Viresolve® Pro Magnus Holder for Viresolve® Pro with Pod filter Holder for Viresolve® Prefilter

When using a Viresolve® Prefilter in combination with Viresolve® Pro Magnus, a Pod holder is required in front of the Viresolve® Pro Magnus Holder. The modular design of our Pod Filter holder allows users to operate as few as one filter at pilot scale, or as many as 30 Pod filters installed at the process scale. These options make it easy to configure and reconfigure a system as process requirements scale up or down.

  • Quick and easy loading and unloading
  • Modular format for 6x scalability within the same footprint
  • Robust construction is easy to use and set up
  • No product contact
  • Simple manual hydraulics
