Description
General description
Pre-weighed and prewashed, these ready-to-use (RTU) Whatman Glass Microfiber Filter Papers are the time-saving version of Cytiva′s 934-AH glass microfiber filter papers. Use for total suspended solids analysis, dissolved solids and volatiles.
Our Whatman glass microfiber filter papers in grade 934-AH RTU have been pre-washed, dried (or ignited), cooled, desiccated and weighed, which eliminates the pre-treating steps that are otherwise required by the US EPA Laboratory Standard Method 2540 parts C, D, and E. These glass microfiber filter papers have fine particle retention of 1.5 µm at high flow rates to process heavy, turbid samples.
The pre-weighed glass microfiber filter papers are packaged with a barcoded aluminium pan noting the filter paper weight. The barcode from this pan can be used to find documentation of the filter weight on the Cytiva website. Each box of 934-AH RTU filter papers also has a barcode that can be used to download the weights of all filter papers from that box.
Application
Whatman 934-AH ready to use (RTU) glass microfiber filter papers are widely used for dissolved, suspended and volatiles solid analysis. They are also used for a wide range of industrial and environmental water monitoring applications including the monitoring of rivers, lakes and coastal waters, as well as analyzing purified discharge of wastewater treatment plants and monitoring discharge water from industrial plants.
