Polypropylene Capsule Filter, 10um, 3/8" Hose Barb, Nonsterile, 1/Pk
GVS SKU: 1213081

Featuring an all-purpose polypropylene depth medium in a ready-to-use disposable capsule, this filter removes particles and bacteria from aqueous solutions, solvents, and gas streams. The 10um polypropylene media is paired with 3/8 inch hose barb connections and a nonsterile housing, eliminating the need to disassemble, clean, and reassemble traditional filter holders. A serial layer filter design increases throughput and extends usable life, while two upstream vents facilitate venting in any position.

Key Polypropylene Media Characteristics

• Hydrophobic polypropylene media rated at a 10um pore size for broad particulate and bacterial removal
• Serial layer filter design that increases throughput and extends service life under heavy loading
• Contains no glue or surfactants, protecting sample integrity during filtration
• Media preflushed with purified water to reduce extractables
• Suited to aqueous solutions, solvents, and gas stream applications

Key Construction Characteristics

• Disposable capsule housing with 3/8 inch hose barb inlet and outlet connections
• Two upstream vents that facilitate venting in any orientation
• Nonsterile, supplied 1 per pack
• Polypropylene housings are food compliant (FDA/EU), subject to end-user verification for the final application
• Passes Class VI toxicology testing and is integrity tested prior to shipment

This capsule delivers reliable, ready-to-use filtration with consistent performance across liquid and gas streams. The absence of glue and surfactants combined with preflushed media helps maintain sample integrity and reduce extractables. Robust construction and integrity testing provide confidence in repeatable results.

• Particulate Removal The 10um polypropylene media removes larger particulates from aqueous solutions and solvents in general laboratory filtration.
• Prefiltration High-throughput depth filtration protects downstream finer membranes from premature clogging by heavily loaded samples.
• Gas and Vent Filtration The hydrophobic polypropylene media and upstream vents support particulate removal from gas streams and venting applications.
• Solvent Clarification Broadly compatible polypropylene construction clarifies organic solvents while contributing no glue or surfactants to the stream.
• Inline Process Filtration The 3/8 inch hose barb connections integrate the disposable capsule directly into inline liquid handling systems.
• Sample Preparation Ready-to-use design clarifies samples for laboratory workflows without disassembling and cleaning reusable holders.
