SWECO PharmASep™ Filter/Dryers were designed for the aseptic batch filtration and washing of pharmaceutical solids and for their further dewatering and drying. All processes are completed within the sealed chamber without any need for intermediate transfer, handling, or exposure to the external environment.
The PharmASep™ uses gentle, patented Vibro-Energy motion to promote fluid separation at low differential pressures. The motion is then combined with nitrogen purge to fluidize the bed of solids for gentle, efficient drying. No mechanical stirring devices are required. Solids are generally
discharged as a flow-able powder with consistent dryness and free of lumps.
Additional features are as follows:
*Chamber design is crevice-free and fully-drainable
