Advalab’s Manifold Vacuum Filtration Units are designed using corrosion-resistant stainless steel or anodized aluminum. They are typically available in multiple configurations, allowing concurrent processing of samples. Each branch features individual stopcocks or valves for selective operation. Their stable base sits securely on lab benches and supports strong suction performance. These Manifold Vacuum Filtration Units are indispensable for labs requiring reliable, high-throughput separation.
1. What is a Manifold Vacuum Filtration Unit used for?
The Manifold Vacuum Filtration Unit is used to filter multiple liquid samples simultaneously under vacuum pressure, commonly in microbiology, water testing, and pharmaceutical labs. This setup increases throughput and consistency by allowing parallel sample processing. It is especially useful when testing identical parameters across several samples in quality control and analytical procedures.
2. Can each branch be operated independently in Manifold Vacuum Filtration Unit?
Yes, each branch in Manifold Vacuum Filtration Unit features its own stopcock or valve for selective filtration without interrupting the entire system. This allows users to run one or more filtrations as needed, improving workflow flexibility. It also helps conserve resources by isolating unused ports during partial operation.
