Typical Flow Rates4


 

1Compatible fluids are define as those which do not swell, soften or attack any of the filter components.
2Measured under laboratory test conditions. The actual cumulative time depends on the process conditions. For applications requiring 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. Contact Pall for recommended procedures.
3Where indicated one hour sanitization cycles were utilized.
4Typical initial clean media differential pressure (ΔP) per 250 mm (10") cartridge for water at 20 °C (68 °F); viscosity 1 centipoise. For 508 mm, 762 mm and 1016 mm configurations divide the differential pressure by 2, 3, and 4 respectively.
