Medical Masks Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) Tester


Medical Masks bacterial filtration efficiency tester also called BFE test machine is to determine the bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) of medical face mask materials by employing a ratio of the upstream bacterial challenge to downstream residual concentration of the tested medical face mask materials.

Application

This machine is suitable for metrological verification departments, scientific research institutes, mask manufacturers and other relevant departments to measure the bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) of medical face mask materials.
