Additional Information
• ZCore cartridge filters are made from thermally
bonded fibers of polypropylene. GE certifies that
it uses no resin binders, lubricants, antistatic or
release agents, in the manufacture of these filter
cartridges. The resin used for manufacturing the
filter media meet the food contact requirements
of the U.S. FDA 21CFR 177.1520. ZCore cartridge
filters meet the safety requirements of Article 3
of the EU Framework Regulation No.
1935/2004/EC and may be used as intended in
all of the EU Member states in full compliance
with the EU Plastics Regulation No. 10/2011.
ZCore cartridge filters meet the criteria for USP

•
ZCore cartridge filters are designed and manu-
factured for resistance to a wide range of chem-
ical solutions. Conditions will vary with each
application and users should carefully verify
chemical compatibility. Please contact your GE
representative for more information.
• ZCore cartridge filters may be autoclaved for 30
minutes at 250°F (121°C) under no end load
conditions. The autoclaved cartridges must fea-
ture single open-end connections (222 o-ring
with closed end). Filter cartridges should be al-
lowed to cool to normal system operating tem-
peratures prior to use.
• If you are ordering ZCore filters with standard
ends (with no adapter on either end), select one
designation from each of the first three columns.
Your Product Order Number will look like this:
ZCore 05-40. If you are ordering ZCore with end
adapters, select designations from all applicable
columns. Your Product Order Number will look
like this: ZCore 05-40 XK.
