| These 100% integrity-tested filter
capsules feature Supor* (hydrophilic polyethersulfone)
membranes that increase solution throughput. Housing,
vent plug, and filter support are composed of
polypropylene and are fusion-welded to eliminate the
potential for release of extractables from sealing
adhesives. Applications include large volume media
preparation and pilot scale manufacturing. May also be
used for liquids requiring prefiltration.
Use the 500 series capsules for filtration of up to
50L. Use the 1000 series capsules for filtration of up
to 100L. Use the 1500 series capsules for filtration of
up to 150L.
AcroPak 500, 1000, or 1500 capsules with Supor
0.8/0.2µm or 0.8/0.45µm membranes are ideal for larger
volume filtration uses. They have a built-in prefilter
that provides high throughputs and fast flow rates with
serum or biological solutions.
AcroPak 500 and 1000 capsule styles have a
polycarbonate filling bell. All AcroPak capsules are
sterilized by gamma irradiation. Filters can be
autoclaved once prior to use at 121 to 123°C (250 to
253°F).
