SupaPore - Model THB -Pleated Membrane Filter Cartridge
SupaPore THB Microfiltration cartridges have been designed specifically for use in a wide range of aggressive gas and liquid processing applications where a strong construction with minimal pressure drop is required. Its naturally hydrophobic expanded PTFE membrane makes this cartridge an ideal choice for systems requiring excellent compatibility, low pressure drops and high flow rates.
- A naturally hydrophobic PTFE membrane rated at 0.2µm in liquids and 0.01µm in gases
- Large diameter core for higher flow rates
- Polypropylene and stainless steel support
- Minimal fibre migration
- Wide chemical compatibility
- Validation by bacterial and aerosolised bacteriophage challenge
All cartridges are thermally bonded and adhesive free. Each unit is pre-flushed with ultra-pure water and integrity tested before final assembly.
- Can be steam sterilised
- Sanitisable
- Meet current US FDA CFR Title 21requirements
- Fully integrity testable by Water Intrusion, Bubble Point or Diffusion Flow test*1
- Modules are integrity tested during manufacture
- Suitable for most sanitisation regimes including steaming, autoclaving, hot-water flush and most common sanitising agents.
Amazon Filters manufactures a comprehensive range of filter housings for SupaPore THB cartridges including the industrial 50 and 60 Series and the 70 Series for hygienic applications. Please consult our Sales Office for further details on the full range.
