The document describes the Milliflex PLUS Vacuum Pump, a high-throughput filtration system used for bioburden and water quality testing. It features automatic, hands-off filtration to reduce testing time, and a sanitary design with autoclavable pump heads. Testing showed the system with 3 pumps was faster than using a 6-place manifold. The pump offers flexibility to suit various applications and maximizes the efficiency and reliability of Milliflex filter funnel units.

All system com- ponents in contact with the sample are either autoclavable or packaged pre-sterilized to ensure the cleanest possible operation for dependable results. An automatic dry cycle removes residual liquid, so cross-contamination is eliminated. Its internal, weight- based calibration system measures and processes samples of equal vol- ume to ensure consistency. Volume is displayed on the control keypad.
