Clear Acrylic Desiccators 12" X 12" X 12" High, One (1) Cubicle Overview
The Clear Acrylic Desiccators 12" x 12" x 12" High, One (1) Cubicle (model PLA860CGNS) is a single-cubicle desiccator cabinet from Yamato Scientific, sold by LabSupplies.com as an authorized dealer. Measuring 12" × 12" × 12", this compact cabinet provides a sealed, dust- and moisture-free environment for sensitive samples.
Molded from clear acrylic, the cabinet stays fully transparent so contents remain visible without opening the door. Sealed construction isolates the interior from ambient humidity and airborne particulates, protecting hygroscopic materials and delicate components stored inside the one-cubicle compartment.
A 12-inch cube footprint suits bench placement in space-constrained labs. Each unit is manufactured in the USA and ships ready to use, requiring no electrical connection because storage relies on a sealed, passive enclosure rather than powered components.

How to Choose the Right Desiccator
Selecting a desiccator comes down to matching cabinet capacity, visibility, and footprint to your stored materials and available bench space. Review the axes below .
- Cubicle count and capacity: a single-cubicle unit like the PLA860CGNS suits focused storage; multi-cubicle cabinets separate sample sets.
- Material and visibility: clear acrylic allows contents to be checked without opening the door, reducing humidity intrusion.
- Footprint: confirm the 12" × 12" × 12" exterior fits your bench or storage location.
- Seal integrity: a sealed cabinet maintains the dust- and moisture-free environment that protects hygroscopic materials.
- Application fit: match the enclosure to research specimens, sensitive electronics, or moisture-reactive reagents.
