Overview
Supracap™ 50 depth filter capsules, part of our Pall filtration portfolio, are designed for process development and can be used to quickly and accurately determine which series and grade of depth filter media will provide the best performance.
- Supracap 50 capsules are designed for developing and optimizing a process during scale-up and scale-down studies.
- Quickly and accurately determine which series and grade of depth filter media will provide the best performance as well as the necessary filtration area required to meet process volume.
- Low hold-up volume allows for increased product recovery for sample filtration of 1 to 3 L
- Offers greater flexibility and assurance of application success from development to pilot and production scale.
- Readily scalable to Supracap 100 capsules, SUPRAdisc™ depth filter modules and Stax™ depth filter capsules.
- Available with a wide selection of Seitz™ depth filter media for optimal grade selection.
Applications
- Cell harvesting
- Clarification of fermentation broth
- Antibiotics
- Serum
- Blood products
- Vaccines
- Plant extracts
Depth filter media
Supracap™ 50 capsules are available with a wide selection of Seitz depth filter media for optimal grade selection.
P-series
Seitz P-series depth filter sheets were specifically developed for the strict requirements in biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries. Manufactured with stringent in-process control methods assures consistent filtration quality, a very high purity of filter medium, and alignment with the requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.

HP-series
Seitz HP-series depth filter sheets are comprised of two distinct layers of Seitz P-series depth filter sheets; a coarser layer upstream followed by a finer layer downstream. These performance-enhanced depth filter sheets have been designed for use in low viability, high solids containing applications. As small shifts in process conditions can cause dramatic differences in filtration requirements, the flexibility of combining any combination of Seitz P-series media in a Seitz HP-series format allows for improved process optimization.
Activated carbon filters
Supracap™ 50 capsules are also available as part of the scalable activated carbon filter range, incorporating Seitz AKS filter media in 9 different grades of carbon.
Filter selection
The Supracap™ capsule product range can be found in the product table below. You can use the filters at the top of each column to narrow your search based on the following criteria.
- Retention rate
- Filtration area
- Depth filter type
Please look at the brochure to review all possible filter options that you may require.
We are on-hand to provide support with your filter selection for your process.
