The BVV 5 Gallon 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: Large 6" Diameter x 12" Long Dewaxing Column 20 Liter Collection Base 5 micron Sintered Stainless Steel Filter Disc 100 Pack of 6" Ashless Filter Paper (BIO-1-180) Dedicated 3/8" Vacuum Valve Dedicated 3/8" Dip Tube Valve Silicone gaskets with high alcohol resistance 3/8" Stainless steel hose barb connections Polycarbonate sights for easy viewing 2" Tri-Clamp Short Sight Glass for Flow Viewing Operation Instructions: Before beginning filtration, place refinement filter in freezer for best thermal conductivity Secure ashless filter paper with filter plate ring Place collection base on floor and connect tubing from refinement filter to to a vacuum pump Attach vacuum system to the 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
