Data Sheet Polygard -CN Filters Versatile pleated ilters for the clariication and preiltration of process luids Lenntech info@lenntech.com www.lenntech.com Tel. +31-1-261.9. Fax. +31-1-261.62.89 Polygard -CN products are nominally rated ilters designed for particle removal applications in liquids and gases. The pleated structure of Polygard -CN ilter media minimizes pressure differentials during the iltration process, and the all-polypropylene construction of these ilters conveys low levels of extractables and broad chemical compatibility. Downstream ilter performance is enhanced due to eficient particle and microorganism reduction. Benefits Nominal particle retention rating Low pressure drop Low extractables levels Broad range of micron ratings to match an array of particle removal applications Designed for rigorous process conditions and broad chemical compatibility Ideal for designing scalable solutions from bench top to full-scale manufacturing
Regulatory Compliance Polygard -CN ilters are designed, developed, and manufactured in accordance with a Quality Management System approved by an accredited registering body to an ISO 9 Quality Systems Standard and are shipped with a Certiicate of Quality. Each Opticap XL capsule and cartridge ilter is supported by a Validation Guide for compliance with regulatory requirements. For traceability and easy identiication, each ilter is marked with identifying characteristics. Multiple Formats Available Polygard -CN ilters are available in three formats, seven pore sizes, and multiple conigurations that vary by iltration area and the type of inlet/outlet connection.

OptiScale Process Development Screening Tool OptiScale disposable capsule ilters with Polygard -CN media provide a convenient small-volume option for process screening and scaling. These drop in ilters are ideal for evaluating biopharmaceuticals. OptiScale capsule ilters offer speed-to-market strategies for eficiently developing compounds and biotherapeutics. The OptiScale disposable capsule is ideally suited for process development and screening. OptiScale capsules are faster and easier to set up than conventional 47 mm discs. OptiScale Filters Opticap XL Disposable Capsule Filters Opticap XL disposable capsule ilters with Polygard -CN media are available in two ilter sizes. The patented Opticap XL capsule design allows unparalleled thermal and hydraulic stress resistance in a disposable ilter, resulting in reliability, high conidence in the sterility process and improved cleanliness. The unique capsule design with pleated Polygard -CN media minimizes hold-up volume and reduces production losses. Convenient and Easy to Use Opticap XL capsule ilters eliminate the time and the expense associated with assembling, cleaning, and validating stainless steel housings. Adjustable, easy-toturn, upstream vents and drain valves with o-ring seals and hose barb connections allow for easy process control. Other ease-of-use features include low directional arrows and ribbed edges for easy gripping even with gloved hands. The Right Size A range of ilter sizes is available to it all of your application needs, and to allow easy scale-up of your small volume iltration steps to larger, full-scale iltration processes. Opticap XL Filters The Right Connections Self-contained and disposable, Opticap XL capsule ilters are supplied with a choice of inlet and outlet connections to optimize your iltration process, including sanitary langes which enables a higher low rate, fractional sanitary langes, and hose barbs. Cartridge Filters Polygard -CN cartridge ilters provide high throughput and minimal differential pressure. Cartridges are robust, strong, resilient and are designed to withstand multiple steam-in-place cycles. A full range of ilter sizes is available to suit your application requirements. A variety of connection options are offered for easy adaptation to existing housings. Cartridge Filters
