GGPES-Series General Grade Polyethersulfone
GGPES-Series High Purity General Grade Polyethersulfone Filter Cartridges are a well-suited choice for cost-effective, general-purpose membrane filtration.
GGPES-Series Overview
GGPES-Series High Purity General Grade Polyethersulfone Filter Cartridges are a well-suited choice for cost-effective, general-purpose membrane filtration. The highly retentive polyethersulfone membrane offers excellent flux density and low protein binding. The naturally hydrophilic membrane wets easily to allow maximum utilization of the entire surface. These features coupled with its extended filtration area allow the GGPES-Series to provide lower pressure loss and longer service life versus comparable products. Designed to tolerate repeated hot water sanitization and in-situ steam sterilization cycles. Manufactured in a clean-room environment to maintain high standards of purity and cleanliness.
