FILTER PATCH ABOUT ANYTHING

#3474887 - 12/10/04 05:01 AM (21 years, 8 months ago)

If you are tired of adding big pieces of tyvek filter UNDER jar LIDS?

Put tiny pieces on top your lids:

If you have BAGS without filter patches, ADD SOME

Want your tub-incubator to have some filtered gas exchange.

Get TYVEK (in USA - we all know where). :thumbup:

:thumbup:

Get some of this HIGH TEMP RTV SILICONE GASKET MAKER:
(will withstand PC temp?s)

Or, any equivalent HIGH TEMP brand gasket maker.

For jar lids, simply use gasket maker as glue & glue tyvek over lid holes.(allow to cure 24 hours)

For non-filter-patch autoclave BAGS, simply use paper punch & punch 9 holes in tight pattern like this:

ooo
ooo
ooo

Cut tyvek to shape & glue over holes.
(allow to cure 24 hours)

For bulk bag filter application:

Cut short piece 1.5 inch PVC pipe 6 inches long.

Squeeze out gasket maker tube content into small jar (w/air-tight lid- for later storage).

Perforate bag in tight circle pattern with paper punch.

Dip pvc pipe in gasket maker, stamp bag over holes with pipe, apply tyvek over gasket ring pipe leaves on bag. :thumbup:

:thumbup:

:tongue2:

Hey agar I did not get the part of making a filter in a plain spawnbag.
Might be the language, but can you explain so I get it?

You punch holes in the bag, then you make a line of glue ( like a perimeter) around the pattern of holes then place a cut out piece of tyvek filter material ( aka: micron filters, filter discs) over the glue.

Clothes pins. Maybe you can find something better. It's all about experimentation. That's how you learn. Think things out, it's all trial and error. And read the F.A.Q. , seriously, it has much of what you need to know.

Before PC,ing place 2 or 3 metal paper clips to hold bag lip opening shut.

Fold bag lip opening over twice & wrap 2 rubber bands around bag to hold top down.

Stream can still escape, while PC,ing.

Once PC'ed, allow to cool in PC.

Remove bag in as clean of conditions possible.

WHEN READY, remove rubber bands & paper clips.

Use any good Scotch brand 2 inch wide heavy duty CLEAR storage tape.

Use gloved finger to alc swab bag lip & tape (allow to evap for a moment).

Apply tape so half inch extends beyond bag sides & half inch above.

Take second alc swabbed strip of tape & apply facing existing tape on bag already. CREATES DOUBLE CONTACT SEAL.

ON FLAT SURFACE - SEAL FIRMLY WITH FINGER PRESSURE ALL AROUND TAPE.

FOLD TOP OVER & DOUBLE TAPE BAG CORNERS(after sealing)with 4 inch strips (2 inches on each side of bag). This keeps gussets from spreading & allowing air in

Bingo............it's sealed :eek:

:eek:

Here is how I do it:
I fold the top of the bag together a few times and then bind the 2 ends together with some masking tape.

Why do you fold and tape, rather than twisting and tieing, dime bag style?
