Manuel d'utilisation - Compresseurs Clinic 6.90
These aseptic class filter elements are produced to the highest quality standards to ensure the requirements of sterile
degree in compressed air and gas feed.
Materials of construction are as follows:
Endcaps:
Inner and outer cylinder:
High Efficiency Filtration layer:
Sealant:
O-ring:
The high efficiency filter media is made of certified HEPA grade borosilicate glass microfibre, having a penetration of
less than 0.0001% at 0.3 µ., equivalent to an overall efficiency ≥ 0.3 µ when tested with a DOP aerosol and measured
with a nucleus condensate particle counter.
Sealant remains flexible when warming-up, in order to compensate for metal parts expansion during sterilisation.
N.B.:
It is User's responsibility to ensure that a suitable process for inhibiting growth of trapped bacteria and virus is respected. It
is therefore recommended to sterilise the filter prior commencement of each sequence of aseptic duty. These elements are
capable of withstanding sterilisation phases of 20 ÷ 30 minutes in autoclave at 120 °C (50 steps maximum executable). For
"in situ" steam sterilisation, conventional steam condition for this purpose should be balanced across filter element with a
small flow orifice directed from outside to in. After steam sterilisation, the element should be allowed to flash dry before
the process gas is turned on. For maximum service life, it is recommended to check from time to time filter integrity. In
case testing equipment is not available, it is suggested to replace the filter element every six calendar months.
