Description
VitraPOR® biplanar glass filter plate is a precision borosilicate 3.3 disc with a diameter of 160 mm, porosity grade 4 and a defined thickness of 9,5 mm ± 0,5 mm. Both faces are ground to deliver an exact thickness and a plane-parallel working surface, supporting reproducible filtration and separation steps in laboratory glassware assemblies. The rigid disc format suits integration into filter holders, frit supports and custom apparatus where uniform pore structure and dimensional stability matter. Manufactured by ROBU - Stereon, the plate is supplied as a single piece for straightforward stock and replacement handling. Porosity 4 provides a fine filtration grade commonly selected for clarifying liquids, retaining fine precipitates and protecting downstream equipment. Borosilicate 3.3 construction offers the chemical resistance and thermal behaviour expected of laboratory glass filter media. Use this biplanar filter plate wherever a ground, plane-parallel VitraPOR® element of 160 mm diameter and controlled 9,5 mm thickness is required for reliable day-to-day lab filtration workflows.
This article is part of Sintered glass filter plates & discs, in Filtration.

What is this article?
Filter Disc, bi-plane, 160 mm, Por. 4 Thickness 9.5 mm ± 0.5 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes ROBU - Stereon for laboratory use. It sits in Sintered glass filter plates & discs, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
A sintered glass filter is a disc of fused glass particles with a porosity grade, often 0 to 5, from coarse to fine. It is cleaned and reused. The porosity number, not a micrometre guess, is the specification. Hydrofluoric acid and strong alkali attack the glass.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
