Quartz Fiber Extraction Thimble - 2812-259
Gravimetric analysis of particulate emissions from high-temperature combustion processes depends on an extraction medium that introduces no detectable background contamination. Reflecting industry-leading standards, Whatman applies over a century of filtration media expertise to this device, manufacturing under the quality standards that established its products as global laboratory references. High-purity quartz microfiber construction withstands sustained operating temperatures up to 800°C, providing the thermal stability required for extreme emission testing environments. As a result, optimized fiber density and wall construction deliver the balance of solvent throughput and sample retention that efficient extraction workflows demand.
Key Thimble Characteristics
- Overall length of 90 mm accommodates the sample volume requirements of common analytical extraction methods.
- Quartz microfiber construction maintains structural integrity and collection efficiency in corrosive gas environments with extreme thermal and chemical exposure conditions.
- Quartz fiber construction maintains collection efficiency in corrosive gas environments with extreme thermal and chemical exposure conditions.
- Ultra-pure quartz composition with low heavy metal concentrations prevents background interference during trace element analysis of collected samples.
- Tapered thimble geometry facilitates secure loading into stack sampling equipment while maintaining consistent wall thickness for uniform particulate collection.
When your extraction results need to withstand regulatory scrutiny, the quality of your consumables matters as much as the quality of your technique. Under these conditions, purpose-built thermal resistance up to 800°C gives your laboratory the operating margin required for validated emission testing in extreme industrial conditions. Integrate Whatman filtration into your protocols to benefit from the brand recognition, lot documentation, and performance history that analytical laboratories trust worldwide.
