Meissner adds that this configurable system is optimised for clarification through sterile filtration applications and effectively makes the scale of single-use filters unlimited.Designed with the flexibility to incorporate UltraCap® H.D. filter capsules from 25.4-127cm (10-50 inches), UltraSnap™ assemblies maximise processing and scale-up possibilities. Optimised designs can accommodate processing requirements for flow capacity, throughput volume, and retention efficiencies. The UltraSnap™ filter assembly arrives as a pre-assembled unit, ready for immediate use. The assembly can be ordered pre-sterilised for added convenience.Meissner says that the UltraSnap™ filter assembly eliminates the time and expense associated with change-out of filters from stainless steel housings and the associated cleaning and reassembly of the filter/housing unit(s). This time saved from cleaning operations results in less downtime between filtration runs, and improved productivity. The UltraSnap™ filter assembly has very low hold-up volume, which minimises product loss during change-outs and ensures maximum product recovery. Support stands and carts can be designed to integrate the UltraSnap™ filter assembly into the end-user’s unit operations.
