Sartorius Traditional Filter Holders and Manifolds

Description

• Individual Filter Holders The three stainless steel holder types differ only in the funnel capacity (either 40 ml, 100 ml or 500 ml)
• They have been designed specifically for applications in which the particles or microorganisms retained on the membrane filter surface are of interest
• The stainless steel frit filter support ensures a uniform distribution of the residues
• Simple handling is very important regarding routine examinations
• Stainless steel taps in the base allow the vacuum to be turned on and off
• The special closure clamps simplify the addition or removal of the funnels adding to the ease of use
• Special polished stainless steel surfaces allow easy cleaning and rinsing Filtration of 3 or 6 samples in parallel Stainless steel 304 - long lifecycle Multi-Branch Manifolds The manifold systems are available with 100 ml or 500 ml capacity funnels
• The three or six separate filter holders save time when mass examinations of 100 ml volume samples have to be carried out
• Due to the stainless steel taps on the manifold ports the vacuum for each holder can be turned on and off individually
• The stainless steel frit ensures a homogenous distribution of the residues on the membrane filter surface
• Funnel and filter support can be disinfected by flaming
• Glass Filter Holders These filter holders are available for the filtration of small volumes with a 30 ml top part and for larger volumes with a 250 ml top part
• They can be sterilized by autoclaving (max
• 134°C) or by dry heat (max
• 180°C)
• The type of the filter support is a glass frit which ensures uniform distribution of retained particles and is therefore recommended, when the residue on the filter surface is of interest as it is for microbiological analysis
• Other devices with PTFE-coated screen support are more preferable, when the filtrate is required
• Polycarbonate Filter Holders Type 16510 is complete with receiver flask, and can be operated with vacuum as well as with slight overpressure (0.5 bar is recommended for highest standing times)
• It is, together with a vacuum hand pump, a practical, cost-effective system for the filtration in the laboratory or outside
• Type 16511 is like 16510, but without receiver flask
• It is used on a suction flask or a vacuum manifold e
• g
• Combisart™ systems
• Both devices can be sterilized by autoclaving (max
• 121°C)
• The polycarbonate material withstands numerous cycles, provided aggressive cleaning agents are completely washed off and that the steam does not contain anti corrosive, anti-scaling boiler water additives.
