Filtration Area
PPD Depth Filter Cartridges are designed to be used as pre-filters
in critical pharmaceutical systems. Special attention was given
in the design of these cartridges to ensure long life as well as
superior retention. PPD Depth Filter Cartridges are rated at 99.9%
efficiencies at the rated pore size and have been flushed with high
purity water (18+ megohm-cm) to remove any manufacturing
debris and ensure particle-free filtrate.

Integrity Test Information
All PPD cartridge filter modules are factory tested for integrity
before shipment. Field duplication of these tests is not practical
because of the absence of commercial portable testing
equipment.
Sanitization/Sterilization
For all elevated temperature procedures above, a stainless steel
support ring is required.
Chemical Sanitization
Performed using industry-standard concentrations of hydrogen
peroxide, paracetic acid, sodium hypochlorite and other
selected chemicals.
