PureFlo® PTFE mini filter cartridges are highly retentive, hydrophobic PTFE membrane filters that have been specially designed for critical applications. The PTFE membrane in an all-polypropylene construction provides excellent chemical compatibility and superior flow per surface area as compared to other membrane cartridges. No adhesives, binders, or surfactants are used in the manufacturing process. All cartridges are rinsed with high-purity, pyrogen-free water to reduce extractables and downtime.
The naturally hydrophobic PTFE membrane is ideally suited for aggressive chemicals such as acids, bases, and solvents. In addition, the hydrophobic membrane provides superior flow and pressure drop characteristics per surface area for gas filtration and tank venting applications. All filter cartridges are 100% integrity tested to ensure filter performance each and every time out of the package. We are currently offering four different length options to meet the needs of a wide variety of processes.
