TFF for Pilot scale purification
Designed for 100mL - 500L purification applications, the KrosFlo® KMPi TFF System from Repligen is designed for robust pilot-scale downstream ultrafiltration and microfiltration.
Fully integrated and ready to use out of the box, the KMPi provides consistent and accurate flow rates with a range of 0.01 to 13.0 LPM.
KrosFlo® KMPi TFF SYSTEM
The fully integrated KrosFlo® KMPi TFF System consists of a digital peristaltic pump, multi-language interface with a graphical LCD display digital pressure monitor for automated alarm and shut-off controls, KMPi Pump head, scale for automated alarms and shut-off controls, Automatic Backpressure Valve, module stand, and proprietary KF Comm Software. The KrosFlo® KMPi provides consistent and accurate flow rates with a range of 0.01 to 13.0 LPM.

Automatic Back pressure control Valve
Unique to Repligen, the KrosFlo® Back Pressure Control Valve is key to integrating and automating the TFF process, reducing operator process management time and TFF processing time.
- Automatically adjusts tubing pinch distance according to user-defined set-points for inlet, retentate, permeate or transmembrane pressures (TMP) when attached to the ProConnex® flow path
- Maintains a uniform TMP throughout the process run, decreasing membrane fouling
- Controls the permeate pressure and flow during microfiltration applications
- Releases and tightens the pinch valve as solution viscosity increases or decreases during a process
- Can be set to start pinching from the open, middle, or closed position
- Compatible with tubing sizes 13, 14, 16, 25, HP15, 17, HP24, 18, HP35, 36, and HP36
CONFIGURABLE Pro-Connex® FLOW PATH
Enhanced through an engineering design process, ProConnex® Flow Paths are customized, configurable and complete assemblies for tangential flow filtration. Designed for use with hollow fiber and/or flat sheet TFF systems, the assemblies are sterile, fit for upstream or downstream processing and manufactured in compliance with ISO guidelines in an ISO 7 clean room.
MENU-DRIVEN SOFTWARE FOR OPTIMIZED TFF
KF Comm 2 Software, backward compatible with legacy KrosFlo® KR2i and KrosFlo® KMPi Systems, is conveniently installed on any computer using the Windows Operating System. The software is comptaible with Chrome, Mozilla, Firefox and Microsoft Explorer browsers and is always current with automatic software and firmware updates.
- Proprietary software optimized for KrosFlo® TFF Systems
- Validated for GMP Processes with optional 21 CFR Part 11 option
- Intuitive workflow with 13 modes of operation
