Fluorofil™ F100

PTFE Membrane Cartridges for Solvent Filtration

Fluorofil™ F100 cartridges are manufactured using a highly hydrophobic 1 micron PTFE membrane. The enhanced PTFE membrane offers exceptionally high liquid flow rates at low pressure differentials (see graph) making Fluorofil™ F100 cartridges ideally suited to solvent filtration.

Features and Benefits

  • Guaranteed microbial ratings in a liquid challenge
    Fluorofil™ F100 cartridges are validated for particle removal in liquids by using the industry standard modified OSU F-2 single pass challenge test. The retention rating is correlated to the bubble point. Each module is individually tested to ensure it reaches the required bubble point value.
  • Flow ΔP characteristics
    The unique characteristics of the PTFE membrane, combined with the construction of the Fluorofil™ F100 filter cartridge, results in exceptionally high liquid flow rates at low pressure differentials.
  • Cartridge integrity and low TOC levels
    All Fluorofil™ F100 cartridges are integrity tested and supplied clean, having been flushed with pure water. When required they can be pulse flushed with 18MΩ.cm pyrogen-free ultra-clean water.
  • Solvents and aggressive chemicals
    The exceptional chemical resistance of PTFE allows Fluorofil™ F100 filter cartridges to be compatible with aggressive chemical solutions, including strong acids, alkalis, solvents and etchants.
