Additional Information
Flotrex GF filters may be autoclaved or in situ
steam sterilized (up to 257°F [125°C] 30-minute
cycles) for a maximum accumulated exposure
of 10 hours. Alternatively, the filters may be san-
itized with compatible chemical agents.
GE certifies that the materials contained in its
Flotrex GF pleated filters meet US FDA require-
ments for food contact under the applicable
regulations in 21 CFR. For further information,
contact GE technical services. Flotrex GF
filters meet the test criteria for USP Class
VI-121°C Plastics.
Aqueous extracts from Flotrex GF filters contain
less than 0.25 EU/ml. The filters typically exhibit
low levels of non-volatile residues.
GE Filter cartridges are designed and manufac-
tured for resistance to a wide range of chemical
solutions. Conditions will vary with each appli-
cation and users should carefully verify chemi-
cal compatibility. Please contact your GE
distributor for more information.
