allows for filtration with no need for pre-
filtration even for high solids loading and
high viscosity media. The Free Flow Plate™
element has an integrated and open
permeate channel design. Thus, the
retentate as well as the permeate can be
drained completely and with a minimum of
product loss.
The combination of the Free Flow Plate™
and the Vibro® technology provides very
gentle processing. A conventional
circulation pump can damage cells,
molecules etc. during operation. By
eliminating the circulation pump Vibro-I
has become the most product gentle
industrial scale microfiltration and
ultrafiltration system on the market.
The elimination of the circulation pump
also gives you virtually the same trans
membrane pressures throughout the unit.
These uniform conditions allows for unique
process control unlike any other industrial
membrane system.
The Vibro-I is fully drainable of both
retentate and permeate resulting in
minimal product loss and faster CIP cycles.
The Vibro-I range is a modular design
based on the 2.5 m² Free Flow Plate™
module HP1. A Vibro-I unit consists of one
or more assembled HP1 modules mounted
on a Vibro-drive. Vibro-drives for single
membrane assemblies are available from
2.5 m² to 20 m² membrane area.
Additionally, 40 m² and 80 m² units are
available using a larger Vibro-drive that
holds 4 membrane assemblies.
For larger scale applications the Vibro-units
can be connected in series and/or parallel
according to the individual process layout.
The highly compact configuration and the
elimination of circulation pumps, cooling
aggregates, booster pumps and intricate
piping layout gives the Vibro-I systems a
small footprint. All media contacting parts
are in durable polymeric materials or
stainless steel.
The Vibro-I can conform to GMP/FDA/EC
regulations for materials in contact with
food and other sanitary standards on
request.
