FlexStand benchtop pilot scale systems are compact, sanitary hollow fiber ultrafiltration/microfiltration systems for laboratory through pilot scale applications. These cross flow systems are designed for fast, efficient concentration and/or diafiltration of a wide range of biological solutions in process volumes from five to 100 liters. The systems accommodate a wide range of Cytiva cartridges with various housing sizes, pore sizes, lumen diameters and membrane areas.
The FlexStand system is offered in two different configurations:
- Standard system with 1.5-in Tri-Clamp fittings for larger surface area cartridges (housing sizes 5, 6, 8, 9, 35, and 55). This unit has a minimal working volume of approximately one to two liters depending on choice of recirculation pump and actual piping setup.
- Low void volume system with 0.75-in Tri-Clamp fittings for smaller surface area cartridges (housing sizes 3M, 3X2M, 4M, 4X2M, 5, and 6). The minimum working volume for this system is in the 400- to 500-ml range.
Within these configurations, both stand-alone and complete systems with rotary lobe pumps are offered. An optional peristaltic recirculation pump is also available as well as different reservoir sizes.
