SME filters provide safe, reliable and efficient bioburden control and sterilization of valuable liquids used in Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical and Chemical industries. The filters effectively retain particles and micro-organisms through a single layer asymmetric, hydrophilic PES membrane characterized by low extractable and protein binding. with reinforced core and end cup making it suitable for nearly all operation, service and cleaning conditions.
SME filters are available in a wide range of scalable, cartridges, 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.
Compatibility
SME filters are completely made from polypropylene hardware and support layers and PES media, utilizing thermal welding techniques to seal all the components thus optimizing device
integrity, thus 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.
