Product details

Durable construction.

Durable construction.

3M™ LifeASSURE™ BDA Series Filter Cartridges are highly durable and capable of secure operation through numerous cycles of hot water sanitation, steam sterilization and chemical-based cleaning and sanitation.

Highly asymmetric BDA membrane.

Highly asymmetric BDA membrane.

3M™ LifeASSURE™ BDA Series Filter Cartridges incorporates a dual-layer asymmetrical membrane that reduces flow resistance, which results in a lower pressure drop, fewer filters required, a greater contaminant retention capacity and a longer service life.

Advanced Pleat Technology (APT).

Advanced Pleat Technology (APT).

3M’s APT design helps to maximize the useful surface area of the filter while maintaining open flow paths between the media pleats. It also provides lower pressure drop, a longer service life and lower overall operational costs.

Robust media support design.

Robust media support design.

Combining the special upstream and downstream membrane support layers with the APT design greatly increases per-cartridge flow rates, resulting in lower overall operational costs and a longer service life.

  • Validated 0.2 μm absolute-rated membrane for reliable sterile filtration
  • Asymmetric dual-layer polyethersulfone membrane provides a high capacity and long service life to help reduce costs
