Differential pressure sensor SciLog® SciPres® series

membranefor pharmaceutical applicationsprocess

The SciLog® SciPres combines pressure sensing capabilities and the convenience of disposability with easy set up. Each sensor is pre-programmed with a unique ID for easy traceability and data documentation when combined with the SciLog® SciDoc software. Factory calibration data is also stored on each sensor’s chip for out-of-box plug and play use. Features & Benefits • Each sensor is pre-calibrated and has a unique sensor ID making it NIST traceable and suitable for single-use GMP applications • Validated for exposure to gamma irradiation, autoclave and sodium hydroxide sterilization • Available in 5 different sizes for full scaleability throughout process development Careful monitoring and control of pressure is essential for the efficiency and safety of several units of operation within a biopharmaceutical manufacturing process. SciPres pressure sensors can measure and document pressure in a range of filtration, separation and purification applications, for example: • Trans-membrane pressure (TMP) control in tangential flow/cross flow filtration operations is crucial in optimizing product yields. • Critical normal flow filtrations such as virus filtration, final sterilizing filtration or mycoplasma removal from cell culture media are validated in the process to remove micro-organisms at a given differential pressure (dP) which must be maintained. • Cross-column pressure measurement in chromatography operations monitors blockage preventing column or resin damage. • The pressure across a centrifuge can be used as an indication of unit throughput.
