The KrosFlo® KPS Systems automatically control and maintain critical operational parameters defined by the operator during pilot and large-scale cell culture perfusion. While traditional stainless steel systems need to be cleaned in place (CIP) or steamed in place (SIP) prior to use, the KrosFlo® KPS Systems are integrated with sterile ProConnex Flow Paths for easy ready-to-operate tangential flow perfusion.
KrosFlo® KPS Systems are set up on a mobile cart that supports the hollow fiber filter module, an integrated ProConnex® flow path, and an integrated TFF system that automatically controls and maintains critical operational parameters (Recirculation Shear Rate, TMP control, Permeate Flow/VVD and Reactor Volume Maintenance). Robust integrated solutions and associated connections minimize the hold up volume and provides a completely drainable process loop.
Hollow fiber filter, configurable ProConnex® flow path, complete TFF system mounted on a mobile cart
Fully integrated with sterile,custom-engineered ProConnex® flow path
Compatible with KrosFlo® TFF perfusion systems from process development to commercial manufacturing
Repligen develops and manufactures products for the biopharmaceutical industry under an ISO 9001 quality management system. We focus on the timely delivery of high quality, consistent and robust products, to ensure business continuity for our customers.
Unique to Repligen, the KrosFlo® Back Pressure Control Valve is key to integrating and automating the TFF process, reducing operator process management time and TFF processing time.
Enhanced through an engineering design process, ProConnex® Flow Paths are customized, configurable and complete assemblies for tangential flow filtration. Designed for use with hollow fiber and/or flat sheet TFF systems, the assemblies are sterile, fit for upstream or downstream processing and manufactured in compliance with ISO guidelines in an ISO 7 clean room.
