Industry’s Filtration Partner
Depth Filter Modules for Critical Process Fluids

DEPTH-CLEAR S Series depth filter modules, constructed of specially formulated cellulose media and inorganic filter aids, provide reliable particle retention and enhanced throughput for superior performance in critical applications. The filter media utilize mechanical and electrokinetic adsorptive capture mechanisms to remove particles, microorganisms, colloids and pyrogen from critical process streams. The module format allows the filtration process to occur within a totally enclosed environment. This eliminates the potential for atmospheric contamination and product loss through leakage.

The DEPTH-CLEAR proprietary formulation process produces filter media with a highly effective filtration area that provides superior particle retention, high contaminant holding capacity, and long on-stream filter life. Manufacturing by means of an advanced, highly automated production process results in very consistent product quality and filtration performance. Each grade is formulated to optimize the retention and flow characteristics, allowing a wide selection of choices to meet an application’s filtration requirements.
