All Cronus filters are manufactured in compliance with ISO 9001 using validated production processes. This ensures consistency, reliability and membrane integrity, week after week, year after year.
Additionally, samples of all the filter batches and membranes are held for 24 months from production for reference. This enables your current batch to be tested in our labs under your conditions should you require assistance with an application.
Cronus filters are manufactured using inert, extractable free virgin polypropylene housings with Luer lock and Luer slip fittings. Each filter is sealed using an ultrasonic process to ensure that no adhesives can contaminate your samples – essential to maintain your sample integrity. At the same time the process creates a physically stronger filter to protect against potentially dangerous bursting.
PTFE
This is chemically resistant to virtually all solvents and can be used for working with aggressive media such as strong acids and bases. PTFE is hydrophobic and requires pre-wetting (normally by using a small amount of alcohol) before being used with aqueous samples. PTFE filters can also be used to prevent moisture passing through air vents.
