SMT filters provide safe, reliable and efficient bioburden control and sterilization of oxidizing, corrosive and aggresive liquids 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.
SMT filters are available in a wide range of scalable, cartridgese mini cartridges and capsules, that allow for fast and easy scale-up of your production. From laboratory-scale filters to
production-scale assemblies, all filters incorporate the same media and identical materials of construction, eliminating the need to requalify filter units as processes are scaled up.
Compatability
SMT filters are completely made from polypropylene hardware utilizing thermal welding techniques to seal all the components thus optimizing device integrity, 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 construction guarantees a small extractable footprint.
