Description

General description

The Millistak+^® HC Pro Pod Depth Filter (high capacity synthetic media) is a synthetic depth filter providing a cleaner and more consistent depth filtration media over current diatomaceous earth (DE) and cellulose (CE) based filter offerings. This unit, featured in a Process Scale Pod format with a X0SP media grade, supports primary and secondary clarification as well as downstream filtration applications.

Application

Secondary clarification following primary clarification or primary clarification depth filter.

Features and Benefits

Synthetic materials of construction

• Reduce TOC extractables and pre-use flush volume requirements by 50%
• No beta glucans to interfere with limulous amoebocyte lysate (LAL) testing for bacterial endotoxins
• Lot to lot consistency for successful development and implementation of robust clarification processes

Depth filter media formulation & design

• Provide as much as two times the filtration capacity with equivalent filter retention properties over commercial DE-based benchmarks
• Improved HCP impurity clearance

Disposable Pod device

• Flexible, modular format offers scalability from 5 to 12,000 liters or more
• Robust device format; easy to use and set up

Specifications

Filter Grade: X0SP

Trace metals were measured post pure water flush of 50 L/m² of surface area and 24-hour static soak in pure water. Values based on average of metals extractibles data from three separate uPod device lots. The analysis was made by ICP-MS. The devices were not autoclaved.

Preparation Note

Sterilization Method
Integrity is maintained after 1 autoclave cycle of 60 min @ 123 ºC. Filtration performance may be impacted post autoclave. Recommended for post use decontamination only.

Analysis Note

Product Water Conductivity at 25°C: after a pure water flush 50 L/m² (5 liter per ft²) of media surface area (300 LMH, 10 min). At the end of the flush, a sample was pulled for conductivity measurement. Devices were not autoclaved.
