Pall Advanta™ Junior gas filter housings are designed for small to medium volume sanitary applications. Four complete series — AGT, ALI, ALT and AVL — provide optimal performances for gas filtration of up to 100 Nm³/hour (60 SCFM) and liquid filtration of up to 7.5 L/min (2 gal/min). Pall Advanta Junior Filter housings are made from stainless steel grade AISI 316L and are available in in-line, L flow and T flow configurations.

Developed for GMP implementation, these low upstream volume housings enable high product yields, low installation costs, low maintenance costs and operational simplicity. Advanced manufacturing technologies including CNC machining, automatic orbital welding and electro-polishing ensure a robust and highly sanitary design that meets the most stringent requirements. These are high quality versatile sanitary T-style housings for all small-scale gas filtration.

Features of this housing range are high quality electropolished internal surfaces, a design optimized for CIP/SIP requirements, design variants for easy automation, as well as convenient filter integrity testing.

Features and Benefits

• Aseptic design — with electropolished surfaces giving typical internal Ra-Values of ≤ 0.4 µm (≤ 15 µin.) without crevices or deadlegs and fully self draining
• New valve design for easy operation, maintenance and filter integrity testing
• Variants for integration into automated systems
• Wide range of connection options
• Cartridge retained by built-in flanges and double O-ring seal
• Housings accept up to four cartridge sizes for flexibility
• Every housing supplied with a quality certificate and manufactured to ATEX Directive 94/9/EC (Group ll Category 2)
