Product Details
MS - Sterile Gas SIP PTFE Capsule
Brand MasterSip
Masterfilter MasterSip MS capsule filter designed for use in sterile air and gas filtration in biopharmaceutical and other applications. Composed of a hydrophobic PTFE membrane and a polyetherimide housing, these capsule filters provide an alternative to a stainless-steel housing/filter combination and thus reduces operating costs and maintenance time. Engineered polyetherimide material allows multiple SIP (steam-in-place) cycles at high pressures and temperatures.
Features Benefits
- In situ Integrity testable by WIT
- Low investment cost compared to a standard filter and stainless-steel housing system
- Steam sterilizable with long service life
- Able to operate at high gas pressures up to 6.9 bar
Markets
- Pharmaceuticals and Biologicals
