3M™ LifeASSURE™ 020SP Series 70002-02A-020SP, 20" 0.2 micron Filter Cartridge, 1 per carton

3M™ LifeASSURE™ 020SP series sterilizing grade filters and capsules are validated for absolute bacteria retention and provide reliable sterile filtration performance. In addition to a fixed bacteria retentive pore structure, LifeASSURE™ 020SP series membrane is charge modified to provide enhanced reduction of negatively charged biological contaminants such as endotoxin, virus and nucleic acid fragments. The combination of a validated bacteria retentive membrane, together with enhanced reduction of negatively charged contaminants, make LifeASSURE™ 020SP series membrane an ideal choice for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical sterilizing applications. Each LifeASSURE™ 020SP series cartridge and capsule filter is supplied with a Certificate of Quality. A Validation Guide is available for ease of compliance with regulatory requirements. The Quality Management System is approved by an internationally recognized accrediting body to an ISO 9001:2008 Registered Quality System Standard.

• Charge-modified Nylon 6,6 filter medium. Retention of negatively-charged biological and particulate contaminants including endotoxins. Inherently hydrophilic membrane for easy wet-out
• High area, pleated membrane design- high flow rates, low pressure drop and smaller filter systems, longer service life for reduced filtration costs
• Reliable 0.2 μm validated performance. Meets FDA definition of 0.2 μm sterilizing grade filter (107 CFU/cm2 B. diminuta retention) and integrity test correlated with sterile fi ltration performance data and supported by Validation Guide
• Robust cartridge construction. Cartridges withstand mechanical and thermal stress including Steam In Place operations
• Cartridges 100% integrity tested. Ensures consistent performance to specifi cations, integrity testable pre-and post-use
• ISO 9001:2008 - Registered Quality System. Quality Management System approved by an accrediting body to an ISO 9001:2008 Quality Systems Standard
