Flotrex™ GF Capsules with Glass Microfiber Media
GE Depth Filters
Flotrex GF Capsule Filters (CFGF) are constructed with durable acrylic resin bonded glass microfiber media for superior performance in applications with excessive particle burden. CFGF filters provide excellent protection for final membrane filters and are also exceptional final filters in applications that do not require membrane filtration. Figure 1 shows the variety of Flotrex GF Capsule Filters.
- Flotrex GF has acrylic resin-bonded glass microfiber media
- Reliable particle retention
- Excellent service life in applications with severe particle loads
- Polypropylene structure for enhanced chemical resistance
- Excellent protection for final membrane filters
- Ideal for batch or small volume processes

Flotrex GF filters may be autoclaved or in-situ steam sterilized (up to 257ºF [125ºC], 30 minute cycles) for a maximum accumulated exposure of 10 hours. Alternatively, the filters may be sanitized with compatible chemical agents. GE certifies that the materials contained in its Flotrex GF Capsule filters meet U.S. FDA requirements for food contact under the applicable regulations in 21 CFR. For further information, contact the GE Technical Services Department. Flotrex GF filters meet the test criteria for USP class VI-121ºC Plastics. GE Water & Process Technologies filter capsules are designed and manufactured for resistance to a wide range of chemical solutions. Conditions will vary with each application and users should carefully verify chemical compatibility. Please contact your GE distributor for more information. Figures 2, 3 and 4 show the test data results of flow performance for the small, medium and large Flotrex GF Capsule Filters using a 10-inch length filter. |
