FUNDALOOP® Single-Use Filter - Multicycle

Introducing our patented and innovative product, a Single-Use Type Filter, the FUNDALOOP® with outstanding multicycle operation capability. The FUNDALOOP®, consists of large surface area filter elements, packed into a fully contained plastic enclosure. It is a clever alternative for disposable filter cartridges for harvest and purification in biopharmaceutical processes. The increased surface area boosts the filtration efficiency and results in a higher throughput. All exposed plastic surfaces are pre-sterilised and validated which makes CIP/SIP redundant. The filter bag is installed in a pressure vessel during filtration. This design opens the possibility to compress the filter bag by applying an external pressure, resulting in very low liquid heel. The unique design allows for a number of cycles, where the cake can be back-flushed and accumulated on the bottom of the bag. Finally, the compressed bag including the solid waste is in very compact form and can be removed and safely disposed of. The aim was the development of a disposable filter solution for industries dealing with sterility and hazardous products. One of the main benefits is that time and energy consuming cleaning and sterilisation procedures are no longer required. Other benefits of Single-Use Systems are shorter Time to Market cycles, reduced plant footprint, substantially lower CAPEX and decreased time for changeover resulting in a higher output.
