Whatman PolyVENT venting filter
Draining or filling of incubators, fermentation tanks, and other vessels requires a venting filter capable of preventing bacterial contamination. With an integral PTFE filter membrane, Whatman PolyVENT acts as an industrial air filter media for sterilization* of gases entering bioreactors such as fermentation tanks.
Specifications:
- Pore Size: 0.2 µm
- Filtration Media: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
- Housing: Polypropylene (PP)
