Polypropylene Capsule Filters, 5.0um, 1.5" Sanitary Flange, Nonsterile, 1/Pk
GVS SKU: 1213080

Featuring a hydrophobic polypropylene depth filtration medium built into a ready-to-use disposable capsule, this unit delivers reliable removal of particles from aqueous solutions, solvent solutions, and gas streams without the need to disassemble, clean, and reassemble a filter housing. The 5.0um rated medium is configured with a 1.5 inch sanitary flange connection and ships nonsterile, packaged one per box.

Key Polypropylene Media Characteristics

• Hydrophobic polypropylene medium rated at 5.0um for removal of particles and bacteria from liquids and gases
• Serial layer filter design that increases throughput and extends usable service life under high particulate loads
• Contains no glue or surfactants, supporting clean filtrate and reduced contamination risk
• Broad chemical compatibility suited to aqueous and solvent-based samples
• Polypropylene housing construction is food compliant (FDA/EU), with final-application compliance the responsibility of the end user

Key Construction Characteristics

• Polypropylene housing with a 1.5 inch sanitary flange connection
• Two upstream vents that facilitate venting in any orientation
• Nonsterile, supplied 1 per pack in a low particulate plastic bag and individual box
• Passes class VI toxicology testing and is integrity tested prior to shipment

This disposable capsule provides dependable particle removal while maintaining sample integrity throughout the filtration process. The ready-to-use format eliminates housing handling steps, and the serial layer construction sustains flow and capacity when processing heavily loaded streams.

• Prefiltration The 5.0um medium removes coarse particulates from heavily loaded samples to protect finer downstream membranes from premature clogging.
• Particle Removal from Solvents Broad chemical compatibility allows clarification of organic and solvent-based solutions prior to analysis or processing.
• Gas Stream Filtration The hydrophobic polypropylene medium removes particles from air and gas streams in inline applications.
• Aqueous Sample Clarification Disposable, ready-to-use format clarifies aqueous solutions while reducing cross-contamination risk.
• Process Stream Protection Serial layer design sustains throughput and service life when guarding pumps, instruments, or membranes downstream.
• Bulk Sample Preparation High particulate loading capacity supports clarification of large-volume or difficult-to-filter samples.
