Pall 12072 Mini Profile Star Capsule Filter – 5 µm, 90 cm2, Individually Sealed The Pall 12072 is a high-capacity Mini Profile™ Star capsule filter designed for the efficient clarification of biological and chemical fluids. Utilizing Pall’s absolute-rated Profile Star pleated depth media, this capsule provides a significant 90 cm2 filtration area—roughly double the surface area of standard depth capsules of the same size. The pleated geometry, combined with a continuously graded pore structure, ensures high throughput and superior gel removal, making it an essential choice for protecting downstream sterilizing-grade membranes. Supplied individually sealed, the 12072 ensures high purity and ease of use in pilot-scale bioprocessing and critical laboratory filtration workflows. Technical Performance and Design Profile Star Pleated Media: The pleated depth construction provides a larger surface area to distribute particulate load, significantly extending the service life and reducing pressure drop in high-solids applications. 5 µm Absolute Retention: Calibrated for 99.98% efficiency (Beta 5000) at 5 microns, providing the reliability required for critical pre-filtration and secondary clarification steps. Graded Density Matrix: Features a tapered pore structure that captures larger particles on the outer layers while trapping finer debris deeper within the pleats, maximizing the total capacity of the media. All-Polypropylene Construction: Manufactured from 100% virgin polypropylene, ensuring broad chemical compatibility and extremely low extractables for sensitive analytical applications. Product Specifications Catalog Number: 12072 Filter Media: Profile Star (Pleated Polypropylene Depth) Pore Size (Absolute): 5 µm Effective Filtration Area (EFA): 90 cm2 (14.0 in2) Connections: 9/16 in. (14.2 mm) Single Hose Barb (Inlet/Outlet) Max Operating Pressure: 4.1 bar (60 psi) @ 30°C; 3.4 bar (50 psi) @ 50°C Packaging: Individually Sealed Key Benefits & Applications Secondary Clarification: Optimized for the removal of cellular debris and large aggregates in monoclonal antibody (mAb) and vaccine production. Membrane Protection: Serves as a high-efficiency pre-filter to prevent the premature clogging of 0.2 µm and 0.45 µm sterilizing-grade filters. Chemical & Solvent Filtration: Highly resistant to many acids, bases, and organic solvents, making it suitable for diagnostic reagent manufacturing and fine chemical processing. Low Hold-up Volume: The compact design ensures maximum product recovery, which is critical when processing high-value biological samples.
