PTFE filter cartridge SMT-G

for gasfinesterilization

SMT-G filters provide safe, reliable and efficient bioburden control and sterilization of compressed air, nitrogen and other gases used in Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical and Chemical industries. The filters effectively retain particles and micro-organisms through a single layer asymmetric, hydrophobic PTFE membrane, fully validated for bacterial retention. The filter media with support layers is integrated into a robust cage or housing making it suitable for nearly all operation, service and cleaning conditions. The product complies with food contact regulation 21 CFR §177 - 182 and (EC) No 1935/2004 and subsequent amendments. It also meets criteria of USP Biological Reactivity Test for class VI-121°C plastics. Compatability SMT-G filter hardware is made from polypropylene with SS304 cores, utilizing thermal welding techniques to seal all the components thus optimizing device integrity, thus assuring a broad chemical compatibility with a large number of solvents, acids and bases. Polypropylene is a highly chemically resistant material, enabling the filters to be chemically regenerated. The all polypropylene and SS304 construction guarantees a small extractable footprint. Key Features Hydrophobic PTFE membrane, integrity testable • 100% removal of particles ≥ 0.01 μm • Validated bacteria retention • No surfactants or binders Applications Thanks to its chemical compatibility SMT-G filters are widely used in Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Cosmetics and Chemical Industries. • Retention of particles and micro-organisms in compressed air & gases • Bioburden control and sterilization • Sterile venting of tanks • Fermentation tank in and off gas filtration
