amcAccuFlow HP cartridge is a premium sterilizing-grade filter product combining two layers of amcAccupor membrane with thermally bonded polypropylene components to provide a durable filter for aggressive microfiltration applications. Its double layer membrane configuration makes the cartridge ideally suited for final filtration in critical applications, especially those involving fluids at high temperatures.

amcAccuFlow HP cartridge is manufactured under tightly controlled procedures for consistent and reliable performance. During manufacturing, each amcAccuFlow HP cartridge is flushed with proprietary solvents, followed by purified water, and integrity tested to ensure the product quality.

amcAccuFlow HP cartridge is compatible with multiple autoclave and in-line steam sterilization, as well as chemical sanitization methods.







Performance Advantages:

* Constructed of only two materials, i.e., modified polyethersulfone and polypropylene with no
.. adhesives to ensure lower extractables

* Manufactured under stringent processes to ensure highest level of quality and consistency

* Provides high particle retention to minimize filter change-outs during batch processing

* Maximizes recovery of critical solution components with amcAccupor PES membrane¡¯s extensive
...drug compatibility and low protein binding characteristics

* Offers great resistance to severe sanitizing agents such as hot water, concentrated hydrogen
...peroxides, and active chloride compounds

* 100% integrity tested in production to ensure optimal quality product





Typical Applications:

* Pharmaceuticals and Biologicals: Parenterals, Ophthalmics, Oral and topical medicines, Serum, Tissue
...culture media, Wash and rinse water, Diagnostic reagents, Buffers, Vaccines, Bottle and vial
...washers, Dry compressed gases, Make-up water

* Food and Beverages: Alcohols, Mineral water, DI and RO water, Dry compressed gases, Juices and
...other potable liquids, Vinegar, Flavored seltzer
