General description

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and local Departments for Environmental Protection protocols specify filtering ground water samples with a 0.45 μm filter when analyzing dissolved or suspended metals (EPA Method 3005). Specifically designed with field sampling in mind, the Whatman Polycap Ground Water sampling capsule can be used as a convenient in-line filter unit.

Features and Benefits
  • Connects directly to outlet of a sampling pump
  • Easy to use
  • Filtration membrane is encapsulated in durable polypropylene housing
  • Also available in 1.0 μm and 5.0 μm filters, as required by US and regional EPA test methods
  • Large surface area optimized to provide at least 600 cm2 of effective filtration area to ensure rapid sample collection
  • Housing components thermally fused (no glues, adhesives, metals, epoxies or extraneous materials)
  • Suitable for filtration procedure outlined in EPA Method 3005 for ground water analysis
  • Stepped hose barb fittings allow for connection with various size tubings
  • Lot number printed on each unit for traceability

Applications: Filter ground water samples before dissolved metal analysis

Features and Benefits
