Refinement Filter with Collection Base

The Refinement Filter is a stainless steel filtration system that provides large scale, high flow filtering, with greatly improved functionality compared to a traditional Buchner filter. Utilizing a collection base for vacuum assistance and storage of material, the Refinement Filter allows for benchtop filtration with a longer lifespan and ease of use. 

Operation Instructions:

Before beginning filtration, place refinement filter in freezer for best thermal conductivity

Place Refinement Filter on bench top and secure ashless filter paper with compression ring

Place collection vessel on floor and connect preferred tubing from bottom of refinement filter to the middle port on collection base

Attach vacuum system to dedicated vacuum valve

Close dedicated dip tube valve and start vacuum

Begin to pour solution into filter

Once solution has been completely filtered, stop vacuum system and disconnect from dedicated vacuum valve

Connect dedicated dip tube valve to injection valve on rotovap

Begin rotovap procedure

Open dedicated dip tube valve and begin injecting filtered solution into rotovap
