Product Description

The GE PTFE (Teflon®) syringe filter is designed to filter most aggressive solvents, acids and base samples. These units are recommended for HPLC solvent and gas chromatography filtration. They are excellent for filtering and degassing solvents before analysis.

The membrane filter in the GE PTFE (Teflon®)(F) filter is GE Osmonics' naturally hydrophobic Teflon® (PTFE), which is autoclavable and will not release extractables into the sample. See the section on Teflon® membrane filters for membrane details.

The GE PTFE (Teflon®) with glass fiber prefilter (FG) syringe filter features a 1.0 micron glass prefilter over our Teflon® filter. The GE PTFE (Teflon®)(FG) Glass Fiber Prefilter syringe filter is designed to sterilize or clarify most aggressive solvent, acid and base samples with a high particulate load with high throughputs and quick flow rates.

The GE 17F and 30F are made of pure polypropylene housing which is autoclavable. All units are tested to verify the filter and housing integrity. Each unit is individually labeled with pore size and filter type for quick, easy identification.
