Why it is specified

The element is the specification; the housing is the frame around it. Stocked against the housings we sell, with the micron rating, the efficiency basis and the seal type on the line rather than in a footnote.

Typical applications

  • Final filtration before filling
  • Pre-filtration ahead of membranes
  • Process water polishing
  • Solvent clarification

Options and executions

  • Alternative end cap adaptors
  • Batch traceability documents
  • Double length elements
  • Rinsed and tested for low extractables
