  SINGLE-USE EFFICIENCY

Unparalleled process and cost efficiencies

TangenX® SIUS® Single-use Cassettes are the first purpose-built cassettes designed for tangential flow filtration. Deploying these innovative cassettes can help reduce filter cost by 80%, reduce labor costs by 50%, and reduce buffer and water usage by 75% when compared to traditional reusable cassettes.

Diverse options for diverse process needs

SIUS® TFF Cassettes are offered with two membrane chemistries, two screen types, a wide selection of molecular weight cutoffs (MWCO), and a broad range of surface areas. With 96 configurations available, SIUS  TFF Cassettes accommodate diverse process requirements for ultrafiltration and diafiltration applications from process development to commercial manufacturing.

ProStream Membrane

  • Neutral charge
  • Low protein binding
  • Excellent chemical resistance

HyStream Membrane

  • Hydrophilic
  • Low protein binding
  • minimal fouling with hydrophobic species

Multiple channel configurations

Tangential flow filtration cassettes create turbulence at the membrane's surface and minimize fouling. The result is an increase in performance with a higher permeate flux. SIUS® Cassettes are offered in three different channel configurations to best suit the application. The channel configuration refers to the type of turbulence promoter incorporated into the feed channel of a cassette.

01

A medium channel or L screen is offered in all TangenX® SIUS® Cassette formats. The screen creates turbulence at the membrane's surface ensuring outstanding permeate flux with minimal fouling. This channel configuration requires the lowest pumping rate and yields the highest cross flow velocity. This type of channel is best suited for clarified feed streams over a wide range of viscosities.

02

A coarser screen channel, the EP channel is offered in all TangenX® SIUS® Cassettes. The screen geometry of this single-use cassette can process feed streams with a higher viscosity and reduce the overall pressure drop. It is scalable from 100cm2 to 2.5m2, packaged sanitized and compatible with existing cassette holders and FPIs. This type of channel is best suited for processes that use shear sensitive feed streams.

03

An open channel or J channel is offered in all TangenX® SIUS® Cassettes. A 0.5mm flow spacer separating the membrane creates an open feed flow channel. This type of channel creates the least amount of turbulence while still minimizing fouling. It also requires the highest pumping rate to pass particulates. This type of channel is best suited for unclarified feed streams and is used for processes such as cell harvest operation.

Compatible with most cassette holders

To ensure fit with cassette holders from other manufacturers, SIUS® TFF Cassettes for process development are offered with two different notch patterns at the end of the cassette.

 

TangenX® SIUS® PD with standard notch
0.850in (21.59mm) Offset

This format fits the following cassette clamps and holders:

  • TangenX® SIUS® PD Cassette Clamps
  • TangenX® PRO PD Cassette Holders
  • Pall - Centramate Holder (CM018LV, FS001K10)

TangenX® SIUS® PD with offset notch
0.756in (19.21mm) Offset

This format fits the following cassette clamps and holders:

  • This format fits the following third part cassette holders:
  • Sartorius - Sartocon Slice holder (17525-01, 17521-02)
  • GE - Kvick Lab Holder (KLPH01SSU, KLHR0105000SS)
  • Millipore - Pellicon Mini Holder (XX42PMINI)
  SCALABLE

Scalable from process development to commercial scale

Process volume and membrane area determine scale-up from SIUS® Single-use Cassettes to PRO Reusable TFF Cassettes.

 

 

Single-use TFF provides the greatest benefit for small to moderate scale operations.
Reusable TFF is optimal for large production scale operations.

When the primary membrane candidate has already been chosen as a process parameter, the production method needs to be verified and production materials produced for toxicology or pre-clinical trials, and ultimately for large-scale commercial production. SIUS® Single-use TFF Cassettes provide reliable cassette-to-cassette consistency, ensuring that processes can scale to commercial production levels.
