Product Description

PL0.45-20ABS 0.45 Micron Absolute Filter for Pathogen Removal

The PL0.45-20ABS is a high-precision, 0.45-micron absolute filter engineered to provide an essential barrier against Clostridium perfringens and other waterborne bacteria. Featuring a pleated polypropylene media in a rigid casing, this filter is laboratory-tested to Beta 5000 standards with 99.99999% efficiency. Because C. perfringens spores are highly resistant to standard Ultra Violet (UV) treatment, this absolute barrier serves as a critical defense layer for borehole, well, and private water supplies.

Why Choose the PL0.45-20ABS Absolute Filter?

  • Absolute Efficiency: 0.45-micron absolute rating provides a verified mechanical barrier against persistent bacterial spores.

  • Proven Performance: Rigorously tested to Beta 5000, ensuring consistent and dependable filtration outcomes for health-critical applications.

  • Traceable Quality: Each filter features traceable batching for full quality assurance.

  • Specialized Protection: Essential for water supplies where UV treatment is insufficient to neutralize resilient bacterial strains.

Expert Recommendation: To protect the integrity and lifespan of your PL0.45-20ABS filter, we strongly recommend a multi-stage pre-filtration setup consisting of a 5-micron and a 1-micron sediment filter in series. This prevents premature binding and ensures your absolute filter performs to specification.

Clostridium perfringens is a bacteria that forms spores that are highly resistant to environmental stress and standard disinfection methods, such as UV light. An absolute 0.45-micron filter provides a physical barrier that removes these spores, preventing them from contaminating your water supply.

"Absolute" rating means that the filter has been tested to have a specific removal efficiency (in this case, 99.99999%) for particles of that size. Unlike "nominal" filters, an absolute filter provides a verified, guaranteed safety threshold, which is critical when dealing with pathogenic bacteria.
