The Pall Advanta range of filter housings has been specifically designed and engineered for today’s manufacturing processes. These advanced housings are manufactured from 316L stainless steel and are engineered to meet the requirements of the BioPharmaceutical industry. State-of-the-art manufacturing technologies are used to construct a housing ideal for the most critical of applications.
Fine filtration of liquids is a key part of many production processes. These Pall Advanta housings have been specifically designed to meet the many requirements of this demanding application. During the design process critical features were optimized to ensure trouble-free use and low installation and maintenance costs. Areas such as surface finish, suitability for CIP and SIP, integrity testing and incorporation into automated production processes are included.

4These part numbers represent the most commonly used housing variants with the shortest lead times. Many other variants are available (see ordering information). Please contact Pall for further information.
5The flow and pressure drop characteristics refer to the empty housing only for water at 20 °C (68 °F). For other liquids multiply pressure drop by relative density. To obtain the total pressure drop of a complete filter assembly, the cartridge pressure drop must be added. Please refer to the relevant filter cartridge literature or contact Pall.
