PES Capsule Filters

The PoreCap® series of PES capsule filters are ready-to-use sterile grade filtration devices available in 0.1µm and 0.22µm, and different sizes as per requirements. 0.45µm is for bioburden and particulate reduction.

With our advanced PES (Polyethersulfone) Membrane, these filters guarantee optimal bacterial retention and are a go-to choice for filtration of vaccines, injectables, API buffers, water for injections, beverages and lab water purification.

Manufactured in-house in ISO Classified  cleanrooms, these devices incorporate highly efficient sterilizing grade Asymmetric Polyethersulfone Membranes safely placed inside a Polypropylene housing.

Crafted with precision & expertise, the PoreCap® PES capsule filters are easy to install & use as they eliminate the need to clean and validate the stainless-steel housing separately.

Membrane Characteristics: Each PoreCap® PES Capsule filter incorporates our high throughput hydrophilic PES membrane that offers excellent chemical compatibility and withstands a wide pH range. Available in single layer or dual layer options, these are absolute retention filters and offer excellent contaminant removal capacity.

APPLICATIONS

  • Bioburden reduction
  • Sterile filtration for Injectables, biopharmaceutical products, vaccine etc.
  • Sterile filtration of APIs, buffer solutions, opthalmic solutions, disinfectants
  • Water for injection, purified water and lab water systems
  • Filtration of Wine, Beer & other alcoholic beverages
Microbial Validation

Validated as per the ASTM F 838-05 requirements for determining bacterial retention of membrane filters used for liquid filtration

FDA Compliant
Construction raw materials meet the requirements as specified by FDA in Title 21 CFR section 177.1520
Biosafety & Extractables
Passes the biologicals tests for Class VI plastics as described in USP. Our filters are thermally bonded to seal the media (& no adhesives are used) to prevent extraction
Integrity Tested
100% integrity tested to assure reliable filtration performance (bubble point & diffusional flow values provided)
Global Manufacturing Standards
Manufacture lot compliance with cGMP requirements
Easy Identification & Tracking

Each filter unit has a unique identification marking which enables quick backtracking
