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

Filter Grade: X0SP

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

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.
