The Cyclone filter's unique design provides an unsurpassed combination of rapid response, minimum dead volume and high filtration efficiency. Using the proven bypass design, a large sample flow is brought to the filter so the sample transport lag time is minimized. Only that portion of the sample needed for the process analyzer passes through the filter element. In this manner, low filtration rates and rapid responses are achieved. Careful flow design causes the unfiltered portion of the sample to sweep the filter element's surface to greatly extend the element's life.
