Single-Use Biopharm Pressure Sensors - SciLog® SciPres®

Brand: SciLog, Inc

SciLog® SciPres® scalable pressure sensors are designed for incorporation into single-use purification platforms, available in five sizes. 

Pre-calibrated and gamma stable, calibration and identity information is stored on the sensor's chip.
Features
  • Careful monitoring and control of pressure is essential for the efficiency and safety of several units of operation within a biopharmaceutical manufacturing process. SciPres® pressure sensors, part of Parker Domnick Hunter's SciLog® range of pre-calibrated, single-use sensors, can measure and document pressure in a range of filtration, separation and purification applications:
  • Trans-membrane pressure (TMP) control in tangential flow/cross flow filtration operations is crucial in optimizing product yields.
  • Critical normal flow filtrations such as virus filtration, final sterilizing filtration or mycoplasma removal from cell culture media are validated in the process to remove micro-organisms at a given differential pressure (dP) which must be maintained.
  • Cross-column pressure measurement in chromatography operations monitors blockage preventing column or resin damage.
  • The pressure across a centrifuge can be used as an indication of unit throughput.
  • Monitoring pressure can also prevent a system integrity breach protecting operators from potential exposure to potent molecules or acids and bases.
  • Each SciPres® pressure sensor is pre-calibrated and has a unique sensor ID making it NIST traceable and suitable for single-use GMP applications. The pre-calibration and sensor ID information are stored on the sensor's chip. The sensors are validated for exposure to gamma irradiation, autoclave and sodium hydroxide sterilization.
  • SciPres® pressure sensors are available with Luer, 3/8” Barb, 1/2” Barb, 3/4" Tri-Clover and 1” Tri-Clover 'Ladish' for full scalability throughout process development.
