Autoclave Sterilization2
Autoclave: 5 x 0.5-hour cycles at 125°C (257°F)
2 The autoclave life was determined by testing under controlled laboratory conditions up to the time indicated. Actual operating conditions may affect the filter capsule's resistance to autoclave sterilization and service. Filter capsules should be qualified for each process. These filter capsules should not be exposed to gamma irradiation.
Warning: This product must not be sterilized in-situ by passing steam through under pressure. Integrity should be verified after each autoclave cycle before use.
