Cross Flow Membrane Filtration
Description:
This is available in two basic configurations. The standard is the simplest system. It uses a high pressure stainless steel piston pump to circulate product from a feed vessel to the filtration assembly with simple on/off control. A backpressure valve is used to adjust the transmembrane pressure with a maximum allowable system pressure of 40 bar (analogue pressure indicator). As standard the filtration assembly works with polymer membrane filters (90mm diameter) and sample filters are included for microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO). A wider range of filters are available on request.
Features:
- Variable retentate cross flow velocity over the filtration membrane
- Data logging of filtration pressure, permeate mass, retentate flow rate, retentate temperature
- Electronic balance to measure filtration performance
- Buffer addition / Diafiltration capabilities
- Optional retentate temperature control with operating temp range of 5-60 °C
Technical Specification:
- Vessel volume: 1L
- Maximum Operating Pressure: 40 bar
- Retentate control temperature range: 5-60°C
- Filter size: 90mm
