HYDROPHILIC FILTER CARTRIDGE

PES filter  element   is a  sterile  grade, pleated   high   performance   Polyethersulfone   membrane filter. It provides the greatest assurance of filtration performance,  stability and  service life  for  sterile filtration and microbial  stabilization.

The   outstanding  performance  of  the filter element  is based on its state-of-the-art filtration media. The  Polyethersulfone membrane is  inherently   hydrophilic and    distinguishes   itself   by    having    an   asymmetrically designed pore structure. The  pore size steadily decreases towards  the  centre   of  the  medium  resulting  in  a  highly porous structure. This extremely durable  design maintains consistent porosity and impurity retention throughout  its service life without shedding or unloading  contaminations.
