Product Overview

Our proprietary design utilizes an inlet and outlet vent for confident start up and safe efficient processing. Strainrite offers a wide array of materials from the innovative SG to our charged modified CN as well as absolute and nominal media like polypropylene and microglass. Strainrite capsules will also accept our sterile air and vent product line, the Vent MAXX and Vent Rite.

MAXX-Cap is available in sizes from 5" to 40". Strainrite offers the advantages of a capsule with low internal void space, that reduces valuable product loss by reducing your process costs. All Strainrite capsules are adaptable for use with sanitary fittings that can be autoclaved. Strainrite MAXX-Cap capsules may be integrated into existing capsule applications.

Made of 100% polypropylene, Strainrite's capsule design incorporates thermal bonding. Thermal bonding provides an integral fit that requires no glues, binders, surfactants or adhesives. This design ensures low extractable filtrate when incorporated with our low extractable 100% clean room manufactured cartridges.
