- Optimize your workflow and take control of your testing:
- Different filtration heads fit to both reusable and disposable filtration devices
- Easy to prevent biofilms: easy access to all inner parts for efficient cleaning, each component can be removed by hand and autoclaved
- Quick-fit connections for the vacuum tubing
- Low height for ease of use in laminar flow hoods
- The EZ-Fit® Manifold design eliminates sources of contamination
- When filtering water, beverages and other liquids, residual amounts of sample can become trapped in nonaccessible areas of the filtration equipment, leading to the formation of a biofilm. Biofilms are aggregates of microorganisms protected by an extracellular matrix. Once formed, they are very difficult to eliminate and can eventually cause false positive results by contaminating the test. With the EZ-Fit® Manifold, biofilm formation can be prevented because every single component can be removed for easy cleaning and autoclaving.
- All internal areas are accessible and can be brushed/cleaned efficiently.
- Filtration heads, valves and tubing connections are all easily removable.
- The design of the 2-way valve prevents the user accidentally touching the filtration head while opening or closing the valve.
