DESCRIPTION
Supor™ EX grade ECV filters in Kleenpak™ Nova, cartridges, a Pall Life Sciences product, are high capacity, high flow rate 0.2 µm sterilizing grade filters for highly efficient filtration of cell harvest material, growth media, and other biological process fluids.
A polyethersulfone (PES) membrane pairing ensures Supor EX grade ECV filters deliver highly efficient filtration of cell harvest material, process intermediates, growth media, buffers and final bulk biological process fluids. Supor EX grade ECV filters also deliver unrivalled efficiency with more viscous process streams.
Available in capsules with filter areas of 0.1 m2 to 3 m2 and in a variety of configurations, Kleenpak Nova capsules with Supor ECV membranes have a size and format to meet your process needs today and can scale as your process grows to meet your future needs without a change of membrane or materials.
