Simple filtration equipment made of polycarbonate. It has a funnel and receptor small bottle, both with 250 ml of capacity.
It can works with vacuum or light pressure (maximum 0.5 bar). In combination with a manual vacuum pump. It is an ideal equipment for the filtration of samples out of the laboratory.
In the case of sterile filtration, the filter-holder is equipped with a glass microfiber filter with 13 mm diameter, that allows the sterile ventilation for the compensation of pressure and with this form, avoid the contamination of the sterile sample. The funnel is adapted to the central aperture of the cover and avoids the spill of the liquid in the funnel.
The code 16511 is formed, only, for the upper part of the equipment (funnel and filterholder). This is used also as a vacuum filtration funnel in filtration systems as Combisart® or in FILTER-LAB® nylon manifolds.
Parts and materials:
Funnel with cover, lid cap, a vacuum outlet connector made of polycarbonate.
Silicone rings lid (80 x 3 mm), filter holder (40 x 5 mm) and opening system made of polypropylene.
Compounding:
Cod. 16510 Full equip
