AcroPak 1000 Capsules w/ Supor Membrane - 0.8/0.2um, Gamma-Irradiated , 1/Pk SKU: 12992

Supor (PES) Capsule Filters - 12992

Backed by comprehensive manufacturer validation data, Supor PES capsule filters support the documentation requirements of pharmaceutical and biotechnology production environments. Manufactured to exacting specifications, Supor membrane technology within the capsule housing achieves ultra-low protein adsorption levels that preserve biologics throughout sterile filtration, supported by drug master file registrations and extensive biocompatibility data. By design, the result is a filtration process that eliminates cleaning validation, reduces changeover time, and provides batch-to-batch consistency through factory-tested, integrity-verified devices.

Key Supor (PES) Membrane Characteristics

Rated for operating pressures up to 60 psi, the capsule housing withstands the system pressures encountered in peristaltic pump, pressure vessel, and gravity-feed filtration configurations.
Supor PES capsules are backed by comprehensive validation documentation including extractable profiles and bacterial challenge test data from the manufacturer.
Supor PES membrane technology achieves the lowest protein binding levels in the polyethersulfone category, preserving biologics through the filtration process with minimal adsorptive losses.
The prefilter-final filter combination within a single capsule housing provides graduated retention that extends device life when processing biological fluids with variable particulate loads.
The Supor membrane platform provides consistent filtration performance across capsule formats from laboratory-scale evaluation devices through production-scale large-volume capsules.

Key Capsule Construction Features

Polypropylene capsule housing provides broad chemical compatibility from pH 1 to 14, resisting the acids, bases, and process chemicals that degrade alternative housing materials.
Single-use polypropylene capsule construction eliminates cleaning validation requirements, reducing the regulatory burden and turnaround time associated with reusable stainless steel filter housings.
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.

Whether your process requires sterilizing-grade retention for a 500-milliliter bench trial or clarification capacity for a 100-liter production batch, the right capsule filter configuration eliminates the compromises between throughput, retention, and operational simplicity. For biopharmaceutical manufacturing where retention validation and product recovery are equally critical, Supor membrane technology delivers the documented performance and ultra-low binding your process demands. 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

Standard autoclave cycles at 121 degrees Celsius are compatible with the polypropylene housing and membrane assembly, allowing preparation for sterile applications at the point of use.
