G50 Vacuum/Vent Syringe Filters
Our G50 Disc Capsules (50mm diameter) have been specially designed for simple, quick, and efficient filtration of gases. Nine different media options can be placed in an all-polypropylene or polyethylene shell construction for excellent chemical, gas compatibility. The small, compact design of the filter capsule allows for superior air flow rate and low backpressure. Ideal for vacuum pump protection from contamination. A hydrophobic 1µm or smaller micron size should be used for the application.

Applications:
Designed for vacuum/Vent applications
G50C filters can be used as a hydrophobic barrier to protect from viral and bacterial contamination. PTFE 0.2um and PE 0.2um rated filters can be used in sterile vent applications with extremely low resistance. Provides an ideal effective barrier for vacuum/vent protection from bio-hazardous contamination. The filter assists in meeting the 29CFR1910.1030 OSHA Blood borne Pathogen Standard by serving as an “Engineering Control” to reduce human exposure. It can be used as a hydrophobic barrier to protect from viral and bacterial contamination.
Gamma sterilization resistant options are available with PE membrane and PE shell.
