Summary

Product identification

This document describes ROMIPRO 1” Hollow Fiber Ultrafiltration Cartridges, specifically designed for pharmaceutical applications.

  • Membrane Polymer: Polysulfone
  • Housing Construction: Polysulfone
  • Seal/Potting Material: Proprietary Epoxy Compound
  • Storage Solution: Glycerin
  • Regulatory Information:
    • All cartridge components in contact with the process fluid have passed USP Class VI test guidelines.
    • A certificate of quality is included with each cartridge.
    • Change control notification procedures apply.
  • Membrane Characteristics: ROMIPRO cartridges are intended for filtration of pharmaceutical water and intermediates, providing separation in the range of 10,000 to 500,000 Daltons. These are crossflow-type filters designed to minimize solids cake buildup, offering stable productivity, ease of cleaning, and reliable operation at low operating pressure.

Operating limits

  • Maximum Inlet Pressure: 40 psi (2.8 bar) or 100 psi (if permeate side is pressurized)
  • Maximum Transmembrane Pressure: 35 psi (2.4 bar)
  • Maximum Operating Temperature (at pH 6.0): 140°F (60°C)
  • Maximum Permeate Side Back Pressure: 20 psi (1.4 bar)
  • Maximum Differential Pressure (Feed Side): 30 psi (2.1 bar)
  • Allowable pH (Operating): 1.5 – 13.0 @ 130°F (54°C)
  • Maximum Cleaning Temperature: 130°F (54°C)
  • Allowable pH (Cleaning): 1.5 to 13.0
  • Maximum Total Chlorine (During Cleaning): 200 ppm @ pH 10-10.5, 130°F (54°C); 0 ppm @ pH < 9.5
  • Chemical Oxidants: While not recommended for daily use, exposure to chemical oxidants may be necessary for thorough cleaning and sanitization. Potassium metabisulfite (without catalyst such as cobalt) is the preferred chemical to eliminate residual chlorine or similar oxidizers prior to processing.
  • Lubricants: For cartridge installation, use only water or glycerin to lubricate seals. Petroleum or vegetable-based oils or solvents may damage the cartridge and void the warranty.

Mechanical / hydraulic
