Featuring the proprietary Polysep™ II media, this capsule utilizes a double-layer format: a depth-loading borosilicate glass fiber prefilter and a high-retention mixed cellulose esters (MCE) membrane. This combination allows for the effective removal of lipids, colloids, and heavy particulates while maintaining superior flow rates and protecting expensive downstream sterilizing filters. The Opticap® XL 4 design features a patented housing that withstands high thermal and hydraulic stress, making it a reliable choice for pharmaceutical and biotechnological production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Performance and Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePolysep™ II Double-Layer Media:\u003c\/b\u003e The 1.0 µm glass fiber layer provides massive dirt-holding capacity for large aggregates, while the 0.2 µm MCE layer ensures consistent bioburden reduction and fine particle retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOptimized for Aqueous Solutions:\u003c\/b\u003e Naturally hydrophilic media requires no pre-wetting agents and offers excellent thermal stability, making it ideal for buffer prep, cell culture media, and ophthalmics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSanitary Flange Connections (TT3):\u003c\/b\u003e Equipped with 1-1\/2 inch (38 mm) Sanitary Flanges on both the inlet and outlet, providing a secure, aseptic interface compatible with standard Tri-Clamp fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh Surface Area:\u003c\/b\u003e The XL 4 format provides 0.11 m² of filtration area, offering a compact footprint for mid-scale processing batches (typically 10 to 100 Liters).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCatalog Number:\u003c\/b\u003e KGW3A04TT3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMedia Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Polysep™ II (BGF prefilter \/ MCE membrane)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePore Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.0\/0.2 µm (Nominal)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFiltration Area:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.11 m² (1.2 ft²)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnections (Inlet\/Outlet):\u003c\/b\u003e 1-1\/2 inch Sanitary Flange (TC)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 19.6 cm (7.7 in.)
