Product Overview
The Whatman HEPA-CAP is a high-performance air filter designed for critical laboratory applications requiring superior particulate retention. Engineered with HEPA-grade filtration, it effectively captures 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns, ensuring a sterile and contamination-free environment. The filter features a robust construction with a durable housing that maintains structural integrity under varying airflow conditions. Its low-pressure drop design allows for efficient air passage without compromising filtration efficiency, making it suitable for sensitive processes where airflow consistency is essential. The HEPA-CAP is manufactured under stringent quality controls, ensuring reliability and consistency in performance. Its compatibility with standard filtration systems and ease of installation make it a preferred choice for labs prioritizing air purity. The filter?s design minimizes bypass risks, providing uniform filtration across the entire surface area. Whether used in laminar flow hoods, biosafety cabinets, or cleanrooms, the Whatman HEPA-CAP delivers consistent protection against particulate contamination, supporting the integrity of experimental and production environments.
FAQs
1. What is the filtration efficiency of the Whatman HEPA-CAP?
The Whatman HEPA-CAP offers a filtration efficiency of 99.97% for particles as small as 0.3 microns, meeting HEPA standards for high-performance air purification.
2. Can this filter be used in laminar flow hoods?
Yes, the Whatman HEPA-CAP is compatible with laminar flow hoods and other systems requiring HEPA-grade filtration to maintain sterile conditions.
3. How often should the HEPA-CAP filter be replaced?
The replacement frequency depends on usage and airflow conditions, but it is generally recommended to replace the filter when airflow resistance increases or after prolonged exposure to high particulate loads.
4. Is the HEPA-CAP filter resistant to moisture?
The filter is designed for air filtration and should be used in dry conditions. Exposure to moisture may compromise its performance and structural integrity.
5. Are there alternatives to the Whatman HEPA-CAP for lower particulate retention needs?
For applications requiring lower filtration efficiency, consider ULPA filters or standard particulate filters, though they may not meet the same HEPA standards for critical environments.
