PALL 4638 VacuCap 60 PF Vacuum Filtration Devices - 0.8/0.2 µm, 60 mm, gamma-irradiated (10/pkg)

The Pall VacuCap 60 PF device is designed for vacuum filtration of laboratory liquids, especially aqueous solutions such as cell culture media, buffers, and biological samples. It allows researchers to filter solutions directly into a receiving container, reducing transfer steps and minimizing contamination risk.

This filtration device includes a dual-layer membrane system. The 0.8 µm prefilter removes larger particles, while the 0.2 µm membrane performs final microfiltration, helping remove bacteria and fine contaminants. This design improves filtration efficiency and extends filter life when working with particle-rich solutions.

The device uses a Supor® hydrophilic polyethersulfone (PES) membrane, which provides excellent chemical compatibility and high flow rates. PES membranes are commonly used in laboratories because they filter quickly while maintaining strong retention of microorganisms and particulates.

The VacuCap 60 PF device has a 60 mm diameter filter with an effective filtration area of approximately 30 cm². This filtration area helps provide efficient flow rates during vacuum filtration procedures in laboratory workflows.

Yes. These filtration devices are gamma-irradiated and individually sterilized, helping prevent microbial contamination during filtration. Sterile filtration devices are commonly used in biological research, pharmaceutical preparation, and cell culture applications.
