Efficiency Information

Removal efficiency for specific micron ratings at 90.0%, 99.0%, and 99.9% is available in the official PDF. Efficiency of nominal filters varies by application; nominal-rated filters have a wider distribution of pore sizes and rejected particle sizes compared to absolute-rated filters.

Certifications

• U.S. FDA 21CFR 177.1520 food contact requirements
• Article 3 of the EU Framework Regulation No. 1935/2004/EC safety requirements
• EU Plastics Regulation No. 10/2011 (may be used as intended in all compliant EU Member states)
• USP class VI-121°C Plastics criteria
• NSF 61 criteria
• ISO 9001 criteria (filters are manufactured under an ISO 9001 certified quality management system)

Ordering Information

Ordering information allows selection of micron rating, cartridge length, end adapters (e.g., 222 O-Ring, Plain End, Flat Gasket), and elastomer material. See the official PDF for full details on available codes and configurations.
