DESCRIPTION
VacuShield™ vent device, a Pall Life Sciences product, protects valves and pump components from damage due to liquids, and protects laboratory personnel from potential biohazards, airborne contaminants, and aerosolized oil.
Incorporates a hydrophobic PTFE membrane
Allows air and gases to pass through freely while blocking aqueous solutions and aerosol contaminants
Offers highly effective retention of bacteria with minimal restriction of pump performance
