This Buchner funnel has a sintered (fritted) G3 glass disc, a standard ground-glass cone stem and a built-in vacuum hose barb. It's designed for vacuum filtration where you need a secure, airtight connection to a filtering flask.
Key Features
- Body and disc: Quality borosilicate 3.3 glass, known for its chemical resistance and thermal stability.
- Joint type: A standard ground joint (conical cone) on the stem fits straight into lab flasks.
- Design: Heavy-walled construction that safely handles the pressure difference during vacuum filtration.
- Vacuum hose barb: A hose barb (tubulation socket) is built into the stem so you can connect flexible vacuum tubing.
- Recommended tubing I.D.: 6mm to 8mm
- Barb outer diameter (O.D.): 8mm to 10mm
- Tapered barb: The barb is slightly conical. The tip is usually 1 to 2mm smaller than the base, so tubing slides on easily and then seals tightly.
- Choosing tubing: Pick tubing with an internal diameter (I.D.) that's 1 to 2mm smaller than the widest point of the barb.
- Pressure rating: For vacuum work, use heavy-wall vacuum tubing (usually rubber or silicone) so it doesn't collapse under suction.
| Porosity Grade | Pore Size (µm) | Common Application |
|---|---|---|
| G1 | 80 to 120 | Coarse filtration, rapid flow |
| G2 | 40 to 80 | Preparative filtration, crystalline precipitates |
| G3 | 15 to 40 | Analytical work, fine precipitates (most common) |
| G4 | 5 to 15 | Very fine precipitates, clarifying liquids |
| G5 | 1 to 2 | Bacterial filtration, ultra-fine particles |
| Capacity (ml) | Standard Joint Size | Approx. Disc Diameter (mm) |
|---|---|---|
| 250 | 24/29 or 29/32 | 60 |
| 500 | 24/29 or 29/32 | 90 to 95 |
| 1000 | 24/29 or 29/32 | 110 to 120 |
Usage Limitations
To avoid damaging the sintered glass disc, don't use these funnels with:
- Hydrofluoric acid (HF).
- Hot concentrated phosphoric acid.
- Hot concentrated alkaline solutions.
