Filter Stage Inserts

Filter and membrane samples, which are often used for filter residue analysis, must be mounted firmly and flat into the SEM system for correct analysis. As filters and membranes are often delicate materials, mounting these samples without the use of an insert can lead to folding and damage. The use of traditional, often highly sticky, carbon tape prevents the sample from being re-used for future analysis. By using the filter inserts with the Phenom XL, mounting and replacing filter samples can be done easily.
