Gas Filters Demonstrate Exceptional Resistance to High Temperature Sterilization

Porvair Filtration Group have recently tested their top-of-the-range Fluorofil™ Plus gas sterilizing filters to ensure their compatibility with steam temperatures of 142°C in forward and reverse flow directions. The stainless steel core and PTFE membrane of Porvair's Fluorofil Plus filters results in exceptional resistance to high temperature steaming.

Porvair Filtration Group, has specifically designed Fluorofil™ Plus membrane cartridges, for use in providing sterile air and gases and solvent filtration in the pharma industry and other critical applications. Fluorofil™ Plus cartridges utilize the inherently hydrophobic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane, which provides the highest levels of biosecurity throughout the process industry. When combined with quality all-polypropylene components and high integrity manufacturing techniques, the Fluorofil™ Plus filter cartridge is ideally suited to the most demanding process conditions.

Porvair Fluorofil™ Plus cartridges are constructed in ISO accredited clean rooms under tightly controlled conditions using advanced, highly specialized machinery. Quality and consistency of product are assured ISO 9001 accredited quality control and manufacturing procedures, which are in place throughout all stages of manufacture. Fluorofil™ Plus ePTFE membrane cartridges are 100% integrity tested during manufacture by the forward flow diffusion method. Each module of every cartridge is tested to ensure integrity is not compromised by any single module in a cartridge.
