Exhaust Filter - Optimized Absorbent
In our continuous work to improve our products, VICI has optimized the absorbent for increased capacity. Each detector contains 65 g of absorbent, which guarantees the prolonged lifetime of VICI exhaust filters.
The excellent capacity of our new absorbent leads to longer lifetimes - up to 10 months for methanol and 8 months for acetonitrile.*
*Based on results of our tests (water/organics = 50/50; flow rate 1.0 ml/min during the day, 0.5 ml/min overnight, 0.1 ml/min during weekends).
NOTE
- Disposal of the saturated filters must be done according to the local regulations for chemical waste.
TECH TIP
- Larger capacity = longer lifetime = lower costs
- As a general rule, halving the flow rate doubles the lifetime at constant composition and temperature. Doubling the flow rate halves it.
