Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SPEC18226

Laboratories handling small-volume, highly turbid samples often require compact sterile prefiltration solutions. Hydrophobic PVDF syringe filters with a 5.0 µm pore size provide robust coarse particle removal. The membrane requires alcohol pre-wetting for aqueous fluids but processes organic mixtures immediately. A sterile 20mm ABS housing features threaded 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. The design efficiently handles viscous samples, extending the life of downstream filters. Researchers rely on this compact configuration 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

• Threaded double Luer Lock connections secure both inlet and outlet ports to eliminate disconnection risks
• Durable ABS housing withstands operating pressures to 72.5 psi providing mechanical strength for demanding protocols
• Sterile gamma-irradiated packaging provides contamination-free prefiltration without requiring pre-use sterilization
• 20mm diameter platform supports medium-volume clarification balancing processing capacity with material economy

Optimize your sterile workflows with a filtration device built for aggressive chemical environments. You can pre-filter organic solvents reliably without risking membrane failure. The 5.0 µm pore size ensures effective removal of large particulates to protect downstream systems. Threaded double Luer Lock connections prevent hazardous leaks when filtering toxic fluids under pressure. Rely on gamma-sterilized packaging to support strict quality control protocols in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Consistent performance ensures that your analytical instruments remain protected from particulate damage. Choose this durable solution for your most demanding prefiltration tasks.

Hydrophobic

• Viscous Sample Prefiltration - Handle high-viscosity pharmaceutical formulations where large pores maintain flow rates in compact sterile processing
• Environmental Sample Processing - Prefilter turbid soil extracts and water samples, removing coarse suspended solids before fine filtration
• Chemical Manufacturing - Process particulate-laden chemical intermediates where solvent resistance maintains membrane integrity
• Biological Sample Clarification - Remove large cellular debris from lysates before fine filtration, protecting downstream membranes from fouling
• Equipment Protection - Guard sensitive analytical instrumentation from coarse particulates that damage pumps, detectors, and columns
• Quality Control Prefiltration - Prepare heavily particulate samples in sterile environments where compact design and contamination control matter
