General description
•High collection efficiency
•Extremely low pressure drop
•Higher throughput capacity
•Black backing ensures proper orientation
Choice of Pore Sizes:
Fluoropore membranes are available in 3 µm (FSLW) and 5 µm (FMLW) pore sizes - the smaller pore size provides low FWHM; the larger pore size has very low pressure drop and greater throughput capacity, which minimizes the number of filter changeouts.
Contrasting Backing Material:
The white backing of our FMLW filter is gridded to assist in identifying membrane orientation for the correct installation into sampling devices.

In 1953, Jack Bush established the Millipore Filter Company, named after a sponge that lives in the Adriatic Sea. Millipore filters were among the first to be used for ambient air monitoring, as early as the 1970s. Particulates and contaminants in the air affect human capital, the most precious natural resource our planet supports. Recognizing the need to protect this resource, industries, governments and associated regulatory agencies around the world monitor ambient air. Millipore filters, now supplied by EMD Millipore, are used in these ambient air monitoring methods. Recently, the focus has been on PM2.5 levels, which have been linked to respiratory problems, cancer, and aging-related disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and bone damage. Major regulatory agencies have now issued guidances and methods for monitoring PM2.5. Use this brochure to select the appropriate filters for air monitoring that match the specifications with respect to regional regulatory considerations.
