Some basics behind the CerPhragm pump’s
CerPhragm is the acronym of the patents - a range of AOPD (Air-Operate-Positive-Displayment) Single-Use-Pump's (SUP) either integrated with:
- a Hollow-Fibre-Filter (HFF)
- a perfusion systems as found from PerfuseCell incl the HFF
Designed for super controlled operation by the advanced Clotho, Lachesis or Atropos drive units. Which via the LASER sensor mounted on the SUP measures the free-flowing diaphragm positioned in real-time. The result is a true Positive Displacement (PD) SUP with un-parallel performance and capabilities.
Two variants of the LASER guided scalable diaphragm SUP is currently available:
- ATF operation method – the Thalia A-SUP – Alternating-Tangential-Flow – with no valves
- TFF operation method – the Clio O-SUP – Tangential-Flow-Filtration – with valves
The CerPhragm "Single-Use-Pumps" Clio and Thalia are, as the expression indicated, of single-use capability, manufactured from polymers and not designed to be high temperature autoclaved. But supplied E-beam irradiated in dual foil bags integrating the HFF.
We chose the IPR acronym “CerPhragm”. Patents granted for CerPhragm™ in a range of countries.
