AquaPrep GroundWaterSampling Capsules & Devices - 0.45um, Supor Membrane, 1/Pk SKU: 12175

Supor (PES) Capsule Filters - 12175

Designed for groundwater monitoring, surface water analysis, and environmental compliance sampling, these capsule devices process the large sample volumes that regulatory methods require. Building on this foundation, high-volume flow path geometry within the sampling capsule accommodates the large water volumes required by regulatory monitoring methods, sustaining flow rates across extended sample collection periods. In practice, the outcome is higher operational throughput with lower contamination risk, as disposable capsule devices remove the reprocessing steps that introduce variability into reusable filter systems.

Key Supor (PES) Membrane Characteristics

Non-sterile capsules support autoclave sterilization where the membrane and housing materials permit, allowing users to prepare devices according to their own validated sterilization protocols.
The Supor membrane platform provides consistent filtration performance across capsule formats from laboratory-scale evaluation devices through production-scale large-volume capsules.
Supor PES membrane technology achieves the lowest protein binding levels in the polyethersulfone category, preserving biologics through the filtration process with minimal adsorptive losses.
Rated for operating pressures up to 75 psi, the capsule housing withstands the system pressures encountered in peristaltic pump, pressure vessel, and gravity-feed filtration configurations.
Maximum operating temperature of 60 degrees Celsius supports filtration of warm solutions and accommodates the thermal conditions present in process environments.

Key Capsule Construction Features

The sealed polypropylene housing is individually integrity-tested during manufacturing, verifying membrane installation and housing seal quality before the device leaves the production facility.
Polypropylene capsule housing supports autoclave sterilization at 121 degrees Celsius and withstands gamma irradiation exposure, accommodating both user-sterilized and factory-sterilized device configurations.
Polypropylene capsule housing provides broad chemical compatibility from pH 1 to 14, resisting the acids, bases, and process chemicals that degrade alternative housing materials.
Polypropylene housing materials provide documented biocompatibility and low extractable profiles, supporting integration into pharmaceutical and food-processing filtration applications.

As single-use filtration continues to replace reusable housings across pharmaceutical and laboratory environments, your capsule filter selection determines both the quality of the filtrate and the efficiency of the workflow. Meeting this challenge, if your monitoring program requires high-volume water collection at remote field sites, environmental sampling capsules provide the flow capacity and physical durability your regulatory methods demand. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.

Sterilization Guidance

Non-sterile delivery accommodates applications where sterility is not required, while the all-polypropylene construction provides the option for autoclave sterilization when aseptic processing is specified.
