  • Page 18: Flushing And Cleaning

    www.sigma-aldrich.com Flushing and Cleaning NOTE The following flushing and cleaning recommendations are based on three cassettes in series. These recommendations are guidelines. Actual flushing and cleaning volumes and operating conditions depend on the membrane type, cutoff, and screen used, as well as the applied flow rate and retentate pressure.
  • Page 19: Cleaning

    Pellicon Single Pass TFF Accessories Installation and User Guide ® Cleaning To select a cleaning method, identify the application or suspected foulant from the Cleaning Conditions section of the appropriate cassette user guide. Select the cleaning agent or agents compatible with the membrane type and application requirements.
  • Page 20: Sanitization

    www.sigma-aldrich.com Sanitization Sanitization should always be performed after the membrane has been thoroughly cleaned and flushed to reduce bioburden. Sanitization pressures, feed flow rates and volumes are identical to those used for cleaning. See the Cleaning procedure. Select a sanitization agent from the appropriate user guide.
  • Page 21: Depyrogenation

    Pellicon Single Pass TFF Accessories Installation and User Guide ® Depyrogenation Depyrogenation should only be performed after the system has been cleaned, sanitized, and flushed. Depyrogenation feed flow rate, pressure and volumes are identical to those used for cleaning. See Cleaning. Water for injection should be used during depyrogenation.
  • Page 22: Integrity Testing

    www.sigma-aldrich.com Integrity Testing The module integrity should be tested on a cleaned and thoroughly flushed system. The presence of residual cleaning agents can significantly alter integrity test results. Integrity testing should be performed on a water-wet membrane only. 1. Ensure that the system is thoroughly cleaned and that the membrane is thoroughly wetted.
  • Page 23 Pellicon Single Pass TFF Accessories Installation and User Guide ® 8. Compare the measured air flow rate to the specified flow value in the Certificate of Quality of the appropriate cassette. If the measured air flow rate is equal to or less than the maximum specified value, the cassette may be used for processing.
  • Page 24: Measurement Of Normalized Water Permeability (Nwp)

    www.sigma-aldrich.com Measurement of Normalized Water Permeability (NWP) The normalized water permeability (NWP) for Pellicon Cassette ® membranes should be established prior to the first use of each filter. New membranes should be cleaned, flushed, and integrity tested before measuring NWP. The NWP measured at this point is used as a benchmark against subsequent NWP measurements to determine cleaning efficacy.
  • Page 25 Pellicon Single Pass TFF Accessories Installation and User Guide ® Open the permeate line of the cassette being measured and close the permeate lines of the cassettes not being measured. Use the retentate valve to adjust the outlet pressure of the cassette being measured.
  • Page 26 www.sigma-aldrich.com There may be an initial NWP decline after initial use and exposure to cleaning solutions. Stable NWP from run to run is achievable thereafter until the membrane starts to reach the end of life, at which point a steady change in NWP will usually be observed and process performance measurements such as process time, permeate flux or product yield are affected.
  • Page 27: Storage

    Pellicon Single Pass TFF Accessories Installation and User Guide ® Storage After the system has been thoroughly cleaned, flushed, and tested, it can be stored until needed for processing. Storage pressures, feed flow rates, and volumes are identical to those used for cleaning. Refer to the appropriate user guide for storage solutions.
