Description
Oil mist filter OME 10/16 with DN 16 KF connection is a vacuum-system accessory for capturing oil mist at the exhaust of oil-sealed pumps used in laboratory and process environments. The OME 10/16 design is matched to DN 16 KF flanges, enabling straightforward integration on compatible pump outlets and vacuum lines. Supplied as one piece, the filter helps retain oil aerosols that would otherwise leave the pump exhaust, supporting cleaner exhaust air and reduced oil carry-over around the work area. This oil mist filter comes from manufacturer WELCH and is intended for routine use with laboratory vacuum pumps that employ KF small-flange connections of this size. Typical settings include analytical labs, sample preparation, and general vacuum applications where oil-lubricated pumps are operated continuously or intermittently. Selecting a dedicated mist filter of the correct flange size simplifies maintenance planning and helps keep exhaust paths free of excess oil mist during everyday pump operation.

Questions about Oil Mist Filter OME 10/16, DN 16 KF
What is this article?
Oil Mist Filter OME 10/16, DN 16 KF is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes WELCH for laboratory use. It sits in Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A hose connector or adapter joins two lines, or steps one bore down to another. The barb diameter has to match the tube, and the thread has to match the stopcock or the bottle. Most leaks are a mismatch here, not a hole in the tube.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
