Upchurch PEEK Bottom of The Bottle Solvent Filter 1 8" 10uM A-438

Description:

The Upchurch A-438 PEEK bottom-of-the-bottle solvent filter is used in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and analytical laboratory systems to filter solvents before they enter pumps and fluid delivery components. Commonly installed in pharmaceutical laboratories, research facilities, chemical analysis laboratories, and quality control environments. Laboratory technicians and analytical chemists use this filter to prevent particulate contamination and maintain reliable instrument performance.

Applications:

The Upchurch A-438 solvent filter is designed to be positioned at the bottom of a solvent reservoir where it continuously filters mobile phase solvents before they are drawn into an HPLC system. Constructed from chemically resistant PEEK material and featuring a 10-micron filtration element with a 1/8-inch connection, it is commonly used in analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical testing, biotechnology research, environmental analysis, and laboratory process development applications.
