BioDoer™ PES Series polyethersulfone pleated filter cartridges provide efficient submicronic retention in the production of foods and beverages. The highly asymmetric PES membrane gives excellent permeability, contaminant capacity, and particle removal at high flow rates and low pressure drop. Excellent microbial retention with proven high LRV performance. Being hydrophilic, cartridges allow for fast and easy wetting in aqueous fluids. Cartridges are 100% integrity tested to assure optimized retention performance. Component materials comply with US FDA and EU regulations for safe use with food and potable water.
Features
Durable PES and polypropylene components
Extreme porosity highly asymmetric membrane
Excellent fluid compatibility
