Housings are specifically designed to minimize sample holdup and maximize recovery.

Non-pigmented acrylic or polypropylene (PP) housings feature integral filter sealing to avoid the risk of contamination from pigments and adhesives

Each filter is clearly marked with membrane pore size

Housings have standard luer connectors; 50-mm filters feature 7 to 13.5 mm hose barb connectors

Polypropylene Membrane Capsule Filters are compact, self-contained, high throughput filter units ideal for small batch and lab scale volumes.  Can be used for point-of-use filtration or for pilot/prototype studies that can be scaled up to the same filter media in cartridge format.

The pleated depth-type matrix provides greater filtration area and a high dirt holding capacity.  Compatible with aqueous solutions and solvents. Offered in a wide range of particle size cut-offs and designed for use serially as a prefilter for process waters and chemicals.  Thermally welded media prevents fiber slough off and minimize changes in pore size during filtration.  Autoclavable (121°C, 30min.)

Advantec Capsule Filters are ISO certified.
