ELVEFLOW PEEK Bubble Trap - Medium Buy ELVEFLOW products from MSE Supplies at the best value. Product Description PEEK Bubble Trap MEDIUM Internal volume 95 µL. Autoclavable. Replacement PTFE membrane (1pc Ref KBT-X-0)). 1/4"-28 Fittings for 1/16" Tubing (2pcs). Biocompatible and Autoclavable Bubble Remover Get rid of bubbles easily! This new and improved version of Elveflow’s bubble trap is now autoclavable, thanks to the use of PEEK (Polyetheretherketone). On top of this, the body remains biocompatible. A new design came to life from working together with engineers and researchers. Stable, sturdy and user-friendly, this new bubble trap ensures leak-proof setups. Working Principle The bubble trap uses a micro-porous PTFE membrane. When a fluid containing gas bubbles flows through the trap, the bubbles are expelled through the hydrophobic membrane that allows absolutely no aqueous liquid to leak. It is possible to get rid of bubbles in a fluid even with a small pressure difference across the membrane. The liquid sample has to be pushed towards the bubble trap inlet and not aspirated from the trap outlet to avoid cavitation issues (generating bubbles). This bubble trap can be used in two modes: a passive mode, and an active mode where a vacuum line can be added. In this second mode, the vacuum outlet of a pressure generator, such as the OB1 Mk4, can be used to maximize the bubble trap efficiency. This bubble trap can be used with or without vacuum assistance, and a vacuum source such as the OB1 MK4 can be connected to maximize the bubble trap’s efficiency. This trap is typically used in the range of 0.5 – 2.0 ml/min, but up to 60ml/min can be achieved when a vacuum line is used.
