The BVV™ Refinement Filter is a stainless steel filtration system that provides large scale, high flow filtering, with greatly improved functionality compared to a traditional Buchner filter. Utilizing a collection base for vacuum assistance and storage of material, the Refinement Filter allows for benchtop filtration with a longer lifespan and ease of use.

Key Features:

• Stainless steel design for greater thermal conductivity and improved lifespan

• Easy to clean and disassemble with Tri-Clamp stainless steel parts

• Small tabletop footprint with wide mouth design

• Secondary collection vessel for vacuum and storage of material

• Liquid dip tube for direct injection into rotary evaporator after filling

• Includes 5' of 3/8" Tygon and 1/4" Gum Rubber Vacuum Tubing

Key Specifications:

• 216 cubic inches of liquid volume (3.5 Liters)

• 20 Liter Collection Base

• Dedicated Vacuum Valve

• Dedicated Dip Tube Valve
• Drop-In Filter Plate with 100 Mesh Screen

• Silicone gaskets with high alcohol resistance

• 1/4" and (2)3/8" Stainless steel barb connections

• Polycarbonate sights for easy viewing

Operation Instructions:

• Before beginning filtration, place refinement filter in freezer for best thermal conductivity

• Place Refinement Filter on bench top and secure mesh or filter paper (paper sold separately) with drop in ring.

• Place collection base on floor and connect preferred tubing from bottom of refinement filter to the middle port on collection base

• Attach vacuum system to dedicated vacuum valve

• Begin to pour solution into filter

• Close dedicated dip tube valve and start vacuum

• Once solution has been completely filtered, stop vacuum system and disconnect from dedicated vacuum valve

• Connect dedicated dip tube valve to injection valve on rotovap

• Begin rotovap procedure

• Open dedicated dip tube valve and begin injecting filtered solution into rotovap
