The Safetyspace® gap is a unique product feature of Sartorius tips. It leaves extra room for the liquid, so it never touches the filter eliminating loss of sample, reducing risk of contamination and reduction in accuracy.​

Now you can use the entire volume range of your electronic pipette in any pipetting mode.

Aerosol Barrier Filter​

Safetyspace® Filter tips are fitted with pure polyethylene filters that effectively capture solid and liquid aerosol particles. The filter is made without self-sealing additives to avoid any interference with your samples or results.


The Extra Space is Particularly Useful in the Following Applications:

  • Pipetting foaming liquids such as buffers and proteins​

Frequently Asked Questions

Self-sealing filter tips block liquid flow in case of over-pipetting but also retain your sample. Sartorius Safetyspace® Filter Tips have the unique Safetyspace® gap which leaves plenty of space between the maximum volume of the tip in reverse pipetting and the filter so you shouldn't have to worry about over-pipetting.
