Encapsulated Filters with Polypropylene Depth Matrix for Small-Volume Prefiltration Applications
Polyflow Capsules feature a random-fiber polypropylene depth matrix that provides superior retention efficiencies. In addition, the unique calendering process produces depth media with unsurpassed dirt-holding capacity that extends the service life. Longer life leads to increased savings by requiring fewer filter change-outs.
Polyflow capsules are available in a choice of three sizes, allowing users to match the filters to the batch size and minimize the hold-up volume. Cost savings result from the reduction of lost product, and by scaling the process properly to avoid wasting excess filter capacity.
The encapsulated design maximizes efficiency by providing faster, easier change-out without laborious cleaning procedures. Eliminating the need to open reusable housings for cartridge replacement minimizes the chance of introducing contamination into the process, and promotes safety by reducing the risk of exposure to potentially hazardous fluids.
Benefits • High flow rate reduces processing time
• Long service life minimizes change out frequency
• Broad chemical compatibility allows use in most applications
• High retention efficiency provides excellent protection for down stream filters
• Non-pyrogenic (per LAL test) for use in critical applications
• Custom ordering option allows different inlet/outlet fittings for specific needs
Filtration Efficiency 1.2, 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 micron are 99.9% efficient at the stipulated pore size.
The 0.6 micron capsule offers typical retention efficiency of up to 97-99%.
