EPM.K Membrane Filter Cartridges (Liquid Filtration)
Description
EPM.K (ЭПМ.К) cartridge membrane
elements are manufactured by a proprietary technology of Technofilter and are
close analogues of Pall's Ultipor and Nylaflo elements and Sartorius's Sartolon
element.

applications
-
In medicine and
biopharmaceutics: for removal of mechanical contaminants, clarification and
sterilization of parenteral and ophthalmological solutions, antibiotics,
cultural, bacterial and fermentative media, blood protein preparations, serum,
biological preparations and vaccines, vitamin and galena preparations, water
for injections.
-
In beverage industry: for
defertilization and cold sterilization of wine and beer, clarification of
distillery products, polishing filtration of vodkas, final filtration of
non-alcoholic beverages, mineral and bottled water, water for product
formulations and rinsing water.
-
In microelectronics, radio
engineering and biochemistry: for final filtration of deionized water,
photoresists, solvents and other media that are compatible with material of
construction.
-
In other industries: for
fine filtration of liquid media from particles 0.1 μm or more in size.

Capacity
for retention of bacteria
Sterilizing
capacity of EPМ.К has been confirmed with respect to test microorganism Brevundimonas
Diminuta, stain PCI 818 (Pseudomonas Diminuta ATCC 19146, DSM 1635). The
level of microbiological load on the filter element complies with requirements
of the guideline of Association of producers of medical industry on
microbiological examination of filters for sterilization of liquids. EPМ.К
has been checked for retention of bacteria after 10 cycles of autoclaving at
121°C in the Pharmacopoeia mode.
