Vacuubrand® BVC Basic Fluid Aspiration Systems

Vacuubrand® BVC Basic Fluid Aspiration Systems are a reliable, electricity-free solution for safe and efficient aspiration of biological and chemical liquids in laboratory environments. Designed to connect to an existing external vacuum source, such as a diaphragm pump or centralized vacuum network, this system ensures consistent performance while protecting both the user and the vacuum supply.

A chemical-resistant mechanical vacuum regulator with an integrated check valve automatically maintains an optimal operating vacuum. The regulator opens only when needed, minimizing gas load on the vacuum source and reducing evaporation of collected liquids.

The system features an autoclavable collection bottle engineered to limit aerosol and foam formation, supporting safe handling of sensitive samples. A hydrophobic 0.2 uM sterilizable filter significantly reduces contamination risks to downstream vacuum components and can be autoclaved together with the collection bottle as a complete unit.

For added safety and comfort, the included VacuuHandControl (VHCpro) aspiration handset features a flow-through suction tube design that prevents contamination of the handle by aspirated media. A stable base design ensures secure positioning during operation without the need for electrical power.

The BVC Basic is available in two configurations:

• BVC Basic G with a 2 L coated borosilicate glass bottle
• BVC Basic with a 4 L polypropylene (PP) bottle

Main Attributes

• Mechanical vacuum regulator with integrated check valve for optimal vacuum control
• Electricity-free operation with stable base for convenient lab use
• Autoclavable collection bottle designed to reduce aerosol and foam formation
• Hydrophobic 0.2 uM sterilizable filter to protect the vacuum system
• Flow-through aspiration handset prevents handle contamination
