Solvent IFD 0.2um/10

Details

Whatman Solvent IFD from Cytiva is a high-flow in-line filter/degasser (IFD) of chemically resistent polypropylene housing and membrane. It connects to an HPLC line to simultaneously filter and degasses during mobile phase preparation.

Faster than traditional mobile phase preparation
Chemically resistant polypropylene membrane and housing, built to filter solvent mobile phases without expensive stand-alone degassing equipment
Air vent on inlet with luer lock cap
Integrity-testable with the bubble point method
Includes compression end fittings â€“ for replacements, see ourÂ IFD end fitting kit

Solvent IFD with solvent-resistant polypropylene

A sturdy and chemically resistant medium is needed to filter and degas an organic solvent. Polypropylene is largely inert, compatible with many chemicals, and retains stability across a range of temperatures. The 0.2 Âµm high-flow polypropylene membrane and housing makes Solvent IFD suitable to filter and degas these solvents.

In-line filter design

The Solvent IFDâ€™s all-polypropylene housing is sealed by a security ring. The filter includes fittings to accommodate 1/16â€â€“1/8â€ tubing and an air vent onÂ the inlet with luer lock cap to enable priming.

The in-line filter works on the principle of “bubble point-Â â€“Â the point of pressure at which gases will pass through a wet membrane. If pressure is maintained below the bubble point, the gas will not pass through the membrane and is trapped by the particular filter device.
