Memtrex NY CMNY capsules

Summary

Product identification

• Name: Memtrex NY Capsules (CMNY)
• Description: Memtrex NY capsule filters feature a unique polyester and polypropylene construction for enhanced reliability. Polyester housings and support layers ensure capsule integrity, while a nylon prefilter membrane layer over a final membrane layer significantly extends filter life.
• Typical Applications:
  • Beverages
  • Cosmetics
  • Electronics
  • Fine and Bulk Chemicals
  • Pharmaceuticals
• Features and Benefits:
  • Utilizes inherently hydrophilic, high-purity Nylon66 membrane
  • Innovative serial layer membrane design
  • Thermal weld techniques — no adhesives, resins or binders
  • Low extractables
  • 100% integrity tested and rinsed for uncompromised reliability and consistency
• Available Absolute Micron Ratings: 0.1, 0.2, 0.45, and 0.65 µm.
• Materials of Construction:
  • Filtration Media: Two Layers of Hydrophilic Nylon66 (prefilter layer over final layer)
  • Membrane Support Layers: Polyester Microfiber
  • Structural Components: Polyester and Polypropylene

Operating limits

• Max. Operational Pressure:
  • 80 psi (5.5 bar) at 70ºF (21ºC) in liquid
  • 55 psi (3.8 bar) at 70ºF (21ºC) in gas
• Max. Differential Pressure: 60 psi (4.1 bar) at 70ºF (21ºC)
• Max. Operating Temperature: 110ºF (43ºC) at ≤30 psid (2.1 bar) Operating Pressure
• Sanitization: Memtrex NY Capsule filters may be sanitized with a variety of commonly used chemical agents; however, acidic solutions should be avoided.
• Autoclaving: The capsules may be repeatedly autoclaved (257°F [125°C], 30 minutes) for up to 5 cycles.
• Certifications:
  • Materials meet U.S. FDA requirements for food contact under the applicable regulations in 21 CFR.
  • Meet the test criteria for USP class VI-121°C Plastics.
