Exhaust Filter w/ ESL Indicator
High surface area activated carbon for HPLC emission reduction
Active Solvent Adsorption
Reduce toxic fumes and noxious odors from HPLC solvent waste with activated carbon exhaust filters designed for vapor capture. Each filter features a button-activated lapse timer to help estimate its time in service and provide a visual reminder for replacement (medium filters include a 3-month timer, while large filters include a 6-month timer) The actual lifespan of filter cartidges depends on several factors, including the type and concentration of solvents used. For real-time end-of-service-life detection—particularly when working with normal-phase or highly volatile solvents—we offer filters equipped with a chemical-change breakthrough indicator. This feature reveals a color change upon exposure to common HPLC organic solvents. Designed for continuous solvent vapor flow in analytical or semi-preparative HPLC instruments, these filters can be connected to various point-source emissions by adapting to the Type D (1/4” NPT) female port at the filter’s receiving end. Dispose of used filters according to local safety codes and regulations.
Track time from point of activation
All cartridges are equipped with a lapse timer which tracks time in service from the moment of activation. Press the button to initiate and provide a clear visual reminder for replacement scheduling. Medium filters feature a 3-month timer, while Large cartridges include a 6-month version.
Chemical-change ESL Color Indicator
Recommended for real-time monitoring of solvent breakthrough, an optional chemically-activated, color-changing end-of-service life (ESL) indicator is available with select filter cartridges. Also available separately in “sticker” form; simply peel-and-stick to the output end of the cartridge.
