The GPVWBX Capsule Filter features a single-layer hydrophobic PVDF membrane engineered for non-aqueous liquids, compressed air, and gas applications. With broad chemical compatibility and high flow capacity, GPVWBX is ideal for critical vent filtration and solvent filtration where moisture resistance is essential.

As part of our general service product line, GPVWBX offers a reliable and economical option for upstream particle reduction or stand-alone use in less critical processes.
