NEW – Millipore Opticap XL 4 Capsule Filter, Durapore 0.22 µm, 1-1/2″ Sanitary Flange, KVGLA04TT3 (Box of 3)

Millipore Opticap XL 4 Capsule Filter, Durapore 0.22 µm, 1-1/2″ Sanitary Flange (KVGLA04TT3), Box of 3

New, factory-sealed boxes of Millipore (MilliporeSigma) Opticap XL 4 capsule filters with Durapore 0.22 µm hydrophilic PVDF membrane. Each box contains 3 capsules and a Certificate of Quality. These are sterilizing-grade capsules for bioprocess bioburden reduction and sterile filtration of buffers, media and aqueous solutions. 3 boxes available; price is per box of 3.

Durapore Low-Binding PVDF Membrane

The hydrophilic PVDF membrane has very low protein binding and low extractables, which suits protein solutions, buffers and final product filtration. It retains a minimum Brevundimonas diminuta challenge of 1 x 10⁷ CFU/cm² per ASTM F838.

Ready for Sanitary Process Lines

1-1/2″ sanitary (tri-clamp) flanges on the inlet and outlet connect directly to standard sanitary tubing and manifolds. The polypropylene capsule is self-contained and disposable, with no housing to clean or validate. It can be autoclaved up to three 60-minute cycles at 126°C.
