Sartorius, 5628304E2--SO, Sartoclean® CA | T-Style Maxicaps® | 0.8µm | 20"

Effective Filtration Area: 0.6 m² - 1.8 m²
Pore Size: 3 µm prefilter | 0.8 µm final filter
Membrane Material: Cellulose Acetate
Sterilization: Delivered sterile (Autoclaved)

The Sartoclean® family is a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane based prefilter. These filters are optimized for the protection of downstream equipment and Sartobran® cellulose acetate final filters.
Main Applications
Since the Sartoclean® CA filters have an excessively low binding cellulose acetate membrane, they are commonly used for membrane prefiltration of:
Plasma
Vaccines
mAb
Diagnostics
Purified protein solutions
Biological fluids
Preservative solvents
Benefits
Highest product yields
Ultra-low unspecific binding membrane
More economical process flow
Increased total throughput performance
Membrane
Sartoclean® CA uses a heterogeneous double-layer membrane made of cellulose acetat. The "built-in pre-filtration" results in the highest possible total flow, so that a filter change during filtration is avoided.
Cost savings:
The use of disposable filter elements eliminates the need to invest in stainless steel filter housings. Additional costs for housing cleaning and cleaning validation are eliminated.
Flexibility
Sartoclean® CA filters are available in a wide range of filtration areas from 4.5 cm² up to 1.8 m² and with a variety of commonly used connections to ensure easy integration into your process regardless of batch size.
Scale Up:
Consistent and predictable scale-up and scale-down procedures can be safely performed because all Sartoclean® CA filter elements are manufactured with the same membrane type, support fleeces and construction materials.
Sterilization
Sartoclean® CA filters have been developed for sterilization using autoclaving at 134°C | 2bar or in-line-steaming (Only filter cartridges).
Quality:
Every single element is tested for integrity to meet the highest quality requirements.
Documentation:
Sartoclean® CA filters have been designed, developed and produced in accordance with the ISO 9001 certified quality management system. A validation manual is available in accordance with regulatory requirements.
