Fact Sheet

Memtrex* MP

Pleated Filters with Polyethersulfone Membrane

Memtrex MP (MMP) filters constructed with hydro-
philic polyethersulfone membranes and all poly-
propylene components, exhibit both enhanced
throughput and reliable particle retention for supe-
rior performance in most applications. MMP filters
are compatible with a broad range of chemicals
and pH extremes. The low protein binding charac-
teristics of the polyethersulfone membranes en-
sure that MMP filters are suitable in a variety of
beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical applica-
tions.

Constructed using thermal welding techniques, the
MMP filters do not contain any adhesives or addi-
tives, and individual integrity testing assures that
MMP filters meet the exacting performance re-
quirements of our customers.

The MMP filter is just one example of our dedicated
commitment to fluid filtration. Our extensive port-
folio includes filters for every stage of processing,
and we can offer custom solutions for your unique
applications. GE is your complete source for filters,
housings, and other filtration equipment.
