Product Description

Product Description

HSGPFP series filter cartridge is made of PTFE membrane. Its support is made of polyphenylene sulphide and can resist higher temperature. It is widely used in gas sterile filtration in pharmaceutical, biological products, fermentation industry. The intrinsic hydrophobicity as well as 100% integrity testing ensure absolute sterilization.

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

· Filter membranes are intrinsically hydrophobic, ensuring absolute sterilization under dry or wet conditions
· Antioxidant components and support layer for longer service life time
· Polyphenylene sulphide support for high temperature resistance
· Option of repeated steaming sterilze in-line and autoclave
· 100% integrity test of the cartridge before delivery and can be tested during use to ensure the integrity of the cartridge and the effect of sterilization
