Aseptic separator for high solid content in biopharma

Ensure high yield and optimal purity in biopharmaceuticals with this advanced aseptic separator, designed for efficient handling of shear-sensitive products and seamless integration into your continuous production line.

Separates and Purifies Biopharmaceutical Liquids

The GEA pharma separator aseptic N is a cutting-edge nozzle separator designed for pharmaceutical and biotech applications, offering smooth handling and high separation performance. This equipment addresses the challenge of preserving the integrity of shear-sensitive biopharmaceutical products, such as vaccines and monoclonal antibodies, through its hydrohermetic inlet and optimized bowl design. Accommodating up to 35 vol% solids, the separator ensures efficient processing of liquid formulations, enabling maximum yield with its adaptable flexicon nozzle bowl.

Equipped with an Integrated Direct Drive (IDD) system, the separator delivers high cleanroom class compatibility with reduced wear and maintenance due to fewer moving parts. The automatic SIP/CIP capabilities streamline cleaning, meeting stringent ASME BPE standards for hygiene and compliance. Ideal for continuous, high-speed operations, the GEA pharma separator integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, with its skid offering flexible capacity options to suit different process requirements.

Benefits

  • Enhances product integrity by gently handling shear-sensitive biopharmaceuticals.
  • Increases yield with adaptable outlet concentration control during production.
  • Minimizes contamination risk with automatic sterile-in-place (SIP) and clean-in-place (CIP) processes.
  • Decreases maintenance demands due to direct drive technology with fewer wear parts.
  • Ensures regulatory alignment with ASME BPE-compliant design.
