Porvair designs double layered membrane filter for the wine industry

17 June 2010

The Vinofil membrane cartridge has been specifically designed for wine and sparkling wine filtration, as a final filter for cold biological stabilisation.

Vinofil from Porvair incorporates a prefiltration and final membrane layer of naturally hydrophilic polyethersulphone (PES) with a mirrored asymmetric pore structure. Incorporation of the prefilter membrane considerably extends the life of the final layer, therefore producing longer on-stream life and improved economics compared to traditional double layer filters. When combined with all-polypropylene components and high integrity manufacturing techniques, the Vinofil filter cartridge is ideally suited to the most demanding process conditions.

Vinofil cartridges are manufactured using components made from non-toxic and biologically inert raw materials. Multiple length cartridges with industry standard adapter styles are produced to fit most housing designs and system sizes. All materials are traceable and CFR 21 listed for direct food contact. Cartridges are constructed in a clean room under tightly controlled conditions using advanced, highly specialized machinery. Quality and consistency of product is assured by the ISO quality control and manufacturing procedures, which are in place throughout all stages of manufacture.
