  • Publication number: 20230002715
    Abstract: The invention relates to a modular processing system for biopharmaceutical and/or chemical processes, comprising: at least one processing unit; at least one adapter plate, which can be directly or indirectly fluidically connected to the processing unit, wherein the adapter plate has at least one adapter channel, through which at least one fluid flow can flow to the processing unit, wherein the adapter plate also has at least one deflection element and/or a pump and/or at least one valve; and an external control device. The adapter plate is designed in such a way that the fluid flow to the processing unit can be at least partially deflected with the at least one deflection element in the adapter channel and/or the fluid flow, preferably its pressure, is controllable with the at least one valve and/or the pump in the adapter channel.

  • Publication number: 20210102154
    Abstract: A filter system (100) for biopharmaceutical processes includes: at least one filter unit (10); and at least one distributor plate (200), against which the filter unit rests. A tubeless distributor unit (202) is arranged within the distributor plate and is fluidically connected to the filter unit. The distributor unit guides the fluid to be filtered to the filter unit and/or receives and discharges the filtered fluid from the filter unit. The distributor unit includes at least one active control element (232; 238), with which a fluid flow (14) through the distributor unit) and the filter unit is controlled in an open loop flow or a closed loop flow. The fluid connection between the filter unit and the distributor plate is tubeless. Also provided are a distributor plate (200) for a filter system (100) for biopharmaceutical processes and a method for producing a filter system (100) for biopharmaceutical processes.
