GPVWB Cartridge Filters High Capacity Hydrophobic PVDF Membrane Tank Vents Non-Aqueous Solutions Dimensions Length Outside Diameter Integrity Test Information Representative samples from each manufacturing lot are tested for integrity to ensure consistent performance. Maximum Operating Parameters GPVWB filter cartridges are designed for general purpose use wherever a hydrophobic membrane filter is required. Manufactured with high capacity hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane, these cartridges are designed for use in the filtration of solvents, non-aqueous solutions, and as compressed gas and vent filters. The cartridge surface area, filter core design, pleat configuration, and pleat packing density have been optimized to provide increased cartridge life resulting in lower filtration operating costs.
