3M™ LifeASSURE™ 020SP Series Filter Capsule

• Charge-modified Nylon N6.6 filter medium
• Retention of negatively-charged biological and particulate contaminants including endotoxins
• Inherently hydrophilic membrane for easy wet-out
• Fully integrity testable
• High area, pleated membrane design. High flow rates, low pressure drop. Smaller filter systems and longer service life for reduced filtration costs
• Reliable 0.2 micron validated performance. Meets FDA definition of 0.2 micron sterilising grade filter (107CFU/cm² B. diminuta retention). Integrity test correlated with sterile filtration performance data and supported by Validation Guide

3M™ LifeASSURE™ 020SP Series Filter Capsules are our sterilising grade capsules. They contain a Nylon N6.6 microporous membrane which is charge modified to provide enhanced reduction of negatively charged biological contaminants such as endotoxin, virus and nucleic acid fragments.

3M™ LifeASSURE™ 020SP Series Filter Capsules are validated for absolute bacteria retention and provide reliable sterile filtration performance. The combination of a validated bacteria retentive membrane, together with enhanced reduction of negatively charged contaminants, make our LifeASSURE 020SP series microporous membrane an ideal choice for pharmaceutical liquid sterilising applications.

Suggested Applications

• Use for absolute bacteria retention and reliable sterile filtration performance in liquid applications
