Description
The Optiseal housing is designed for sterile filtration of aqueous solutions and gases using Optiseal cartridge filters. All wetted metal surfaces are constructed of 316L stainless steel and are electropolished, providing excellent durability and maximum corrosion resistance.
The housing features easy-to-clean vents, drains, and connections, allowing complete sterilization. Vent-insulating rings are included for added safety.
The housing accommodates a double O-ring cartridge configuration, allowing a positive cartridge seal and preventing bacterial and particulate bypass . The Optiseal housing is designed to engage hold-down tabs on the Optiseal cartridge, which lock the cartridge in place when the housing is fully assembled.
