Nylon Syringe Filters - SF18209
The SF18209 nylon syringe filters combine a 25mm diameter with 5.0µm pore size, delivering high-flow coarse filtration and prefiltration capabilities for routine laboratory applications. Tisch Scientific's sterile syringe filters excel at removing large particulates and debris while maintaining exceptional flow rates of 300ml/min at 10 psi. SF18209 filters provide the ideal solution for protecting downstream fine filters, clarifying viscous samples, and preparing solutions that require rapid processing without compromising filtration quality.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- 5.0µm pore size rating provides efficient coarse filtration and prefiltration, removing large particulates while allowing smaller particles and dissolved components to pass through
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane enables immediate filtration of aqueous solutions without pre-wetting, maintaining consistently high flow rates throughout processing
- Exceptional flow characteristics deliver 300ml/min throughput at 10 psi, significantly reducing filtration time for high-volume applications
- Broad chemical compatibility supports filtration of both aqueous and organic solvents, accommodating diverse laboratory workflows and sample types
- Pre-sterilized configuration eliminates preparation steps and ensures contamination-free filtration for sensitive applications requiring sterile conditions
Key Construction Characteristics
- Robust polypropylene housing provides excellent chemical resistance and structural integrity, withstanding operating pressures up to 87 psi burst pressure
- 25mm diameter format offers 4.08cm² effective filtration area optimized for standard volume samples up to 100ml throughput
- Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip compatibility ensures secure connections with standard syringes and filtration equipment across various laboratory setups
- Temperature stability to 100°C permits filtration of heated samples and maintains membrane integrity during extended filtration procedures
SF18209 syringe filters deliver the high-flow performance your laboratory needs when processing standard volumes requiring coarse filtration.
