PPD Filters

For prefiltering critical pharmaceutical and healthcare liquids.

PPD filters are constructed with pleated Polypropylene depth media for prefiltering critical pharmaceutical and healthcare liquids, including water, chemicals, and solvents. Pore sizes range from 0.10 to 100 µm, and filter sizes scale from laboratory to full production using identical materials to ensure consistent results.

These hydrophilic filters have superior retention and protect downstream filters by removing large amounts of particulate and other contaminants. PPD filters are rated at 99.9% efficiencies at the indicated pore size. Designed for high capacity and long life makes the PPD a very cost-effective filter.
