Yes, cartridge filters have a highly effective microbial retention capacity to effectively remove microbial contaminants from the air, ensuring a sterile environment. In addition, Sanitek PTFE cartridge filters have good chemical and can be used under a variety of harsh process conditions. Therefore, for applications requiring sterile gases, Sanitek PTFE cartridge filters are a reliable choice.
When water is drawn from the tank, the filter is not allowed to draw in air and the tank will collapse due to the resulting vacuum.
The distilled water tank is kept at a high temperature of 80ºC, however, due to the sudden drop in the outside temperature, the water vapor in the distilled water tank encounters a hole inside the cartridge filter when it is discharged through the exhaust filter, and the water vapor condenses rapidly due to the low temperature.
This situation causes the pores of the cartridge filter to become clogged with condensate, which prevents the smooth flow of airflow. As the air flow is blocked, the vacuum effect gradually develops.
Sanitek PTFE cartridge filter is a high-efficiency filter suitable for steam sterilization. They are rigorously tested and can be used for long periods of time at high temperatures, ensuring effective sterilization. These filters can be steam sterilized up to 100 times at 121°C with a cycle time of up to 30 minutes.
Whether inactivating microorganisms or filtering particulate matter, these filters effectively meet the needs and ensure a smooth sterilization process. Sanitek PTFE cartridge filters are your reliable partner in the steam sterilization process.
