The Master Science Economical Vacuum Aspirator is a small, budget-minded unit for clearing media, supernatant and wash liquid. Its footprint is compact enough to sit inside a biosafety cabinet, on the bench, or on the floor next to you.
A brushless motor pulls up to 500 mbar and moves liquid at about 17 mL/s. The handle switches between manual and continuous aspiration, and a hydrophobic filter keeps aerosols and liquid away from the pump. A 2 L bottle comes as standard, with a 1 L bottle available as an option.

Key Benefits
- Fits where space is tight: The Master Science Economical Vacuum Aspirator is small enough for a safety cabinet, a crowded bench or the floor.
- Less hand strain: Continuous mode lets you aspirate without holding a trigger the whole time.
- Quiet, long-lived motor: The brushless drive runs with low noise and little wear.
- Safe waste handling: A hydrophobic filter and autoclavable liquid path keep biological waste contained.
For higher vacuum, adjustable flow and a 4 L bottle with level sensing, compare the Master Science Economical Vacuum Aspirator with our liquid vacuum aspiration system.

Lab Problems the Master Science Economical Vacuum Aspirator Addresses
Small labs often make do with pipettes or improvised traps. The Master Science Economical Vacuum Aspirator fixes the usual weak points:
- Time lost pipetting off liquid: Vacuum draw clears a plate or flask far faster than manual removal.
- Tired hands during long sessions: Continuous mode removes the need for constant trigger pressure.
- Aerosol risk: The hydrophobic filter blocks droplets from reaching the pump.
- Limited bench space: The compact body fits inside cabinets and on small benches.
