Profile® UP Filter Cartridges
Pleated Depth Filters Designed for
High Particle Removal Efficiency
The filter cartridge combines the advantages of a continuously graded pore structure and unique laid-over pleat geometry to provide an increase in effective filtration area and service life. Fewer cartridges are required for a given flow rate than for a traditional depth style cartridge. Thus, filter vessels are correspondingly smaller, resulting in lower capital and installation costs, as well as reduced operating costs. | Features | Benefits |
| Fixed fiber matrix with no adhesives or surfactants |
|
| Media with laid-over pleat geometry |

| Polypropylene filter construction | Broad chemical compatibility |

Typical Flow Rates2

2Typical initial clean delta p per 254 mm (10 inch) cartridge, water at 20 °C (68 °F).
For liquids with viscosity greater than 1 cP, multiply the delta p by the viscosity.
Liquid Removal Rating
| Grade | Rating (μm) at 99.98% Efficiency (ß-5000) | Rating (μm) at 90% Efficiency (ß-10) |
| UY020 | 2.03 | <1.0 |
| UY045 | 4.5 | 1.2 |
| UY100 | 10 | 4.3 |
| UY200 | 20 | 11 |
| UY400 | 40 | 18 |
Profile UP filter cartridge liquid retention ratings are based on modified OSU-F2 test.
Sterilization and Sanitization3
| Method | Temperature |
| In-situ Steam Sterilization | 125 °C (257 °F) |
| In-situ Hot Water Sanitization | 80 °C (176 °F) |
3For applications requiring in situ sterilization or sanitization Pall recommends the use of Code 7 adaptors to ensure filter sealing after cooling. Cartridges should be cooled to system operating temperature prior to use.
