Show care & notes

Safety Notice

  • Always inspect for cracks or damage before use — damaged bottles may break during use
  • For light‑sensitive organic solvents, we recommend PTFE stopcocks to prevent glass‑to‑glass seizing
Do not
  • Do not force the stopcock if it sticks — check for crystallized residue blocking the bore
  • After dispensing light‑sensitive solutions, always cap the bottle promptly to avoid extended light exposure
  • Handle with care — avoid impact and rough handling
