KleapCap T-line PES membrane Capsule Filter Bio-Burden Reduction Grade

Order KleapCap T-line PES membrane Capsule Filter Bio-Burden Reduction Grade from MS factory when you want an in line capsule geometry that simplifies piping and fits tight installation spaces while delivering reliable bio burden reduction performance. The filters are constructed of single layer hydrophilic polyethersulfone membrane in an all polypropylene construction, offering broad chemical compatibility, high flow rate at low pressure drop, and low extractables. The polyethersulfone is particularly suitable for the filtration of products that contain substances which adsorb to the membrane itself, and the low protein binding characteristics of PES make it a good choice for filtration of valuable protein solutions such as vaccines and biologicals.

The T-line design is specifically engineered for inline skid integration, where the inlet and outlet are aligned to minimize piping complexity and footprint. This format is often chosen to improve layout efficiency in crowded process skids, filling machines, and transfer systems where conventional capsule housings would be difficult to accommodate. The Staubli vent connection supports on line integrity testing for routine quality verification without removing the capsule from the line.

Why T-Line Geometry Matters in Space Constrained Installations

Conventional capsule filters typically use top and bottom connections that require vertical housing installation and additional piping elbows. The T-line format aligns the inlet and outlet in a straight through configuration, which reduces the number of piping components, lowers installation cost, and minimizes pressure losses associated with elbow fittings. For skid builders and original equipment manufacturers, this means more filtration capacity can be fitted into the same cabinet footprint, or the same capacity can be achieved in a smaller cabinet.

The T-line format also keeps the capsule body accessible for removal and replacement, even when installed in crowded equipment layouts. This accessibility reduces maintenance downtime and makes the format practical for production environments where changeout frequency is moderate to high.

Installation Checklist for T-Line Capsules

1.Confirm inlet and outlet orientation and flow direction before connecting the capsule to the piping.

2.Maintain adequate clearance around the vent port for integrity test equipment access and around the capsule body for removal.

3.Tighten all connections according to your site standard operating procedure and perform a leak check at operating pressure before introducing process fluid.

4.Flush the capsule with appropriate fluid until your acceptance criteria for particulates and extractables are met.

5.If required by your quality system, run an integrity test through the vent port and record the results in the batch record.

Application Notes for Inline Skids

Beverage filling skids. The T-line layout simplifies integration in crowded filling and transfer systems, where cabinet space is often shared with pumps, valves, and flow instrumentation.

Fine chemical transfer. The inline format supports quick replacement during campaign changes, reducing downtime between product changeovers in multi product facilities.

Pharmaceutical utilities. The compact footprint helps standardize multiple utility skids across a production facility, simplifying spare parts management and operator procedures.
