Supracap™ 60 Depth Filter Capsules

Small Volume and Scalable

Supracap 60 capsules are designed for developing and optimizing a process during scale-up and scale-down studies. They can be used to quickly and accurately determine which series and grade of depth filter media will provide the best performance as well as the necessary filtration area required to meet process volume.

Supracap 60 capsules are readily scalable to Pall Supracap 100 capsules, Supradisc™ I, and Supradisc II depth filter modules. Supracap 60 capsules are also available with Seitz® HP sheet media (double-layer) that scales to Pall Supradisc HP filter modules.  Supracap 60 capsules are available with a wide selection of Seitz depth filter media for optimal grade selection.
