Omicron 130047 Borosilicate Glass Fiber Binder Free Filter 1.6µm 47mm

Description

Product Overview

The Omicron 130047 Binder Free Filter is engineered for high‑performance laboratory filtration. Constructed from premium borosilicate glass fiber, the membrane provides exceptional chemical resistance and structural integrity, ensuring consistent performance even under demanding conditions. With a precise 1.6µm pore size, the filter captures fine particulates while allowing a high flow rate, making it suitable for a wide range of analytical and preparative processes. The 47 mm diameter format fits standard laboratory filter holders, offering a compact footprint without compromising capacity. Each pack contains 100 filters, delivering cost‑effective scalability for routine workflows. The binder‑free design eliminates potential leaching of organic binders, preserving sample purity and reducing background interference. This filter is a reliable choice for researchers who demand reproducibility, durability, and contaminant‑free results in their experiments.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the Omicron 130047 filter excels in diverse laboratory settings. It is ideal for sample preparation in chromatography, spectroscopy, and microbiology, where removal of suspended solids and microorganisms is critical. The filter’s robust glass fiber matrix withstands aggressive solvents such as acids, bases, and organic mixtures, making it suitable for chemical synthesis, quality control, and environmental testing. Users can employ the filter in vacuum filtration setups, pressure‑driven systems, or syringe assemblies, adapting to both low‑volume and high‑throughput applications. Its binder‑free composition ensures that no extraneous substances are introduced into the filtrate, preserving the integrity of sensitive assays. The filter’s 1.6µm rating is particularly effective for retaining bacteria, yeast, and fine particulate matter, while still permitting rapid filtration of liquids, reducing processing time and labor. Whether you are processing biological samples, pharmaceutical intermediates, or industrial reagents, this filter provides consistent performance and reliable protection against contamination.

FAQ

What types of samples can I filter with the Omicron 130047?

The filter is suitable for a broad range of liquid samples, including aqueous solutions, organic solvents, biological fluids, and environmental extracts. Its 1.6µm rating effectively removes bacteria, yeast, and fine particulates while allowing clear liquids to pass quickly.

Is the filter compatible with high‑pressure filtration systems?

Yes. The borosilicate glass fiber membrane is engineered to withstand typical laboratory pressures used in vacuum or pressure‑driven filtration setups. However, it is recommended to follow manufacturer guidelines for maximum pressure limits to avoid membrane damage.

Can I reuse the filter after cleaning?

While the filter is designed for single‑use applications to guarantee optimal performance, it can be gently rinsed with compatible solvents if a reuse scenario is required. Reuse may affect pore integrity and filtration efficiency, so validation testing is advised before implementation.

How does the binder‑free design benefit my experiments?

Traditional filters often contain polymer binders that can leach into the filtrate, introducing contaminants that interfere with sensitive analytical methods. The binder‑free construction of the Omicron 130047 eliminates this risk, ensuring that the filtered sample remains chemically pure and free from extraneous organic residues.

What is the shelf life of the filter?

When stored in a dry, temperature‑controlled environment, the filter maintains its performance for several years. It is recommended to keep the packaging sealed until use to protect the membrane from moisture and dust.
