The Donaldson LifeTec™ P-SRF V sterile filter element offers premier performance in compressed air, technical gas and tank venting filtration applications within the processed food and beverage industry.

The P-SRF V filter element meets or exceeds sterility requirements for food and beverage industries such as, dairy, food ingredients and alcoholic beverages. The P-SRF V’s stainless steel construction and media allow for excellent performance in some of the most challenging processed food and beverage applications.

The depth filter media is non-fiber releasing and complies with the FDA requirements (Food and Drug Administration Title 21 CFR 211.72 latest edition) and (EC) No. 1935/2004 for indirect food contact use.

The element is capable of a log reduction value (LRV) of 9 at o 0.2 and 0.02 microns, and a LRV of 10 at 0.003 microns as verified in a DIN EN 1822 adopted test.

Features

• Developed for the sterile filtration of air and gases in venting applications in which CIP reagents are applied
• High retention rate (bacteria, viruses and particles) down to 3 nm (nanometers) to help ensure product and process integrity
• High temperature & mechanical resistance for outstanding performance and minimization of production downtime and maintenance costs
• Suitable for sterilization, using VPHP and ozone – this leads to reduced total cost of ownership

Applications

• Tank ventilation
• Container aeration
• Carbon dioxide
• Fermentation air
• Technical gases
• Aseptic packaging of processed food and beverages
