Vacuum Filtration

Laboratory vacuum filtration is an easy and convenient way to filter fluids and can be generated using a pump, in-house vacuum lines, or by a faucet aspirator system. Vacuum filter units, also known as bottle top vacuum filters, are popular for sterile media and buffer preparation. We offer a full selection of VacuCap® & VacuCap PF (Pre Filter) Vacuum Filtration Devices offering a bottle free bottle top filter.

Laboratory vacuum filter units are popular lab essentials to filter media, serum, buffers and small-batch reagents. Important properties of vacuum filters include:

• Fast flow rates
• High throughput
• No extractables
• Low binding

• Eliminate contamination, risk of spills and lost time by drawing fluid directly from mixing flask into the filter unit.
• Use the full filtration potential (up to 5 liters) to fill multiple media bottles
• Improve safety and ergonomics through eliminating repeated lifting and pouring
• Improve throughput and flow rates of difficult-to-filter solutions with a built-in prefilter, 0.8/0.2 µm VacuCap PF filter unit
• Reduce plastic waste and storage space required compared to bottle top vacuum filters.

• Replace current vacuum filter systems 
• Simplify workflow 
• Maximize filtration
