Laboratory suction system BVC basic

liquidsaerosolautomatic

Overview

• Mechanical vacuum controller with integrated check valve to maintain optimal working vacuum and reduce gas load on an external vacuum source
• Stable base and electricity-free operation for flexible installation
• Autoclavable collection bottle designed to minimize aerosol and foam formation; autoclavable quick‑couplings available as accessory
• VacuuHandControl (VHCpro) aspiration hand set with through‑flow suction tube to prevent handle contamination
• Hydrophobic 0.2 µm sterilizable protection filter to reduce contamination risk of the vacuum system; autoclavable together with the collection bottle

Product details
The BioChem‑VacuuCenter BVC basic is intended for connection to an existing external vacuum source (e.g., diaphragm pump or vacuum network) and requires no electrical supply. The chemical‑resistant mechanical vacuum controller ensures an optimal operating vacuum and opens only on demand, which limits the gas load on the vacuum source and minimises evaporation of collected liquids. An inlet tube integrated into the bottle head reduces aerosol and foam formation and extends the service life of the hydrophobic protection filter. The system is available as BVC basic with a 4 L polypropylene (PP) collection bottle or as BVC basic G with a 2 L coated borosilicate glass bottle.
