Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SPEC18216

Laboratories processing highly turbid organic samples require effective gross prefiltration to protect downstream equipment. Hydrophobic PVDF syringe filters with a 5.0 µm pore size deliver robust coarse particle removal. The membrane requires alcohol pre-wetting for aqueous fluids but handles organic solvents immediately. A sterile 25mm polypropylene housing features double Luer Lock connections for secure attachment. The secure design prevents leaks when processing hazardous fluids under pressure. Validated gamma-sterilization ensures contamination-free handling for critical applications. Researchers rely on this durable design for chemically aggressive environments.

Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics

Hydrophobic surface chemistry requires pre-wetting with alcohol before processing aqueous samples, but allows direct filtration of organic solvents
Coarse 5.0 µm pore size delivers efficient clarification and particle removal for heavily loaded samples without bacterial retention
Exceptional chemical resistance maintains compatibility with aggressive organic solvents, including chlorinated compounds and aromatic hydrocarbons
Naturally hydrophobic surface enables gas venting applications by efficiently displacing air from liquid handling systems
Extended temperature stability to 80°C accommodates warm sample filtration and elevated-temperature solvent applications

Key Construction Characteristics

Double Luer Lock connections secure both inlet and outlet ports to eliminate disconnection risks
Robust polypropylene housing withstands operating pressures to 72.5 psi providing mechanical strength for demanding protocols
Sterile gamma-irradiated packaging provides contamination-free prefiltration without requiring autoclave sterilization
25mm diameter platform supports medium-volume clarification for samples up to 100 mL balancing capacity with economy

Optimize your laboratory workflows with a prefiltration solution built for aggressive chemical environments. You can remove large debris from organic solvents without risking rapid membrane fouling. The coarse 5.0 µm pore size extends the life of finer downstream filters. Secure Double Luer Lock connections ensure leak-free operation during manual or automated processing. Rely on gamma-sterilized packaging to support strict quality assurance protocols. The durable design protects analytical instruments from damage caused by heavy particulate loads. Choose this reliable filter for your most demanding sample preparation tasks.
