Product Description

Product Description

GPFBP series filter are made of PTFE membrane, featuring special treatment and super hydrophobicity, as well as excellent resistance to organic and inorganic chemical corrosion. Its intrinsic hydrophobicity making it suitable for sterilization and filtration of strong solvents, strong corrosive liquids and strong oxidative liquids.

Quality:
· 100% Integrity testing in manufacturing
· Each filter is fully traceable with unique serial number
· Manufactured in a facility which adheres to ISO 9001:2015 Practices

Features

· Though the filter membrane is intrinsically hydrophobic, it is further processed and ultra hydrophobic, ensuring absolute sterilization under dry or wet conditions.
· Exceptionally high flow rates with low pressure drops
· Adopting temperature-resistant PP thickened core with superior temperature and pressure resistance.
· High temperature resistant, with options for in-line, autoclave repeated steam sterilization.
· The filter is 100% integrity tested before delivery and can be tested during use to ensure the integrity of the filter and the effect of bacteria removal.
