Key Glass Microfiber Membrane Characteristics

Binderless borosilicate construction eliminates organic extractables to prevent sample contamination during critical water quality analysis
HEPA-type efficiency with 1.5µm particle retention captures fine suspended matter while optimizing filtration speed
Hydrophobic surface chemistry resists moisture interference and maintains structural integrity during extended filtration cycles
High flow rate design with exceptional loading capacity accelerates sample processing for high-volume laboratory operations
Superior wet strength maintains dimensional stability throughout rigorous EPA 2540D filtration protocols requiring vacuum filtration and thermal processing

Key Construction Characteristics

Standard 24mm diameter accommodates universal filter holders and EPA-specified sampling equipment configurations
Nonsterile format ready for immediate use in routine environmental testing and wastewater treatment monitoring
Glass fiber matrix withstands drying temperatures of 103-105°C required for gravimetric solids analysis without degradation
Chemical resistance to acids, bases, and organic solvents maximizes compatibility with diverse sample matrices
Consistent thickness and porosity ensure reproducible results across analytical batches for quality assurance programs

LE-TSS2400 filters achieve outstanding performance for regulatory compliance testing, delivering validated results for total suspended solids analysis critical to wastewater treatment plant monitoring and environmental discharge permit requirements. Exceptional chemical purity and absence of binding agents transforms these filters into reference-grade media for HPLC eluent filtration, membrane prefilter applications, and moisture analysis protocols demanding contamination-free processing. The proven borosilicate glass construction provides reliable separation of suspended matter including silt, clay, plankton, and organic wastes, enabling accurate quantification of pollutant loads essential for water quality assessment and environmental protection compliance.
