Inline Hydrophobic Suction Bacteria Filter - China Suppliers & Factory for Suction Aspirators
Product Introduction
A suction bacteria filter is specifically designed as a replacement component tailored for use with suction aspirator. In aspirator systems, suction filter is commonly placed between the suction pump and the secretion canister to prevent bacterial and particulate contaminate from entering hospital suction system or equipment.
A suction filter generally consists of two housings sealed around a filtering hydrophobic membrane, and the effectiveness of a suction filter to act as such a sterile barrier mainly depends on its key component: the hydrophobic PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane built into the filter. The custom-made 0.2μm PTFE membrane allows adequate airflow to pass through while effectively blocking liquids, bacteria, aerosolized particles and other microorganisms with 99.9% efficiency, preventing any potential introduction of harmful contaminants into the suction system, reducing the risk of infections that could compromise patient health or equipment functionality.
Engineered to meet high standards of quality and compatibility, the suction filters we provide can be seamlessly integrated into various hospital aspirator systems, providing reliable filtration that upholds the integrity of the aspirator's functionality. Regular replacement of this filter is recommended to sustain uninterrupted operation and adherence to health protocols.
Features
- Hydrophobic filter
- Two-side 0.2μm PTFE membrane
- High and stable air flow rate
- Liquid barrier with high WBT pressure rating
- High biosafety level
- 100% Inspection
Applications
- Suction systems
- Gas sampling lines
- Medical breathing systems
- Single-use venting filters
Warnings
- Handle with care to avoid damaging the filter material.
- Sterilization by irradiation is not recommended.
- Do not use glue or cyclohexanone for joining with housing as it will clog the material itself, preventing gas from passing through.
- Avoid contact with alcohol or highly permeable solvents, otherwise, the material will become hydrophilic before it fully dries.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary purpose of a suction bacteria filter?
It is designed as a replacement component for suction aspirators, positioned between the suction pump and the secretion canister. Its main purpose is to prevent bacteria, liquids, and particulate contaminants from entering and compromising hospital suction systems or equipment.
What makes the PTFE membrane in the filter so effective?
The filter utilizes a custom-made 0.2μm hydrophobic PTFE membrane. This membrane allows adequate airflow to pass through while blocking liquids, bacteria, aerosolized particles, and other microorganisms with a 99.9% efficiency.
What are the main features of these suction filters?
Key features include a hydrophobic design, a double-sided 0.2μm PTFE membrane, a stable and high airflow rate, a reliable liquid barrier with a high WBT pressure rating, a high biosafety level, and 100% product inspection.
In which applications can these suction filters be used?
These filters are suitable for suction systems, gas sampling lines, medical breathing systems, and single-use venting filters.
What precautions should be taken when using the suction filter?
Handle the filter carefully to avoid structural damage. Avoid sterilization by irradiation, do not use glue or cyclohexanone for housing connections (as they clog the material), and prevent contact with alcohol or highly permeable solvents to maintain hydrophobicity.
