A new concept for lab filtration apparatus from Ace Glass
The filter unit has four basic parts; the funnel, flask, nylon adapter piece, and a removable glass fritted disc. The unit can be completely disassembled for easy cleaning. Instead of a sealed-in glass fritted support, the discs can be easily removed and cleaned, and offer the availability of different frit sizes, from extra coarse to extra fine. The adapters are also available in PTFE or other polymers via special order. The assembly is autoclavable.
For 25 mm version, see 89083-544. For 75 mm version, contact your Avantor representative.
Using the famous Ace-Thred design, Ace was able to thread the filter funnel and filter flask together without the silicone stopper and troublesome clamping device. This design also eliminates leakage and alignment issues.
