General description

Polygard® CR products are nominally rated filters designed for particle removal applications in liquids and gases. The graded-density depth structure of Polygard® CR filter media provides maximum filtration capacity, and the all-polypropylene construction offers low extractables levels and broad chemical compatibility.

The KR03A51HH1 Opticap® XL1Polygard® CR features a pore size of 3.0 μm. This single layer capsule filter has a hose barb inlet/outlet connection measuring 9/16 in. in diameter.

Opticap XL capsule filters eliminate the time and expense associated with assembling, cleaning, and validating stainless steel housings. The capsule patented design allows unparalleled thermal and hydraulic stress resistance, resulting in reliability, high confidence in the sterility process and improved cleanliness. The unique capsule design with Polygard® CR media minimizes hold-up volume and reduces production losses.
