Products
Seven families, one brand
Every model has its datasheet with the specifications of the current catalog and, where it applies, the ordering code configurator.
LifePure · UltraPure · FluoroPure
Membrane cartridges
Three membranes, the same pleated construction: asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) in the LifePure line, nylon 6,6 in the UltraPure line, and hydrophobic PTFE in the FluoroPure line, for air and gases.
17 models
PreFiber · MicroFiber · ProFlow · MicroMesh
Prefiltration
Prefiltration determines how long the final filter lasts and how much each filtered liter costs.
11 models
AeroSep · Industrial filter elements
Industrial filters
Coalescers that separate liquids from gas streams, replacements for installed equipment, and pleated elements for fuels, hydraulic oils and gases.
6 models
SaniFlow
Filter housings
Sanitary housings for 10″ to 40″ cartridges and for High Flow cartridges, and housings for filter bags, designed and manufactured at our stainless steel fabrication plant in Argentina.
10 models
ExoFlex · AgileReact · AgileConnect
Single-use and bioprocessing
Single-use systems to prepare, store, and transport process fluids: ExoFlex bags manufactured in a cleanroom, AgileReact stainless steel containers for 3D bags, and AgileConnect connectors to build and connect the lines.
8 models
Gas treatment · Liquid treatment
Pressure vessels
Filter housings and coalescer vessels for gas, housings to retain solids and separate liquids, and basket strainers.
5 models
Agitated tanks · Holding tanks
Tanks and reactors
Holding tanks to store and transfer product, and magnetically or mechanically agitated pharmaceutical reactors to prepare, mix and homogenize; the RLQ can also be built as a bioreactor.
