<strong>Sterilizing</strong>-<strong>grade</strong><br />
Durapore ® <strong>0.22</strong> <strong>µm</strong><br />
<strong>Hydrophobic</strong> <strong>Filters</strong><br />
DAT A SHEET<br />
Ideal for particle and<br />
microorganism removal<br />
Excellent resistance to<br />
thermal and hydraulic stress<br />
Validated to withstand multiple<br />
sterilization cycles<br />
Scalable — from bench-top<br />
to full-scale production<br />
Wide selection of<br />
configurations to meet<br />
your process needs<br />
Reliable filters for the sterile filtration<br />
of gases and liquids<br />
Durapore hydrophobic membrane cartridges and capsules are sterilizing-<strong>grade</strong><br />
filters that provide sterility assurance, high flow rates and high throughput. They<br />
are used for sterile tank and gas venting, as well as for the filtration of liquids in<br />
small and large volume systems. Durapore <strong>0.22</strong> <strong>µm</strong> hydrophobic polyvinylidene<br />
fluoride (PVDF) membrane reliably eliminates contaminants and microorganisms<br />
in sterilizing applications, even at high pH.<br />
Broad Chemical Compatibility,<br />
Low Extractables<br />
Contributing to clean manufacturing<br />
processes, Durapore filters are made<br />
of just two materials—PVDF membrane<br />
and polypropylene support structure<br />
—this ensures broad chemical<br />
compatibility and low gravimetric<br />
extractables.<br />
Regulatory Compliance<br />
<strong>Filters</strong> with hydrophobic Durapore<br />
<strong>0.22</strong> <strong>µm</strong> membrane are designed,<br />
developed, and manufactured in<br />
accordance with a Quality Management<br />
System approved by an accredited<br />
registering body to an ISO ® 9000<br />
Quality Systems Standard and are<br />
shipped with a Certificate of Quality.<br />
Each Opticap ® XL capsule and<br />
Durapore cartridge filter is integrity<br />
tested during manufacturing and is<br />
supported with a comprehensive<br />
Validation Guide for compliance<br />
with regulatory requirements.<br />
For traceability and easy identification,<br />
each filter is labeled with the<br />
product name and identifying<br />
characteristics.<br />
Multiple Formats Available<br />
<strong>Sterilizing</strong>-<strong>grade</strong> hydrophobic<br />
Durapore membranes are available<br />
in three formats and multiple configurations<br />
that vary by filtration surface<br />
area and type of inlet/outlet<br />
connection.<br />

Opticap XL Disposable Capsule <strong>Filters</strong><br />
Opticap XL <strong>Filters</strong><br />
Opticap XL disposable capsule filters<br />
with hydrophobic Durapore membrane<br />
are available in multiple filtration<br />
areas, providing an optimal choice for<br />
every application. Each Opticap XL<br />
capsule is integrity tested during the<br />
manufacturing process. The Opticap<br />
XL capsule patented design allows<br />
unparalleled thermal and hydraulic<br />
stress resistance in a disposable filter,<br />
resulting in reliability, high confidence<br />
in the sterility process, and improved<br />
cleanliness. The unique capsule<br />
design with pleated hydrophobic<br />
Durapore membrane minimizes hold-up<br />
volume and reduces production losses.<br />
Convenient and Easy to Use<br />
Opticap XL capsule filters eliminate the<br />
time and expense associated with<br />
assembling, cleaning, and validating<br />
stainless steel housings. Adjustable,<br />
easy-to-turn<br />
upstream vents<br />
and drain valves<br />
with O-ring seals<br />
allow easy process<br />
control. Other easeof-use<br />
features include flow direction<br />
arrows and ribbed housing for easy<br />
gripping, even with gloved-hands.<br />
The Right Size<br />
A wide range of filtration areas is<br />
available to fit all of your application<br />
needs, and to allow easy scale-up of<br />
your small volume filtration steps to<br />
larger, full-scale filtration processes.<br />
The Right Connections<br />
Self-contained, disposable Opticap XL<br />
capsule filters are supplied with a<br />
choice of inlet and outlet connections<br />
to optimize your filtration process.<br />
Connections include hose barb,<br />
fractional sanitary flange, and<br />
sanitary flange, which provide the<br />
highest flow rate.<br />

Optiseal Cartridge <strong>Filters</strong><br />
Cartridge <strong>Filters</strong><br />
Optiseal <strong>Filters</strong><br />
Featuring a unique cartridge-to-housing<br />
sealing mechanism and pleated membrane<br />
configuration, these Durapore<br />
<strong>0.22</strong> <strong>µm</strong> hydrophobic cartridges offer<br />
maximum sterility assurance. Each<br />
cartridge filter is integrity tested during<br />
the manufacturing process.<br />
Cartridge <strong>Filters</strong><br />
<strong>Hydrophobic</strong> Durapore cartridge filters<br />
provide high throughput and minimal<br />
differential pressure. Cartridges are<br />
robust, resilient, and designed to<br />
withstand multiple steam-in-place<br />
cycles. Each cartridge filter is integrity<br />
tested during the manufacturing<br />
process.<br />
Durapore cartridge filters are<br />
available in five cartridge lengths,<br />
from five to thirty inches, and provide<br />
a full range of filtration areas to suit<br />
every size system. Three connection<br />
options are offered for easy adaptation<br />
to existing housings.<br />
