• Maintenance Free
• Made with adsorbent activated carbon
• Particle Filtration to 0.5 microns

Applications

Disposable Vacuum Pump In-Line Air Purifiers, Models VP100, VP200, VP300, and VP400 are specifically designed to remove harmful organic vapors, aerosols, fine particles, and other foreign matter from vacuum air and compressed air. Units prevent pollution of laboratory and industrial work environments. Models 250JCB, 500SKB, MF2KCB, and MF4SKB Vacuum Pump In-Line Air Purifiers are recommended for installation after mercury filled manometers, instruments and other calibration equipment. Unlike VP Series Purifiers, units are supplied with impregnated carbon for efficient adsorption of hazardous mercury vapor not readily removed by standard activated carbon

Units can be easily installed directly to vacuum pump, or system piping using standard NPT pipe fittings. Replace according to specified manufacturer's replacement, or when noticeable odor is detected on purifier discharge. When used only to remove fine particles, replace every six months from date of installation.

Mercury Removal

Models 250JCB, 500SKB, MF2KCB, and MF4SKB are manufactured with a high grade impregnated carbon specifically use for mercury adsorption. Each gram of carbon can adsorb approximately 5% of its own weight in mercury vapor. For best results, install purifier on discharge side of vacuum pump. Monitor mercury levels routinely on purifier outlet to insure effectiveness, and replac when mercury levels exceed permissible exposure levels. When removing heavy concentrations of mercury over 1500 µg/m³, it is advisable to install purifiers in series as shown below for added protection.
