Investigator
WaterSep's membranes are manufactured using a unique combination of modified polyethersulfone (PES) and a proprietary spinning process. The result is a filter that exhibits exceptional chemical and physical properties. The antifouling properties of the membrane make it ideal for most applications involving lipids, as well as antifoam agents commonly used in fermentation broths. PES also meets the strictest regulatory requirements of biopharmaceutical processing. WaterSep membranes have a unique void-free structure, which is significanly stronger than competitive "finger void" membranes. This structure results in a stronger cartridge with a longer surface life and significanly lower risk for fiber breakage and product loss. The membrane also has a very high water and process permeability, resulting in higher process capacity and lower cost of ownership.
The Investigator hollow fiber cartridges are an excellent product line for pilot and mid- sized batch volumes up to 100L. WaterSep also offers for this series with the exact same fluid path length, as the Explorer and the Producer, enabling easy and reliable process scale-down and scale-up. The investigator is ideal for all type of cross-flow applications in food and beverage, biopharmaceutical and industrial markets. Recommended batch volume per cartridge 1-10L or 2- 5L/h.
