For use with chemically agressive solutions

• Autoclavable
• Hydrophobic
• Biosafe
• Air evacuation vent

Devices contain a PTFE membrane that provides highly efficient filtration in a very small area. Capsules with 1.0 µm pore size are supplied with a solvent-resistant polypropylene prefilter for extended life and are intended for use with highly contaminated solutions. The 0.05 and 0.1 µm filter devices are designed for "ultra-clean" applications.

Typically used in biotechnology applications such as sterile vents and exhausts for growth environments and in-line sterilization, in the laboratory for clean or sterile gasses, solvents, reagents and drying gasses and in pharmaceutical research as vents and in-line filters.

Polypropylene housing with all bonds fused and no extraneous materials such as glues, adhesives, metals, mold release agents or surfactants are used. Available in two sizes, 500 or 1000 cm². Inlet and outlet fittings are 1/2" (3/8" to 1/2" tubing) or 1/4" (1/4" to 3/8" tubing) step barb (SB) or 1/4" Male National Pipe Thread (MNPT) inlet fittings as noted below. Filters are sold individually.
