Featuring proprietary multi-layered membrane technology delivering revolutionary liquid barrier protection for serological pipette controllers and liquid handling systems. Multi-layered series of membranes placed within an ultrasonically welded device creates a check-valve effect when wet, providing superior contamination control compared to traditional single-layer hydrophobic filters. Stops, blocks and locks upon wetting to help reduce cross contamination via re-introduction of fluids from one aspiration to the next in critical laboratory applications requiring validated sample integrity.
Key Multi-Layer Membrane Characteristics
- Multi-layer barrier demonstrates higher retention than standard single layer devices while maintaining 0.8µm pore size for high-flow applications
- Membrane immediately reacts in presence of aqueous solution by stopping and blocking further passage with no possibility of blow-out
- Hydrophobic surface chemistry resists wetting until liquid contact triggers immediate and permanent blockage
- Creates less back pressure which helps extend battery life and reduces wear and tear in motorized units
- Indication of need-to-replace is plainly evident by halted operation ensuring contamination prevention
Key Construction Characteristics
- Ultrasonically welded housing provides leak-proof seal and maintains structural integrity during high-volume sampling
- Female slip to male slip connection design ensures universal compatibility with standard pipette controller configurations
- Inserts in device similarly to standard filters, generally in less than 1 minute for rapid replacement and minimal downtime
- Non-sterile construction optimized for general laboratory applications requiring contamination control without sterility validation
- Convenient 25-piece packaging provides extended operational capacity while maintaining product freshness and performance
Compatible with most serological pipette and liquid handling controllers, LE-HYBK5-25 filters deliver exceptional protection against the harmful effects of overdraw and accumulated wetting during repeated aspiration cycles. Differs from traditional pipette filter barriers by immediately blocking flow in either direction upon wetting, maximizing your sample protection while extending equipment life. Once inserted the function of the filter is no different from a standard hydrophobic filter until it becomes wetted, providing seamless integration into existing laboratory protocols requiring advanced contamination control and pipette controller protection.
