Sparks-PES cartridges are manufactured from a naturally hydrophilic polyethersulphone membrane.

Combined with 100% polypropylene support components, Sparks-PES cartridges provide high strength, long life and consistently precise particle retention across a wide range of particle sizes.

Sparks-PES cartridges are constructed of a multi-layer combination of filter membrane, membrane support and heavy duty outer jacket. Precision pleating, combined with fusion bonding, ensures that cartridge integrity is achieved by all components, eliminating the risk of bypass or extractables derived from bonding compounds.

The bio-safety of all materials used in the construction of Sparks-PES filter cartridges conform with FDA requirements and the polypropylene materials to USPXXI Class Vl.

APPLICATIONS: Microfiltration of process chemicals, providing users of fine chemicals with a contaminant free supply. Microfiltration of photoresists and development solvents. Microfiltration of Ultra-pure water. Microfiltration of moist gases. Sterile tank venting of pharmaceutical and fermentation processes

The bio-safety of all materials used in the construction of Sparks-PES filter cartridges conform with FDA requirements and the polypropylene materials to USPXXI Class Vl. Sparks-PES cartridges are manufactured in a class 10,000 clean room, to the quality control standards of ISO 9001. North American Filter Corporation is ISO 9001 certified.

To meet the demanding criteria for ultra-clean filtration, Sparks-PES filter cartridges can be integrity tested and rinsed with l8mO water prior to shipment.

Each Sparks-PES cartridge is individually coded with a unique serial number. All procedures are subject to the highest quality assurance standards.

Sparks-PES cartridges are designed to be steam sterilized and will retain their integrity following sterilizing at 240°F Sparks-PES cartridges are available in single or multiple lengths of 10", 20", 30", and 40".

Sparks-PES cartridges, furnished with a wide range of end caps, gaskets, and O-rings, are designed to fit existing housings without modifications.

Test Conditions - Typical Clean Water Flow Rate - Based on a 10" (250mm) single module Shawndra housing exhibiting the differential pressure characteristics Indicated above, for solutions with a viscosity of 1 centipoise. For solutions with different viscosities consult factory for flow rates.
