Laboratory filter
Carlson can also offer a model 6/1 laboratory filter. This operates with a filter sheet of 6cm diameter (4.5cm diameter effective) and has a capacity of 80ml. A negative or positive pressure can be applied. The laboratory filter allows small quantities of product to be filtered through a variety of different filter media using different parameters, such as flow and pressure. The results from such simple trials can be scaled up to pilot plant and production scale filtration units.
