Today’s further improved version '''Dr. Perl junior System filter plus''' is the best-selling 9mm activated carbon filter worldwide. VAUEN annually sells approximately 150 million filters, a notable addition to the pipe business. Since 1968 most VAUEN pipe models have been equipped with the Conex system. A conical shaped end of the filter chamber in the mouthpiece ensures an exact seat of the filter and hinders the smoke from passing by the filter. However, there are at least some VAUEN pipes made after 1968 that do not include the Conex system. Meanwhile, several other pipemakers have adopted the Conex for their filter pipes, notably [[Stanwell]], [[Bjarne]] and, in part, [[Brebbia]]. | Today’s further improved version '''Dr. Perl junior System filter plus''' is the best-selling 9mm activated carbon filter worldwide.
