Product catalog summary
Overview
SepraPor® XFC is a tangential flow filtration capsule featuring microporous hollow fibers, available as standalone filters or as part of gamma-sterilized assemblies. These filters come in pore sizes of 0.1 µm, 0.2 µm, and 0.45 µm, and are designed for scalability across various lengths and diameters.
Applications
These filters are suitable for biopharmaceutical applications such as bacterial, mammalian, and yeast cell concentration, high productivity harvest, and continuous cell culture perfusion.
Materials of Construction
The filters are constructed from polysulfone for the membrane, outer sleeve, permeate and retentate ports, and end caps, with polypropylene bundle netting and epoxy fiber potting.
Features and Benefits
  • Discrete separation between micron ratings ensures distinct performance.
  • Consistent structural properties allow for repeatable performance.
  • Scalable from lab to production scale.
  • Micron rating confirmed by bubble point and flux analysis.
  • Integrity tested before release.
  • Compatible with autoclave or gamma sterilization.
Filter Capsule Dimensions
Available in various diameters and lengths, with effective filtration areas ranging from 0.011 m² to 4.4 m².
Operating Characteristics
  • Temperature range: 0 °C to 38 °C, with a maximum of 50 °C for short-term operations.
  • Maximum transmembrane pressure varies by pore size, from 0.69 bar to 1.38 bar at 25 °C.
Sterilization Conditions
Filters can be autoclaved at 121 °C for 30 minutes or gamma sterilized. Gradual temperature and pressure changes are recommended during autoclaving.
Ordering Information
Filters are available in various sizes and configurations, with part numbers indicating specific dimensions and pore sizes.
Quality Assurance
Each filter comes with a Certificate of Conformance, and manufacturing processes are audited for compliance with quality standards.

Filter Capsule Dimensions Fiber I.D.: 1.0 mm Filter Length Effective Filtration Area (EFA) SepraPor® membrane porosity is characterized by the bubble point and corresponding clean water flux. Every SepraPor® lot is tested for bubble point and flux to confirm that its pore size rating falls within specifications. Each individual filter is integrity tested by pressurizing the filter up to its bubble point value. Each finished SepraPor® filter is clearly marked with filter type, lot number, and serial number for traceability. Bubble Point in 60/40% IPA/Water Normalized Water Flux* LMH/bar @ 25 °C...
