The ÖloFine LPTA is a filter element Pleated type using a naturally hydrophobic filter media LPTA specifically designed for applications with gas and air. ÖloFine technology LPTA combines outstanding solids holding capacity with high precision in the separation of contaminating particles.

Features

  • High flow rates and low pressure drop.
  • High strength, long service life and cost-effective.
  • Have a particulate removal rating of 0.01 μm in gases and a microbial removal rating of 0.22 μm in liquids.
  • 100% integrity testable prior to release.
  • For traceability and easy identification, each cartridge is labeled with its lot number, serial number, pore size and abbreviated catalogue number.

Standard Applications

  • Sterile venting of vessels and carboys.
  • Autoclave vacuum break lines.
  • Fermentation air applications.
  • Sterile process gases.
  • Low volume sterile filtration of non-aqueous fluids.
  • Bioreactor inlet and outlet gas filtration.
