Cartridge filters offer an excellent solution for high-throughput medical device applications, seamlessly integrating with built-in filtration housings to deliver reliable and repeatable performance. Cartridge filters are ideal for systems where single-use sterility is not required. The pleated filter design optimizes the effective filtration area (EFA), delivering maximum performance while maintaining a compact footprint. Saint-Gobain Medical offers customization in size, material, and configuration to address the unique challenges of each application.
Housing materials include polypropylene (PP), gamma-stable PP, and polyethylene
Nylon endcaps available
Manufactured by thermal bonding, no adhesives used
Performance & Functionality
Pre-filtration, sterile filtration, and multi-stage filtration for liquids and gases
Filter materials with pore sizes from 0.05 µm to 300 µm
Customization & Compatibility
Three (3) standard configurations, customizable options
Junior, Mid-Size, and Full-Size cartridges, EFA from 150 to 22,000 cm²
Tailored to meet biocompatibility (e.g. USP Class VI) and sterilization (e.g. ETO) requirements
Wide selection of standard and custom endcap modifications ensures seamless integration with housings and fittings
Typical Applications
Endoscope Reprocessing: Pre-filtration and final filtration (sterilizing grade) of water and cleaning reagents used in endoscope reprocessing.
In Vitro Diagnostics: Particulate removal from samples, reagents, and cleaning fluids to protect IVD equipment and extend maintenance cycles.
Flow Cytometry: Sheath fluid, air, and cleaning fluid filters to mitigate interference in the diagnostic assessment and maximize uptime in flow cytometers.
