FILTERING UNIT AND METHOD OF SEALING SAME

摘要

A crossflow filter comprising at least one membrane coated filtering units in a filter housing. The joints between the housing and the filtering unit are sealed by means of a gasket or a gasket system comprising an intermediate space. As the intermediate space is connected to the outside, a seal leak can be observed from emerging liquid. Thus, a substrate to be filtered cannot penetrate to the filtrate side as a consequence of a seal failure.
