Sterlitech Nylon Capsule Filters
Nylon Capsule Filters have a unique
polyester and polypropylene construction
for enhanced reliability and usefulness.
Polyester housing and support layers
ensure and maintain capsule integrity,
while a nylon prefilter membrane layer
over a final membrane layer significantly
enhances filter life. They are suitable for a
broad range of applications, meeting
worldwide demand for functionality in
chemical, beverage, and water processing.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Naturally Hydrophilic Nylon Membrane (Absolute Rated)
- Small Disposable Capsule
- Ease of Scale-up
- Low Filter Extractables
APPLICATIONS
- Solvents
- Fine Chemicals
- Ink Jets
- Process Water
- Beverages
- Cosmetics
- Parts Cleaning
- Electronics
- Pharaceuticals
- Biologics
- Dyes
- Lacquers
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Sterlitech Nylon filter capsules are highly retentive naturally hydrophilic
Nylon membrane filters that have been specially designed for critical gas and
liquid applications. The Nylon membrane in an all-polypropylene construction
provides excellent chemical compatibility and superior flow per surface area
as compared to other membrane capsules. No adhesives, binders, or
surfactants are used in the manufacturing process and all capsules are rinsed
with high purity water to reduce extractables and downtime.
The naturally hydrophilic Nylon membrane does not require pre-wetting with
IPA and flushing with DI water thereby eliminating a potential source of
contamination and hazardous waste. In addition, the hydrophilic membrane
reduces the potential for bubble formation by not de-wetting in outgassing
fluids unlike hydrophobic filters such as polypropylene. All filter capsules are
100% integrity tested to ensure filter performance each and every time out
of the package. Sterlitech Nylon filter capsules are well suited for critical
applications where superior flow and particle removal efficiency at 0.1, 0.2,
0.45, and 0.65 micron is required.
