In a typical application (see circular illustration at right), air/gas or liquid flows into openings in the outside of a segment and passes through the filter medium into an adjacent segment. The filtered air/gas or liquid then exits through openings at the center of the cartridge and out of the filter housing. The number of segments and the type of filter medium used in each MicroPure Segmented Filter are determined by your application. MicroPure offers filter media in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes for sterile filtration and woven stainless steel for other applications. Since each filter medium functions independently, you can increase throughput significantly by adding segments and filter media. The cartridge can be disassembled and reassembled quickly and easily. Unlike conventional filter cartridges, the two-way MicroPure design provides equal support for the filter media in both directions so you can reverse the flow if your application requires.
Why you need sterile air or gasTo reduce batch contamination, spoilage and product loss, effective sterile air or gas filtration is a necessary part of your process. Especially important in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, sterile air/gas filtration protects your product from harmful submicron particle contamination and bacterial transfer or growth. It also helps protect production yield, especially in high-tech industries (electronics, plating, magnetic media, etc.) where submicron particle contamination can significantly reduce yields, resulting in product and dollar loss. The use of high efficiency submicron air and gas filters have become a standard "current good manufacturing practice" allowing for more productive and economical processing.

Why you need filtered steam To protect costly equipment, maintain processing efficiency and reduce downtime, it's important to remove scale and debris that are common in most systems. Filtered steam will protect valves, process equipment, and process filters from damage. To protect product purity, you need culinary grade steam with particles no larger than 2 microns. When filtered through a SegamFlo Steam Filter, steam used to agitate, mix, or cook food will be free from contaminates which can spoil the appearance, smell, or taste of your product. No other filter offers this combination of features:
Why you need filtered liquidsTo protect product quality, maintain efficiency and reduce downtime, it's important to remove particulates from component liquids and final liquid products prior to filling. SegmaFlo Trap Filters from MicroPure help prevent line debris from entering your product by filtering out particulate and other process contaminants as small as 2 microns. No other filter offers this combination of features:
Why you need sterile tank vent filtersTo reduce batch contamination, spoilage, and product loss, submicron filtration is a necessary part of your process--particularly if you are involved in industries that require sterile products (aseptic food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and others). To maintain safe, balanced pressure during the filling or emptying of a storage vessel, tank vent or breather filters are essential to help reduce the possibility of contaminating your product.
