Cytiva, C3PFRP1B, Pall™ Emflon™ PFR membrane in Novasip™ capsule, 0.2 µm sterilizing grade, 2300 cm² EFA, 13 mm sanitary flange vent and drain connections with no valve

Emflon™ PFR membrane in Novasip capsules, part of our Pall filtration portfolio, offer high assurance and high integrity in air and gas sterilizing services. Filters can be steamed and tested easily to maintain cleanliness and integrity standards.
The PTFE membrane is inherently hydrophobic, chemically inert, and designed specifically for removal of contaminating bacteria and viruses
High flow rates and robust de-wetting characteristics supporting economical filtration through the use of smaller installations and reduced energy costs
Filters can be tested in situ by the forward flow integrity test or by a water intrusion test
Suitable for use in high pressure air systems up to 6.5 barg (94 psig) at temperatures up to 40°C
Supplied with a numbered disc which can be fitted easily to the capsule and used to help record the number of times the filter is sterilized
About Novasip™ capsule filters
Novasip™ filters consist of a standard design filter cartridge permanently sealed in a clear polyetherimide housing with SIP (steam-in-place) capability, making them a cost-effective alternative to stainless steel housings in many applications. Polyetherimide is an advanced plastic selected for its high-strength at elevated temperatures and pressures. Novasip™ filters are supplied with inlet/outlet connections compatible with sanitary flange fittings. Vents and drains are available with integral valves.
Validation
Emflon™ PFR filters have been widely used as air and gas-sterilizing filters in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. They have been extensively and scientifically validated using the most advanced methods and the most sensitive equipment available. They have a microbial removal rating of 0.2 µm in liquids and a particulate removal rating of 0.003 µm in gases and have been validated by:
Brevundimonas (Pseudomonas) diminuta liquid challenge at 10 7 /cm 2
Brevundimonas (Pseudomonas) diminuta aerosol challenge
PP7 and MS-2 bacteriophage aerosol challenge
Airborne sodium chloride aerosol challenge at 100 L/min flow giving a 0.003 µm rating in gases
