Materials of Construction

• Funnel Barrel, Support Screen, and Adapter Tube: Type 304 stainless steel
• Cap and Base: Type 303 stainless steel
• Hose Barb: Type 316L stainless steel
• Gaskets: PTFE
• O-Ring: Viton*

Effective Filtration Area

• 9.6 cm²

Dimensions

• Housing Length: 16.4 cm (6.5 in.)
• Diameter: 5.8 cm (2.3 in.)

Funnel Capacity

• 200 mL

Connection

• ¹⁄₈ in. -27 FNPT pipe thread; includes hose barb adapter for 6.4 mm (¹⁄₄ in.) ID tubing; funnel stem accepts 10 mm (³⁄₈ in.) ID tubing or standard stopper

Maximum Operating Temperature

• Limited by filter type, by Viton O-ring 204 °C (399 °F), or PTFE gasket 288 °C (550 °F)

Maximum Operating Pressure

• 13.8 bar (1380 kPa, 200 psi) using compressed air or nitrogen

Sterilization

• Provided non-sterile. Autoclavable at 121 - 123 °C (250 - 253 °F) at 1.0 bar (100 kPa, 15 psi) for 15 - 20 min; dry heat if desired at 170 °C (338 °F) for a minimum of 1 hr.

Note: Not recommended for use with volatile liquids or high purity fuels as explosion may result from the static discharge.

*Do not autoclave with aluminum foil; use autoclave paper or other permeable wrap such as Tyvek.

• Best choice for rapid batch filtration of bacteriological or cell culture media, food liquids, viscous oils, hydraulic oils, or lubricants.
