Description
Polygard®-CN products are nominally rated filters designed for particle removal applications in liquids and gases. The pleated structure of Polygard-CN filter media minimizes pressure differentials during the filtration process, and the all-polypropylene construction of these filters conveys low levels of extractables and broad chemical compatibility. Downstream filter performance is enhanced due to efficient particle and microorganism reduction.
Opticap XL capsule filters eliminate the time and expense associated with assembling, cleaning, and validating stainless steel housings. The capsule patented design allows unparalleled thermal and hydraulic stress resistance, resulting in reliability, high confidence in the sterility process and improved cleanliness. The unique capsule design with pleated Polygard-CN media minimizes hold-up volume and reduces production losses.
Regulatory Compliance
Polygard-CN filters are designed, developed, and manufactured in accordance with a Quality Management System approved by an accredited registering body to an ISO® 9000 Quality Systems Standard and are shipped with a Certificate of Quality. Each Opticap™ XL capsule filter is supported by a Validation Guide for compliance with regulatory requirements.
For traceability and easy identification, each filter is marked with identifying characteristics.
Multiple Formats Available
A range of filter sizes is available to fit all of your application needs, and to allow easy scale-up of your small volume filtration steps to larger, full-scale filtration processes.
Opticap XL capsule filters are supplied with a choice of inlet and outlet connections to optimize your filtration process.
