Filter Support Materials

Cellulose support pads are used to reinforce filters in Millipore's monitors for contamination analysis. When saturated with growth medium, they can also be used for culturing microorganisms on membranes.

Woven mesh spacers are placed between filters in serial filtration to prevent the downstream screen filter from "blinding" the upstream filter pores. They increase flow rate and throughput.

Features & Benefits

• Avoid membrane damage during high pressure or fast flow conditions
  
• Spacers enable you to combine multiple stages of filtration into a single process step, saving time

Applications

Air Monitoring, Environmental Monitoring, Aerosol Contamination Monitoring
