IW Tremont Groundwater Testing In-Line Filters

IW Tremont offers a unique, aqueous, in-line filter device ideal for dissolved heavy metals analysis based on the 50mm in-line filtration platform. Groundwater in-line filters are available in two version; Either "Low Metals" or "Very Low Metals". Both versions of this unique in-line groundwater filter unit features a quartz microfiber pre-filter which has inherently low metal content and provides a squeaky-clean background signature in ground water dissolved heavy metals analysis methods. The "Very Low Metals" version is proprietary HT technology which employs a complex annealing process to further reduce leaching of the quartz fiber, thereby reducing extractable background signature.

The quartz microfiber pre-filter also affords the ability to pass larger fluidic volume through the in-line filter device before any clogging or plugging occurs at the Nylon membrane stage. The 50mm diameter surface of these filters provides a large filter surface area with a high soil absorption capacity. The groundwater in-line filter unit is operated with the clear side as the inlet and white side as outlet. The unit may be connected in-line via the stepped hose barbs or with a standard slip port syringe filter inserted into clear side stepped hose barb. This in-line groundwater filter unit demonstrates excellent lot-to-lot reproducibility and is routinely verified against a standard using analysis techniques such as gas chromatography, TGA & DSC. Manufactured in the USA.
