Abstract
A method for providing an integrity test of a double filter capsule can include providing the double filter capsule in such a way that in a filtration process the medium to be filtered flows in its flow direction from an upstream chamber in the housing through a first filter into an intermediate chamber between the first filter and a second filter and then through the second filter to an outlet. The housing can have an upstream-chamber access point for feeding a test fluid into the upstream chamber and an intermediate-chamber access point for feeding the test fluid into the intermediate chamber. Additional steps can include providing a connecting line between the upstream-chamber access point and the intermediate-chamber access point and determining the state of integrity of the double filter capsule on the basis of at least two test phases.
