Sartorius Lab Instruments GmbH & Co. KG Sartocon®Slice Stainless Steel Holder 17521---002

Sartocon® Slice Stainless Steel Holder Low hold-up volume Crossflow holder for Sartocon Slice cassettes Sartocon® Slice Holder The Sartocon® Slice stainless steel holder is optimized for the use with up to five Slice Crossflow cassettes (0.1-0.5 m²). It is designed for low to medium volume applications from 1-100 L. Target use: Process development Pre-clinical trials Clinical trials Scaling studies Pilot scale and small volume production Sartocon® Slice cassettes have a surface area of 0.1 m² each and are available with Polyethersulfone and Hydrosart membrane types. The filter holder can be thermally sterilized by autoclaving or inline steaming if the pressure compensation tools are used. Typical applications for Sartocon® Slice covers the whole range of pharmaceutical and biotechnological crossflow applications like concentration and diafiltration of proteins, vaccines, viruses, antibodies, oligo nucleotides, endotoxin removal etc. The system is suitable for cell harvesting and clarification processes. The Sartocon® Slice Filter holder features the latest advances in crossflow design: Vertical orientation Self-draining system Low minimal hold-up volume Monolithic design Large retentate channels cGMP construction and operation The Sartocon® Slice cassette (filter area: 0.1 m²) has the same hydrodynamic flow path design and identical materials like the larger Sartocon® Cassette (Hydrosart 0.6 m², PESU 0.7 m²). This unique design within the Sartocon® family provides the user with predictable performance for scaling studies. The Slice holder completes the Slice cassette in an ideal way and gives the perfect tool for every low volume crossflow application. The Slice holder has sanitary tri-clamp connections. This ensures a safe and reliable connection to other equipment. The feed and retentate ports as well as the two filtrate ports are located on one side. This allows fixed piping and a compact system with low minimum working volume. The adjustable feet guarantee a firm stand of the holder on the bench. Port locations are situated to avoid air locks and to ensure proper cleaning and product recovery.
