Opticap XL and XLT Disposable Capsule Filters with Millipore Express® SHF 0.2 μm Hydrophilic Membrane

Description

Millipore Express SHF (Sterile High-Flux) devices are the ultimate choice for optimal buffer filtration. A sterilizing-grade, 0.2 µm hydrophilic polyethersulfone (PES) membrane, Millipore Express SHF filters provide sterility assurance, broad chemical compatibility, and exceptionally high flow rates for buffers, cleaning agents and sanitizing solutions at the high and low range of pH, 1 – 14.

The high flow rate of the Millipore Express SHF membrane cuts your filtration time in half, dramatically improving filtration economics and extending production capacity. The membrane is caustic-compatible and offers high-flux performance with a full range of buffer chemistries. Its low extractables and non-fiber releasing properties contribute to clean processes. With Millipore Express SHF filters, you increase productivity, shorten cycle-time and reduce costs.

Opticap XL and XLT capsule filters eliminate the time and expense associated with assembling, cleaning, and validating stainless steel housings. The capsules patented design allows unparalleled thermal and hydraulic stress resistance, resulting in reliability, high confidence in the sterility process and improved cleanliness.

Superior Performance, Speed and Value

For biotech and pharmaceutical customers seeking fast, efficient and economical sterile buffer filtration, no PES membrane delivers more than Millipore Express SHF.

• Fast filtration with sterility assurance
  
• Broad chemical compatibility—even at high pH
  
• Low filtration costs—reduced up-front filter and overall filtration costs

Developed to Enhance Your Buffer Filtration

Millipore Express SHF filters use a fast flowing process membrane specifically developed for the filtration of buffers, pH adjusters and other aqueous intermediate pharmaceutical and biotech process solutions. Designed to offer high-flux performance and improved economics, Millipore Express SHF membrane is compatible with a wide range of buffer chemistries, including acids and sodium hydroxide.

Reliable Performance

Millipore Express SHF membrane delivers all the benefits you’d expect from a quality Millipore membrane. Reliable sterilizing performance. Multiple steam-in-place or autoclave sterilization cycles. Broad chemical compatibility. Easy integrity testing. And fast flow to help you fill your buffer filtration tank quickly—now with the added benefits of improving filtration efficiency and economics.

Regulatory Compliance

Millipore Express SHF filters are designed, developed and manufactured in accordance with a Quality Management System approved by an accredited registering body of an ISO® 9000 Quality Systems Standard. Each capsule is shipped with a Certificate of Quality. All devices are 100% integrity tested during manufacture and supported by a Validation Guide for compliance with regulatory requirements.

For traceability and easy identification, each filter is identified with product name and other characteristics.

Multiple Formats Available

Opticap XL150, 300, 600, 3, 5 and 10 Capsule Filters have a unique design to minimize hold-up volume and reduce production losses.

The Opticap XLT 10, 20 and 30 T-line Capsule Filters T-line design accommodates series or parallel filtration to match your application needs, and a specially-designed stand enables quick and easy integration of the Opticap XLT into your existing process.

They all exist as autoclavable, gamma-compatible or sterile devices.
