Sartorius Vivaflow™ 200 Module

Description

• Vivaflow™ 200 is a ready to use and reusable laboratory crossflow cassette for concentrating up to 5 L samples.
• The membrane surface per device is 200 cm².
• One unit comes with all necessary accessories for running the device with a laboratory pump and a size 16 pump head.
• For speeding up the concentration, two cassettes can be run simultaneously.
• Vivaflow™ 200 is optimally suited for applications like cell culture supernatant concentration, virus concentration and water concentration e.g. in fish breeding facilities.
• This economical product offers a standard of ease of use, reliability and flexibility unrivalled by any laboratory filtration system in the market.
• The thin-channel, flip-flow recirculation path of the modules provides high crossflow velocities with minimum pump speed requirements.
• A single 200 cm² module typically concentrates 1 L by a factor of 50 in less than 30 min. Alternatively, two Vivaflow™ 200 Modules can be used in parallel for concentration of 5 L in under 75 minutes.
• Near total recovery of the concentrate is achieved with a single final rinse.
• Vivaflow™ 200 can be easily cleaned and re-used several times.
• All accessories for sample concentration, except a peristaltic pump with a pump head for size 16 tubing, are included in the package for using a single cassette.
• A 500 mL sealed diafiltration reservoir can be added to the system for rapid and convenient buffer exchange.

Equipment required:

• The standard Vivaflow™ 200 package comes with tubing, pressure indicator, flow restrictor and high pressure pump tubing.
• All you need is a peristaltic pump with a pump head capable of handling 6.4 mm OD tubing (size 16).

Running 2 Vivaflow™ 200 cassettes in parallel:

• For speeding up the concentration, two Vivaflow™ 200 cassettes can easily be connected using a Y connector which is preassembeled with the correct tubing sizes and fittings (size 16 tubing for connecting the two Vivaflow™ 200 units, size 15 tubing for the pump).
• Please note that you need a size 15 pump head for running two Vivaflows™ in parallel.
• High flow rate and recovery.
• Clear housing for process monitoring.
• Ready to use single cassettes.
• Easy set up of 2 cassettes for use in parallel.
• Re-usable product.
