FPS Capsule Filters Polyethersulfone Membrane Applications Wine Process Water Clean-in-Place Solutions Aseptically Packaged Liquids Bottled Water FPS Capsules are hydrophilic and manufactured with the highest quality asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) membrane. Polyethersulfone membrane exhibits excellent flow rates with precise retention ratings. E xcellent flow rates with precise retention ratings Remove organic contaminants from wine, beer, bottled water Polyethersulfone is particularly suited for the filtration of products that contain elements that can adsorb to the media, such as flavor elements and proteins. The lower binding characteristics of PES avoid adsorption and make it a good choice for filtration of beer and wine. P rotect processes by removing organic contaminants from water, CIP solutions Low product adsorption to preserve flavor FPS Capsule Filters - Filtration Area Capsule Length Flow Rate / Filtration Area The following table represents typical water flow at a one psi (69 mbar) pressure differential across a single 2 inch capsule with 1.0 ft² (930 cm²) of media with 1/2” FNPT ports. The test fluid is water at ambient temperature. Higher pressure drops are acceptable, but as flows increase the pressure drop of the housing becomes more apparent. 0.03 μm Pore Size * For approximate flow rates for 5” through 30” capsules, refer to the appropriate cartridge data sheet Construction Materials Maximum Operating Parameters Liquid Operational Pressure Filtration Media Gases Operational Pressure Media Support Operating Temperature Center Core Outer Support Cage Sealing Method Thermal Bonding Forward Differential Pressure 50 psid (3.4 bard) at 20 °C (68 °F) Reverse Differential Pressure Recommended Changeout Pressure Food and Beverage Grade FPS capsule filters remove organic contaminants from beverages and process liquids. They are used for final filtration of wine, beer, bottled water and aseptically packaged products like juices. To protect processes, FPS capsules see service in removing organic and other contaminants from process water and clean-in-place solutions used in piping and other systems.
