SARTOFLOW® Advanced crossflow filtration systems

Full flexibility and outstanding crossflow filtration performance combined

The SARTOFLOW® Advanced is a modular benchtop crossflow system optimized for ultrafiltration, microfiltration and diafiltration applications used in many downstream processes, such as purification of vaccines, monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins.

The system is suitable for flexible use in laboratory environments for process development and clinical trials as well as for small-scale production batches. Several standardized options are available to enable you to obtain just the right system exactly tailored to meet your individual requirements. The system can also be upgraded with additional options if your requirements change during process development or production.

This Crossflow system is equipped with our proven DCU-4 control unit that readily communicates with Sartorius’ BioPAT® SCADA, MFCS software. The SARTOFLOW® Advanced can be configured to accept either Sartocon® Slice or full-sized Sartocon® cassettes. As a result, this gives you an exceptionally wide range of membrane surface areas. Since all Sartocon® crossflow cassettes have the same hydrodynamic flow path length, the SARTOFLOW® Advanced can be linearly scaled up from 0.1 to 2.1 m2 of membrane area. Its unique compact design has an ultra-low loop volume of ~200 ml, making it possible to concentrate even small process batches.

The SARTOFLOW® Advanced can be run in demanding production environments. Moreover, the unit and its touch screen is built to withstand continuous use in both under laboratory and production conditions.
