Durapore CBR 0.2 µm Bioburden Reduction Cartridge Filters
Superior filters for controlled low bioburden levels in biopharmaceutical fluids
Description
A trusted name in the industry for over 25 years, hydrophilic Durapore 0.2 µm polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane offers consistent and reliable performance for bioburden reduction and particle removal. Hydrophilic Durapore CBR devices are ideal for clean processes due to low extractables, broad chemical compatibility and its non-fiber releasing properties. Hydrophilic Durapore CBR 0.2 µm Bioburden Reduction filters are recommended for applications requiring bioburden reduction and small particle removal across a wide range of pharmaceutical and biological liquids and intermediate bulk pharmaceutical products. Typical applications for the Durapore CBR 0.2 µm filters include the filtration of diagnostics, diluents, bulk pharmaceutical products, serum, tissue culture media and media additives.
Regulatory Compliance
Filters with hydrophilic Durapore membrane are designed, developed, and manufactured in accordance with a Quality Management System approved by an accredited registering body to an ISO® 9000 Quality Systems Standard. A detailed Certificate of Quality is available on request. Each cartridge filter is integrity tested during manufacturing and is supported by a Validation Guide. For traceability and easy identification, each filter is labeled with the product name and identifying characteristics.
Cartridge Filters
Durapore CBR 0.2 µm hydrophilic cartridge filters provide high throughput and flow rates with minimal differential pressure. Cartridges are robust, strong, resilient and are designed to withstand multiple steam-in-place cycles. Each Durapore CBR cartridge filter is integrity tested during the manufacturing process. Code 7 and Code 0 connections are available to suit your application and housing needs.
