PTFE Capsule Filter - Absolute Rated Hydrophobic Membrane for Demanding Gas & Chemical Filtration

The Hydrophobic PTFE Capsule Filter features an absolute-rated Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane, offering inherent hydrophobicity and superior chemical inertness. Each cartridge is 100% integrity tested to ensure reliable sterilizing-grade performance. It maintains high gas flux even in humid conditions and is compatible with aggressive solvents, making it ideal for sterile compressed air, process gases, and chemical filtration.

APPLICATIONS

• Process Gas Sterilization: Terminal sterile filtration of compressed air, sterile nitrogen, and fermenter inlet/outlet gases.

• High-Purity System Venting: Breathers for ultra-pure water and chemical storage tanks to prevent contamination.

• Aseptic Packaging & Filling: Providing sterile overlay or protective gases for food and pharmaceutical filling lines.

• Corrosive Chemical Filtration: Precision filtration and particulate removal of strong acids, alkalis, and aggressive organic solvents.

BENEFITS OF HYDROPHOBIC PTFE CAPSULE FILTER

• Verified Absolute Retention:

Utilizes an absolute-rated PTFE membrane, with each cartridge 100% integrity tested for guaranteed sterilizing-grade performance.

• Superior Hydrophobicity & Gas Flow:

Inherently hydrophobic, it resists wetting in high humidity, maintaining exceptionally high gas flux and sterilization efficiency.

• Ultimate Chemical Compatibility:

The chemically inert PTFE material is resistant to most strong acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, enabling broad application.

• Clean & Safe Operation:

Non-fiber releasing construction ensures media purity and meets the stringent requirements of high-purity processes.
