Chamber bowl separator for protein recovery
Efficiently recover high-value proteins with precise separation, optimizing your biopharmaceutical production by maintaining product purity and integrity throughout the centrifugation process.
Separates and Clarifies Proteins from Mixtures
The PKB 25 and PKB 45 chamber bowl separators from GEA are designed for precise protein recovery in biopharmaceutical and biotech applications. These separators excel by employing a cooled, dual-chamber design that efficiently clarifies liquid-solid mixtures, crucial for producing high-purity monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins, and vaccines. With a processing capacity ranging from 300 to 1,000 liters per hour, they are suitable for both batch and manual operations. Driven by a 3-phase AC motor with frequency converter, these separators feature FDA-compliant seals and high-alloyed stainless steel construction for superior durability and compliance. Integration into your production line is seamless with options for automated pre- and post-filling, turbidity measurement, and ATEX compliance for EX-Zone 2 environments. Maintenance is straightforward with a moveable workbench and available spare bowls for quicker processing turns. Suitable for the pharmaceutical, biotech, food, beverage, and chemical industries, these separators ensure high yields and consistent performance in protein processing facilities.
