Air, Gas and Vent Service in Critical High-temperature Applications
Pall Emflon CPFR High-temperature filters have been developed from the long-life and high-strength Emflon PFR filter range. They have been designed and liquid-validated as sterilizing filters for air, gas and vent service in critical high-temperature applications in the BioPharmaceutical and bioprocess industry, like fermentation inlet air, aseptic packaging, or hot WFI tank vents.
The oxidation-resistant components typically allow extended use in air up to 80 °C (176 °F) and for shorter periods up to 120 °C (248 °F). The high-strength cartridges can also withstand high differential pressures in forward or reverse direction during multiple steam-in-place sterilization cycles. The filters incorporate a double-layer (0.2 µm) of inherently hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane, manufactured by Pall. Emflon CPFR filters are identified by their unique colored oxidation resistant components and the easy-to-read laser-etched part number and serial number.
Features and Benefits
- Validated in accordance with: Brevundimonas diminuta in liquid at 107 per cm2 according to modified ASTM Standard Test Method F383-83 and FDA Guidelines on Sterile Drug Products Produced by Aseptic Processing (1987).
- High validation standards ensure the highest removal efficiency and safety margins even in pro¬cesses with high temperatures, humid conditions and variable bioburden.
- Correlation of challenge test data with: Forward Flow Test and Water Intrusion Test.
- Allows a safe, easy and fast confirmation of filter integrity for assurance of sterile filtration in critical applications.
- Lot tests for multi-cycle autoclave challenges
- Repeated steamability in situ and robust construction optimized for air, gas and vent service with enhanced life at high temperatures
