Microfiltration is a membrane filtration technology used to reduce particles and microorganisms from water. It is commonly used as a final point-of-use filtration stage in laboratory water systems.
Microfilters are often installed near the dispensing point to ensure that water remains protected after passing through the purification system.
Microfiltration helps reduce:
Typical final filters may have pore ratings such as 0.2 µm, depending on application requirements.
Water passes through a membrane filter with controlled pore size. Particles and microorganisms larger than the pores are retained, while water passes through.
Because microfiltration is a physical barrier, filter integrity, replacement frequency and sanitary handling are important.
Even if water is purified, contamination can occur in tubing, storage tanks, fittings or dispensing points. A final microfilter provides last-stage protection before water is used.
This is important for analytical instruments, reagent preparation and applications where particulate contamination must be minimized.
