Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory – a trusted manufacturer since 1998, with annual export value between US$5 Million and US$10 Million, serving markets across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Our Pleated Filter Element for Pharmaceutical Industry, 0.2 Micron, 304 SS, Sanitary Tri-Clamp, Sterile is engineered to meet the most stringent sterilization requirements. This filter element delivers absolute retention of microorganisms and particles, ensuring product purity and process safety in critical pharmaceutical applications.
The core of our design is a 0.2 micron absolute filtration rating – the industry standard for sterilizing-grade filtration. The pleated configuration dramatically increases the effective filtration surface area, reducing pressure drop and extending service life compared to ordinary depth filters. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, the element is fully autoclavable and compatible with CIP/SIP (Clean-in-Place / Sterilize-in-Place) procedures. The sanitary tri-clamp connection allows quick, tool-free installation and removal, while maintaining a hygienic, leak-free seal.
Below are the key technical specifications of the filter element:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Filter Media | 304 Stainless Steel fiber (sintered) or multilayer wire mesh |
| Filtration Rating | 0.2 µm (absolute) |
| Maximum Operating Temperature | 150°C (300°F) continuous; 180°C (356°F) for sterilization cycles |
| Maximum Differential Pressure | 4.0 bar (58 psi) at 25°C; 2.0 bar (29 psi) at 150°C |
| Nominal Length | 10" (254 mm), 20" (508 mm), 30" (762 mm), 40" (1016 mm) – other lengths available upon request |
| Connection | Sanitary Tri-Clamp (1.5" to 4" T.C. – customizable) |
| Filtration Area | Approx. 0.5 m² per 10" element (pleated) |
| Material Surface Finish | Electropolished, Ra ≤ 0.8 µm (optional mirror finish) |
Key features & benefits:
- Absolute microbial retention: 0.2 micron absolute rating ensures removal of bacteria, yeast, and molds – ideal for sterile filtration in pharmaceutical liquids, gases, and vent applications.
- High dirt-holding capacity: Pleated design increases surface area by 3–5 times compared to non-pleated elements, resulting in longer service life and lower replacement frequency.
- 304 stainless steel construction: Fully compatible with steam sterilization (autoclave, SIP), high-temperature CIP, and aggressive cleaning agents. No risk of media migration or fiber shedding.
- Sanitary tri-clamp connection: Meets 3A, BPE, and FDA guidelines for hygienic design. Quick disconnect reduces downtime and simplifies validation.
- Low pressure drop: Optimized pleat geometry and high porosity media minimize energy consumption and maintain consistent flow rates.
- Customizable dimensions: Available in various lengths, end cap styles (e.g., open-ended, closed with O-ring), and gasket materials (silicone, EPDM, Viton).
- Batch consistency: Every element is 100% integrity tested (bubble point or pressure hold) before shipment to guarantee performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: Is this filter element truly sterilizing-grade?
A: Yes, the 0.2 micron absolute rating meets the industry standard for sterilizing filtration. The element is validated to achieve a log reduction value (LRV) of ≥7 for Brevundimonas diminuta (ATCC 19146). -
Q: How do I sterilize the filter element?
A: The element can be steam sterilized in an autoclave at 121°C for 30 minutes or 134°C for 15 minutes. It is also compatible with SIP (Steam-in-Place) procedures up to 150°C. -
Q: What gasket materials are available?
A: Standard gasket is silicone (FDA compliant). Optional materials include EPDM, Viton, and PTFE – please specify when ordering. -
Q: Can the element be used for liquid and gas filtration?
A: Yes, it is suitable for both liquid (e.g., water for injection, buffer solutions) and gas (e.g., sterile air, nitrogen) applications. For gas, ensure the element is properly wetted or use a hydrophobic version (available upon request). -
Q: What is the typical replacement interval?
A: It depends on the operating conditions and contaminant load. In typical pharmaceutical water systems, a 10" element may last 6–12 months. We recommend periodic pressure drop monitoring to determine optimal change-out. -
Q: Do you provide certificates of compliance or test reports?
A: Yes, we can provide material certificates (EN 10204 3.1), bubble point test reports, and integrity test records for each batch. Please request at the time of order. -
Q: Can I get a custom length or connection size?
A: Absolutely. We offer customizable lengths from 5" to 60", and tri-clamp connections from 0.5" to 6". Contact our sales team with your specifications. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, MOQ is 10 pieces. For custom designs, MOQ may be 50 pieces. Sample orders (1–2 pieces) are available for evaluation.
