Coarse upstream debris management for FluidPrep™ concentration workflows
The FluidPrep™ 100 µm Mesh Upstream Clarification Filter is a simple, single-use prefiltration tool for reducing gross debris before concentration. It helps make large-volume, debris-containing, or wastewater-impacted liquid samples more processable before CP Select™ or EasyElute™ workflows.
Use it when fibers, vegetation, grit, algae, large particulates, produce debris, or other coarse material may interfere with downstream concentration.
Main product description
Complex liquid samples often contain large debris that can slow processing, clog downstream components, or make concentration less reliable. The FluidPrep™ 100 µm Mesh Upstream Clarification Filter provides a practical first clarification step before FluidPrep™ concentration workflows.
As part of the InnovaPrep® 4C Workflow
Characterize → Condition → Clarify → Concentrate
The 100 µm Mesh Upstream Clarification Filter supports the Clarify step by removing coarse debris only when needed.
The goal is not maximum solids removal. The goal is target-aware matrix management: reduce gross debris and improve processability while preserving the biological fraction needed for downstream analysis.
Best used for
- Wastewater and wastewater-impacted waters with visible debris
- Environmental water, stormwater, canal water, and surface water samples
- Produce rinse or wash water with pulp, fibers, soil, or plant material
- Aquaculture, pond, lagoon, or recirculating water samples
- Large-volume water samples containing grit, algae, vegetation, or sediment
- Workflows where coarse debris should be removed before CP Select™ or EasyElute™ concentration
Common applications
Wastewater surveillance
Helps manage gross debris before concentration of wastewater or wastewater-impacted samples.
Environmental water monitoring
Useful for surface water, stormwater, canal water, lagoon water, and other samples containing large debris or algae.
Produce rinse and wash water
Supports removal of coarse plant material, fibers, soil clumps, or debris before concentration.
Large-volume concentration workflows
Supports processability when large-volume samples contain visible particulates that may interfere with downstream concentration.
