Micronic glass beads are used primarily in single pass efficiency tests when gravimetric analysis is required. The beads are generally round and smooth (as opposed to ISO Test Dust) and as such are generally considered by most filtration experts to be a non-representative sampling of contaminants from real world applications. Glass beads may be furnished in sizes generally from ten (10) microns to 120 microns. 2, record 1, English, - micronic
