Single-Use 0.2 Micron CO2 Insufflation Filter for Tubing Sets - Reliable China Suppliers & Factory Solutions
Product Introduction
Insufflation filters are integral components of insufflation tubing sets and are routinely utilized during laparoscopic surgery. Incorporating specially designed 0.2-micron two-side PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membranes which means both faces of the membrane are PTFE, these gas filters are hydrophobic on both sides with exactly the same physical properties and desired performance, and the custom-made 0.2μm PTFE membrane allows adequate airflow to pass through while effectively blocks liquids, bacteria, aerosolized particles and other microorganisms with 99.9% efficiency, preventing any potential introduction of harmful contaminants into the CO2 insufflator systems, reducing the risk of infections that could compromise patient health or equipment functionality.
As a hydrophobic filter for filtration of the insufflation gas, CO2 Insufflation filter plays a vital role in preventing bacterial and viral contamination from possible backflow, protecting both equipment and patient. And engineered to meet high standards of quality and compatibility, the insufflator filters we offer can be seamlessly integrated into various hospital insufflation systems, providing reliable filtration that upholds the integrity of the insufflator's functionality.
Features
- 0.2μm hydrophobic membrane filter
- Bacterial and viral retention
- Fluid backflow prevention
- High and stable flow rate
- Liquid barrier with high WBT pressure rating
- Equipment and patient protection
- Compatible with most insufflators
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
Q1:
What is the filtration efficiency of the CO2 insufflation filter?
The custom-made 0.2μm PTFE membrane blocks liquids, bacteria, aerosolized particles, and other microorganisms with a high efficiency of 99.9%.
Q2:
How does the double-sided PTFE membrane design benefit laparoscopic surgery?
Both faces of the membrane are hydrophobic PTFE with identical physical properties and performance. This design allows adequate airflow to pass through while effectively blocking liquids and contaminants from backflow.
Q3:
Are these filters compatible with standard hospital insufflator systems?
Yes, they are engineered to meet high standards of quality and compatibility, allowing them to integrate seamlessly into most hospital CO2 insufflator systems and tubing sets.
Q4:
Can I use glue or cyclohexanone to join the filter with its housing?
No, you should not use glue or cyclohexanone for joining with the housing. These substances will clog the filter material itself and prevent gas from passing through.
Q5:
Why should contact with alcohol or highly permeable solvents be avoided?
Contact with alcohol or highly permeable solvents must be avoided because they will cause the hydrophobic filter material to become hydrophilic before it fully dries, compromising its functionality.
Q6:
Is sterilization by irradiation recommended for this filter?
No, sterilization by irradiation is not recommended for these insufflation gas filters to avoid damaging the filter material.
