amcCapsule

amcFilterCap E, amcPTFECap E and amcChemCap E disposable capsule filters are specifically designed for point-of-use application to meet small to mid-volume solution filtration needs.  Three filter media are available (polyethersulfone, polytetrafluoroethylene and polypropylene) and fully encapsulated in three different sizes of compact and easy-to-handle polypropylene housing shell (S, M and L). A large variety of filter selection enables the users to deal with a wide range of solvents, acids, bases, and chemicals commonly used in today’s electronics industry.

Engineered to offer high retention efficiency, high flow rate and long product life, these capsule filters contribute to a better cost performance for the users.
