Key Features and Capabilities
- Automated Filtration & Flow Control: Single-use systems automatically monitor and adjust pressure and flow rates to optimise processing times, maximise filter life, and improve overall efficiency. Automated feedback loops protect filters from over-pressurisation while maintaining consistent throughput.
- User-Selectable Endpoints & Safety Alarms: Operators can set process endpoints and alarms to ensure safe, reliable, and repeatable performance. This reduces the need for constant monitoring and supports walk-away operation during production runs.
- Flexible Filter Compatibility: Open-architecture designs allow the use of a wide variety of filters and membranes, enabling seamless integration into existing workflows and diverse applications.
- Integrated Data Capture & Connectivity: Systems can document real-time process parameters such as pressure, flow, and filtrate volume. They are capable of communicating with plant data systems, historians, or operating as standalone units for full traceability and compliance.
- Gravimetric Precision: Optional integrated scales and mobile container holders enable precise gravimetric control of fluid handling, ensuring accurate measurements for filtration, buffer preparation, or other bioprocessing applications.
- Support for Integrity Testing: Automated single-use systems are designed to facilitate pre-use and post-use filter integrity testing, supporting quality assurance and regulatory compliance.
- Compact, Mobile, & GMP-Compatible: Many systems feature compact footprints and mobile configurations for easy installation and handling in cleanroom environments, minimising contamination risks and optimising workflow efficiency.
Benefits
Automated Single-Use Systems streamline bioprocessing operations by reducing operator workload, improving reproducibility, and ensuring safe, efficient handling of fluids and filtration processes. Their flexible design, integrated automation, and precise monitoring make them ideal for laboratories, pilot plants, and GMP manufacturing environments, supporting reliable scale-up from early-stage development to full-scale production.
