Non-pyrogenic per USP guidelines and using the LAL procedures. Applications • WFI • Aseptic Processing • Serums • Drugs • Biologicals • Chemicals • Tank Ventilation Polyethersulfone cartridges are designed to be used as a sterilizing grade cartridges for the pharmaceutical industry. MicroVantage PES P-Grade cartridges are double layered for 100% bacterial retention and integrity. PES is low protein binding and has excellent flow rates. It is particularly suited for the filtration of vaccines, biologicals and sterile fill application in SVP’s and biological products. It is also well suited for the filtration of products whose constituents, such as preservatives, can absorb to the media. PES NYLON POLY Nylon cartridges are designed to be used as sterilizing grade cartridges for the pharmaceutical industry. The higher quality nylon membrane utilized in these cartridges is optimized for the retention so that it need not be double layered . They see broad service in sterile fill applications in SVP’s and as bio burden management filters in LVP’s. Media and service liquid filtration are other common applications for this cartridge. Polypropylene membrane cartridges are single layered and designed for use in the filtration of aggressive solvents, and as compressed gas and vent filters. Each cartridge is diffusion tested using 60/40 IPA and water. (Hydrophobic membrane) Air flow: 0.1 = (20 SCFM/psid/10 inch cartridge length) 0.2 = (30 SCFM/psid/10 inch cartridge length) • •
