Capsule Filters

Our disposable capsule filters are available in sterile and non-sterile options; they are designed for the removal of particles or bacteria from aqueous or solvent solutions and gas streams. They are ready to use, eliminating the need to disassemble, clean and reassemble filter housings.
NOTE: We only keep a select group of capsules in stock.  If a capsule is not available for purchase please contact our sales department.   We do require a minimum of 5 units for items not in stock.
Our capsules contain no glue or surfactants and feature serial layer filter design for increased throughput and extended life. Two upstream vents are included to facilitate venting in any position. All capsules containing membrane media are pre-flushed with purified water to reduce extractables. Additionally, our capsule filters pass class VI toxicology testing and are integrity tested prior to shipment.
