Pharmaceutical separator for high solid contents
Ensure optimal purity in biopharmaceutical processing with a separator designed for handling high solid content and shear-sensitive products, guaranteeing gentle yet efficient separation critical to maintaining product integrity in cell therapies and vaccine formulations.

Separates and Purifies Biopharmaceutical Liquids
The GEA Pharma Separator Pure is engineered specifically for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, providing a solution for the separation and purification of high-value, shear-sensitive products such as vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, and cell therapies. This centrifugal separator operates with a unique hydrohermetic feed design, which minimizes product stress by gently accelerating the liquid within the filled bowl, ensuring optimal yield and quality. The system offers seamless adjustment capabilities during production, allowing for precision handling of diverse solid and liquid formulations without the need for machine modifications.
Designed to meet the demands of continuous, high-speed operations, the GEA Pharma Separator Pure integrates effortlessly into existing production lines with its optimized plug-and-produce pharma skids. Available in various bowl sizes to accommodate different process capacities, the equipment is also equipped with an Integrated Direct Drive (IDD) system to ensure high cleanroom class standards while reducing mechanical wear.
Manufactured to comply with industry regulations, the separator features automatic Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems, ASME-BPE compliance options, and gap-free welded disk spacers, enhancing both cleanability and validation processes. Its skid design is tailored to provide maximum safety and yield, supporting customization and engineering support to address specific process requirements.
