  Polyethersulfone Membrane Capsule Filters
   
 
Cellulose Nitrate Membrane Disc Filter

mdi Polyethersulfone Capsule filters are self contained, ready to use, disposable filtration devices that contain a mini cartridge filter element sealed inside a polypropylene housing. The special design assures highest packing density of the membrane per unit volume resulting in a very compact capsule offering long service life.
   
  Types Available
 
  • DPL: Single layered capsule filter for clear media, buffer filtration etc.
  • DPS: Serial filter, specially designed for filtration of difficult to filter solutions.
    These incorporate a large pore size upstream membrane layer to protect the downstream final filter.
 
  Special Features
 
  • Absolute retention
  • Low protein binding
  • Very low hold up volume
  • High flow rates
  • 100% Integrity tested
  • Total Traceability: Unique marking on each filter
 
  Applications
 
  • Sterile filtration of high value fluids like vaccine concentrates, hormones and oncology drugs
  • Scale up of new drug delivery systems
  • Aseptic additions to fermentation processes
