The BVV Refinement Filter is a stainless steel filtration system that provides large scale, high flow filtering, with greatly improved functionality compared to a traditional Buchner filter. Utilizing a collection base for vacuum assistance and storage of material, the Refinement Filter allows for benchtop filtration with a longer lifespan and ease of use.
Key Features:
- Stainless steel design for greater thermal conductivity and improved lifespan
- Easy to clean and disassemble with Tri-Clamp stainless steel parts
- Small tabletop footprint with wide mouth design
- Secondary collection vessel for vacuum and storage of material
- Liquid dip tube for direct injection into rotary evaporator after filling
Key Specifications:
- 216 cubic inches of liquid volume (3.5 Liters)
- 20 Liter Collection Base
- Dedicated Vacuum Valve
- Dedicated Dip Tube Valve
- Silicone gaskets with high alcohol resistance
- 1/4" Stainless steel hose barb connections
- Polycarbonate sights for easy viewing
Operation Instructions:
- Before beginning filtration, place refinement filter in freezer for best thermal conductivity
- Place Refinement Filter on bench top and secure ashless filter paper with compression ring
- Place collection base on floor and connect preferred tubing from bottom of refinement filter to the middle port on collection base
- Attach vacuum system to dedicated vacuum valve
- Begin to pour solution into filter
- Close dedicated dip tube valve and start vacuum
- Once solution has been completely filtered, stop vacuum system and disconnect from dedicated vacuum valve
- Connect dedicated dip tube valve to injection valve on rotovap
- Begin rotovap procedure
- Open dedicated dip tube valve and begin injecting filtered solution into rotovap
