Key Performance Advantages

 

Reduced Validation Workload
100% single-use design entirely removes the requirement for cleaning validation (CIP/SIP) and drastically cuts down changeover documentation.

Lowered Cross-Batch Risk
Zero reuse of fluid-contact components minimizes the risk of product-to-product contamination in multi-product or CMO/CDMO facilities.

Stable Batch Consistency
Every assembly is manufactured under strict quality controls with consistent fluid path geometries to ensure reproducible batch-to-batch filtration performance.

Accelerated Changeover Time
Pre-assembled, ready-to-use configurations minimize setup and installation times prior to a batch run.

Flexible Skid Integration
Readily adaptable to small-scale process development equipment as well as large-scale automated commercial production skids.

 

 

Product Function

 

This single-use system serves as a primary clarification step bridging cell culture/fermentation harvest and downstream purification (such as depth filtration, membrane filtration, or chromatography).
Its primary purpose is to significantly reduce particulate and bioburden load at an early stage, thereby protecting expensive downstream filters and purification columns.

 

 

Typical Operating Conditions

 

This single-use assembly is recommended when the manufacturing process exhibits the following characteristics:
High Upstream Variability: Harvest contains high cell density, high turbidity, or fluctuating/unstable solid loads.
Agile Manufacturing Requirements: Fast batch turnaround times are required, or the facility operates under a multi-product manufacturing model.
Operational Bottlenecks: Cleaning and sterilization validation (CIP/SIP) of reusable stainless-steel housing systems creates regulatory or operational bottlenecks.

 

 

System Configuration Options

 

To ensure seamless integration with various bioreactor and skid designs, assemblies can be customized into multiple formats:
Multi-Stage Clarification Trains: Integrated depth filter + membrane filter combinations.
Capsule-Based Systems: Fully disposable, self-contained capsule configurations for clean handling.
Inline Manifold Assemblies: Integrated tubing networks complete with connectors, sanitary fittings, and pre-installed sensors.
Custom Process Integration: Tailored connections matching specific flow rates, hold-up volume reduction goals, and bioreactor harvest lines.

Connector Standards: Comprehensive range of fittings including TC flanges, quick disconnects, and aseptic connectors.
Process Packaging: Provision of sterile gamma-irradiated packaging or non-sterile bulk configurations.
Manifold Design: Engineering support for multi-stage configurations, integrating single-use sensors or validation sampling ports.

 

 

FAQ

 

Q: Can this system handle high cell density harvest?

A: Yes. It is designed for clarification of high turbidity and cell-rich feeds. Multi-stage configurations improve solids handling capacity.

Q: How is replacement time determined?

A: Replacement is based on differential pressure increase rather than fixed time, depending on process conditions.

Q: Is it suitable for GMP manufacturing?

A: Yes. Materials and production process support GMP environments with traceable documentation.

Q: What causes early clogging?

A: High solids concentration, cell aggregation, or inconsistent upstream harvest conditions can reduce operating time.

Q: Can it be integrated into existing bioprocess skids?

A: Yes. Inline and custom connector options allow integration into most standard systems.

Q: Is sterilization required before use?

A: Gamma-irradiated sterile versions are available. Non-sterile options are also provided depending on process design.

Q: Can it replace depth filter housings?

A: It can be used as an alternative in single-use workflows, but system selection depends on process scale and flow requirements.
