PPS Cartridge Filters Double Layered PES Membrane Dimensions Length Outside Diameter Filtration Area Integrity Test Specifications Per 10-in. length, water wetted membrane Pharmaceutical grade polyethersulfone PPS Filter Cartridges are sterilizing grade cartridges. The polyethersulfone (PES) membrane used in these cartridges is optimized for retention and is double layered for extra security. Polyethersulfone cartridges see broad service in sterile fill applications in SVPs and biological products. Polyethersulfone is particularly suited for the filtration of products whose constituents, such as preservatives and proteins, can adsorb to the media. The low binding characteristics of polyethersulfone make it a good choice for filtration of ophthalmics and valuable protein solutions such as vaccines and other biologicals. PPS Membrane Filter Cartridges are 100% integrity tested.

Quality Assurance and Standards Critical Process Filtration filters are designed for use in cGMPcompliant processes. Our state of the art manufacturing facility and quality management system both meet ISO 9001:2008 standards. Each operation from assembly and test to cleaning, drying, and packaging is done in appropriately rated clean rooms. Each filter is assigned a lot code to ensure the traceability of manufacturing data and materials. A sophisticated MRP system collects and processes real time data from manufacturing centers and inspection points. This allows variable and attribute data to...
