Can a Vycor Frit Tip be cleaned and used again?

  1. Vycor frit can be cleaned and reused by using a small blub or other suction device, forcibly pressurize the inner volume of water slightly to cause drainage out the frit.
  2. If the contamination increases over time, cleaning them is a challenging process, therefore we must replace the frit for better results. If the frit is broken, cracked, or soiled, as seen in Figure 1, it cannot be reused.
