Walker Filtration autoclave filters are used to ensure Medical

atmospheric air entering an autoclave is both sterile Veterinary


and safe to use in critical applications. Pharmaceutical

Walker Filtration autoclave filters use high performance


filtration with 100% sterilising efficiency. The air is
required to release the vacuum within the autoclave.
This occurs due to the drying method used.

High efficiency filtration


Manufactured from corrosion resistant materials,
designed to operate in arduous environments, each
filter is supplied with a replaceable pre-filtration sock
providing protection to the high efficiency media.

Designed to meet
the requirements of
BS EN 285
Constructed to an exceptionally high quality standard,
the autoclave filters remove solid and biological particles
down to 0.01 micron. The efficiency exceeds that of
conventional HEPA filters and has been confirmed in
accordance with BS 3928 Sodium Flame Test with a
penetration of less than 0.001%.
