Process Filters Cartridges - PES Pleated Membrane

FilterPES is a high-performance membrane filtration solution designed for sterilisation and microbiological stabilisation in pharmaceutical, biological, chemical, and beverage applications. Its pleated polyethersulphone membrane combines excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance with an asymmetrical structure that maximises filtration area, helping to extend service life and operating efficiency. With filtration ratings from 0.1 to 1.2 μm and absolute retention above 99.98%, FilterPES delivers reliable contaminant removal while preserving the quality, aroma, colour, and characteristics of the filtered fluid. 

  • FilterPES cartridges use a pleated membrane made of polyethersulphone. The cartridges have high mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance. 
  • The membrane has an asymmetrical structure and a large filtration surface.These features increase operating time and service life. 
  • The cartridge is made of polyethersulphone and polypropylene.These materials are chemically inert with proteins, colloids, aromas, and colour. They do not alter the filtered fluid. 
  • Filtration rate: 0.1 μm to 1.2 μm. Use the cartridge for sterilisation and microbiological stabilisation of pharmaceutical, biological, and chemical fluids. 
  • These fluids include solvents, perfumes, mouthwashes, water, wine, beer, and other beverages. Absolute retention: > 99.98% for particles at the specified filtration rate. 

 

Quality Standards  

  1. The product is designed, developed, and manufactured to an ISO 9001‑certified quality management system. 

 

Bio-Safety Standards  

  • The product is non‑pyrogenic according to USP <85> Bacterial Endotoxins. 
  • The product passes the USP Plastic Class VI test and is non‑fiber‑releasing according to CFR21. 

 

Regulatory Compliance  

  • FilterPES complies with the requirements for food contact materials. 
  • These requirements are specified in European Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 and in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, para­graphs 170–199. 

 

Applications  

  • Final filtration of pharmaceutical liquids and gases. 
  • Final filtration of process liquids in wineries, bottled water plants, and spring water. 
  • Filtration of food and beverage products, such as juices, wine, dairy products, and water treatment. 
  • Chemical processing of acids and solvents.
