Sterile Tank Vent Filters Remove Submicron Contaminants to Reduce Batch Contamination, Spoilage and Product Loss of Stored Materials   

MicroPure Filtration Sterile Tank Vent Filters provide effective sterile submicron filtration to maintain safe, balanced pressure during the filling or emptying of storage vessels, thus reducing batch contamination, spoilage, and product loss. Protecting stored material from submicron particle contamination and bacterial transfer or growth ensures maximum product yield by eliminating product loss. A patented segmented filtration design offers unique advantages over conventional cartridges. PTFE membranes with absolute rated micron retention are sandwiched between perforated 304 stainless steel segments within a 304 stainless steel housing. The independently functioning modular segments are clamped together by a stainless-steel retention rod that provides continues support upstream and downstream of the filter membrane. Application specifics determine the cartridge length and diameter. Micropure Tank Vents are designed for Bi-Directional air flow and filtration. MicroPure Filtration Tank Vent Filters are ideal for bulk storage within the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, and wherever contamination of bulk products is a concern.

Unlike conventional pleated cartridges that degrade with each sterilization, MicroPure filters can be steam sterilized in place 150 times with no loss of filtering effectiveness (validated by an internationally recognized food laboratory). Other sterilization or cleaning methods commonly used are autoclave, hydrogen peroxide or various sanitizing agents. When membrane replacement becomes necessary, only the small membrane media are replaced, yielding considerable operational and disposal cost savings. In addition to the low cost of ownership, MicroPure Filtration Tank Vent Filters allow a quick return on investment.

Since only the media is replaced, the cost to do so is considerably less than with traditional cartridge media. This unique design features bi-directional flow capability to ensure consistent, uncompromised security in all applications. Segmented design allows element height to be built to application demands. Elements are available in 4 diameters providing compact filtration solutions: multiple micron sizes available. Due to the porosity of the double PTFE membrane, MicroPure Tank Vent Filters permit higher flow rates than conventional filters, while maintaining submicron bacterial retention efficiency.

The patented segmented construction of MicroPure filters allows the exchange of media to meet requirements, inspect elements or to replace elements as needed. Multiple connections size and type available for each filter.

Unit is compressed and held together with compression spring. The element stack is held secure by threaded rod and nuts on both ends. Filter capacity growth can be achieved by adding more support discs and filter media to the element. Multiple sizes fit into the same housing, so growth can be achieved without buying a new housing.
