Lenticular Filter Housing – 12-inch
Lenticular Filter Housing – 12-inch
The 12-inch Lenticular Filter Housing or Pharma-Pak® Sanitary Housing manufactured by ErtelAlsop is a highly polished pharmaceutical grade housing with sanitary fittings, vent connection and no internal threads. The housing is made of 316L stainless steel and is suitable for any pharmaceutical, biotech or FDA application.
This housing can be constructed to accommodate up to four 12-inch lenticular filters in a vertical configuration. A special cylinder spacer can be ordered that allows the conversion of a 1-module housing into a 2-module housing on demand. This allows for a modular approach when the batch size varies.
These housings are made with a double o-ring end configuration. This removes the need for a center post, reduces change-out labor and dramatically lowers the chance for bypass.
