AcroPak 1000 Capsules w/ Supor Membrane - 0.8/0.45um, Gamma-Irradiated , 1/Pk SKU: 12994

Supor (PES) Capsule Filters - 12994

The asymmetric pore structure of Supor PES membranes captures contaminants at the surface while maintaining open channels beneath, delivering high flow rates and dirt-holding capacity. The Supor PES membrane's asymmetric pore architecture delivers industry-leading flow rates and throughput capacity in a validated sterilizing-grade format backed by comprehensive pharmaceutical documentation packages. Because of this, 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

An integrated prefilter layer upstream of the final membrane captures coarse particulates before they reach the sterilizing-grade surface, extending capsule throughput and service life.
Supor capsule devices are constructed from materials with documented biocompatibility and low extractable characteristics suitable for pharmaceutical manufacturing processes.
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 exhibits broad compatibility with aqueous buffers, aliphatic alcohols, and glycols across pH 1-14, supporting diverse pharmaceutical processing applications within a single membrane platform.
Supor PES capsules are backed by comprehensive validation documentation including extractable profiles and bacterial challenge test data from the manufacturer.

Key Capsule Construction Features

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.
Thermally fused polypropylene construction eliminates adhesives, binders, and O-rings from the fluid path, reducing extractable contamination and simplifying material qualification.
Polypropylene housing materials provide documented biocompatibility and low extractable profiles, supporting integration into pharmaceutical and food-processing filtration applications.

When your filtration protocol calls for a validated, integrity-testable barrier that arrives ready to connect and begins filtering immediately, the capsule format delivers that capability without the overhead of traditional filter assemblies. 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

Supplied non-sterile, the polypropylene housing supports autoclave sterilization at 121 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes when aseptic filtration is required by the application protocol.
