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
- Compatible with external vacuum pumps or centralized vacuum networks
- Available with polypropylene or coated glass collection bottles

Vacuubrand® BVC Control Fluid Aspiration Systems
Vacuubrand® BVC Control Fluid Aspiration Systems are a powerful, compact solution for efficient and precise aspiration of supernatants in laboratory environments. Engineered for reliability and ease of use, this system features a chemically resistant diaphragm vacuum pump designed for universal, economical operation and long service life.
Suction power is electronically adjustable via an intuitive touch panel, allowing users to precisely control vacuum levels for both strong and delicate aspiration tasks. This results in sensitive, reproducible operation across a wide range of applications. The system automatically turns the vacuum pump on and off as needed, further reducing noise levels and conserving energy.
The autoclavable collection bottle is designed to minimize aerosol and foam formation, supporting safe sample handling. A hydrophobic 0.2 uM protection filter helps prevent contamination of the vacuum pump and downstream components. Autoclavable quick-couplings are available as an accessory for added flexibility.
Designed for shared laboratory environments, the BVC Control is ready to accept a second aspiration hand controller (VHCpro), enabling simultaneous use by two operators. Its compact, space-saving design and quiet operation make it ideal for benchtop use directly at the workplace. Smooth surfaces allow for easy and efficient cleaning.
The BVC Control is available in two configurations:
- BVC Control G with a 2 L coated borosilicate glass bottle
- BVC Control with a 4 L polypropylene (PP) bottle
Main Attributes
- Powerful, long-lasting chemistry diaphragm vacuum pump
- Electronically adjustable suction power via touch panel
- Quiet, compact, and space-saving benchtop design
- Automatic pump on/off operation for reduced noise
- Autoclavable collection bottle to reduce aerosol and foam formation
- Hydrophobic 0.2 uM protection filter to reduce contamination risk
- Supports connection of a second VHCpro aspiration controller
- Available with coated glass or polypropylene collection bottles
- Smooth surfaces for easy cleaning and maintenance

Vacuubrand® BVC Professional Fluid Aspiration Systems
Vacuubrand® BVC Professional Fluid Aspiration Systems are designed for the safe, efficient aspiration and disposal of biological and biohazardous liquids in professional laboratory environments. Built on the proven advantages of BVC control technology, this system delivers exceptional safety, reliability, and ease of use while supporting demanding lab safety protocols.
A non-contact electronic liquid level sensor continuously monitors the collection bottle and automatically prevents overfilling, protecting both the user and the instrumentation. For enhanced biosafety, the integrated disinfection routine draws disinfectant through the aspiration hand set and tubing after the pump is switched off, reducing the risk of contamination and supporting strict hygiene workflows.
The BVC Professional is engineered for laboratories working with biological fluids, including biohazardous materials.
The BVC Professional is available in two configurations:
- BVC Professional G with a 2 L coated borosilicate glass bottle
- BVC Professional with a 4 L polypropylene (PP) bottle
Key design features, such as optional self-closing quick couplings (for BVC Professional G models), ensure secure handling, making the system ideal for clinical, research, and biotechnology labs that require both performance and compliance.
Main Attributes
- All the proven advantages of BVC control technology
- Non-contact sensor for electronic liquid level monitoring
- Automatic overfill protection for enhanced safety
- Integrated disinfection routine for aspiration tubing
- Self-closing quick couplings for safe and convenient bottle changes
- Designed for professional laboratories and biohazard applications
- Supports compliance with stringent safety and disinfection protocols
