Product Overview
Hydrophilic charged nylon membrane provides excellent flow rates, broad chemical compatibility, low extractability, high mechanical strength, and temperature resistance in a variety of industries for the biopharmaceutical and dialysis processes.
The Endo-MAXX CN meets USP Biological Reactivity Test, in vivo for class VI-121°C plastics. Sterilizable using industry recognized and accepted methods.
Features & Benefits
Integrity tested endotoxin removal filter
Absolute-rated membrane provides reliable, consistent and repeatable filtrate quality
Maximum pleat design for greater surface area, ensuring longer service life, fewer change outs and reduced operating costs per element
All materials of construction are FDA compliant with CFR Title 21, pharmaceutical grades are bio-safe in accordance with USP Class VI
Thermally bonded construction without the use of adhesives or binders, resulting in lower extractables
Positive zeta potential for removal of charged particles smaller than the absolute retention rating of the filter
