Product description:
The ultrateflomem® filter is a pleated PTFE
membrane filter, which offers maximum
assurance of filtration performance and
durability range against chemicals in severe
process conditions. The filter element is
manufactured exclusively by the use of
Teflon* and polypropylene. The retention ra-
te extends from 0.1 µm to 1 µm (for
gases down to 0.01 µm).
The Teflon* filter media is inherently hydro-
phobic with a highly porous membrane
structure. This ensures high flow rates and
a high absorption of particles during the
entire service life. The endcaps and the
Teflon* membrane are thermally welded
without the use of binders. This results in
an integral filter cartridge which provides
maximum durability range against chemi-
cals with minimal extractables.
Features:
All components meet the FDA requirements
for the contact with food in accordance
with the CFR (Code of Federal Regulations)
Title 21. ultrateflomem® filter elements ha-
ve passed the toxicological tests according
to USP XX Class VI for plastics. In particu-
lar, the requirements of the chemical, bio-
logical, cosmetic, electronic and the
pharmaceutical industries are fulfilled.
The ultrateflomem® filter is designed to re-
move particles, microorganisms and col-
loids from aggressive solvents, caustic li-
quids or gases. The membrane is
manufactured in accordance with the cGMP
requirements (current Good Manufactuerer
Practice), is non-fiber releasing and is ther-
mally welded without the use of binders or
other chemical additives.
Applications:
The ultrateflomem® Teflon* membrane is, among others, designed and developed for
the following applications:
For the filtration of aqueous solutions, the ultrateflomem® membrane has to be pre-
lubricated with a suitable liquid of low surface tension (e.g. IPA).
Due to the inherently hydrophobic filter media, the ultrateflomem® membrane is also
suitable for the following gases:
v Highly concentrated acids
v Bases
v Alcohols
v Chlorinated and fluorinated
solvents
v Etchants
v Esters
v Ketones
v Photolithographic liquids
v Compressed air
v Fermentation air
v Technical gases
v Tank ventilation
