Feed system for pilot-scale microfiltration and ultrafiltration applications
Optimize your small-scale production with a versatile feed system designed for efficient microfiltration and ultrafiltration, ensuring precise separation and concentration in R&D or continuous operations.
The Vibro-I Feed System from SANI Membranes is a compact and sanitary solution for efficient microfiltration and ultrafiltration processes, integrating seamlessly into laboratory, pilot, and small-scale production environments. Designed to support industries such as biotech and dairy, it effectively processes liquids like monoclonal antibody solutions and milk proteins. The system can handle feed volumes starting from 50 liters with its plug-and-play design, which includes an intuitive HMI for easy operation and datalogging.
It employs a versatile operation mode—either continuous ‘mix flow’ for homogenous concentration management or ‘over tank’ for batch processing, adapting to high viscosity and solid loads. Built for GMP traceability and regulatory compliance, all components in media contact adhere to FDA and EC 1935/2004 standards. Stainless steel construction ensures durability and corrosion resistance, while its mobile frame simplifies integration into various production sites. The system supports connections to Vibro-I units ranging from 2.5 to 20 m², making it suitable for a range of applications from algae processing to pharma-grade filtration.
