This capsule made of two asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) membrane layers with our Advanced Pleat Technology in manufacturing LifeASSURE™ PDA Series Filter Capsule. This creates a filter with high throughput and fast flow. These filters have applications in pre-filtration and sterilizing filtration in the pharmaceutical, biological, and bioprocess industries where low protein binding is critical.

• Validated 0.2 and 0.1 µm rated membrane provides reliable sterilizing filtration
• Excellent contaminant capacity, flow rates, and life resulting from robust double-asymmetric membrane layer filter construction
• Hydrophilic asymmetric polyethersulfone membrane enables wet out in aqueous solutions for integrity testing
• Advanced Pleat Technology construction increases the useful surface area by increasing the flow paths between media pleats
• 100% forward flow Integrity tested prior to release
• Both pre-sterilized and sterilizable LifeASSURE™ PDA capsules are available
