The Vent Filter with CO2 trap is designed to protect highly sensitive stored pure water from possible contaminants in the environment. These include carbon dioxide, particles, micro-organisms and volatile organic compounds that mainly come from the laboratory atmosphere. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water, it forms bicarbonate and carbonate ions. This reaction increases the ionic content of the pure water and compromises the pure water quality. The vent filter significantly reduces atmospheric organic and ionic contamination entering the reservoir. The vent filter must be replaced once a year for best results.
Synonyms: Vent filter (12") with CO2 trap
Application: For use with SDS storage tanks with pure water.
