Product description

Pilot-scale membrane system SW18 for micro-, ultra-, nanofiltration & reverse osmosis with HMI and high-pressure control.

The MMS Membrane System Pilot System SW18 is a sophisticated batch laboratory membrane filtration system designed to support microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis operations. This pilot-scale device is essential for biotechnology and bioprocessing workflows including fermentation broth clarification, enzyme and protein concentration, peptide de-salting, API purification, solvent recovery, and protein fractionation.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Spiral Wound 1812 membrane module with 0.3 m² filtration area, suitable for testing various membrane types.
  • High pressure and circulation pump with speed control enables variable membrane crossflow velocity, optimizing separation efficiency.
  • Integrated multitube heat exchanger maintains precise temperature control within 5–80 °C for sensitive biomolecule processing.
  • Stainless steel 316L construction with 10 L feed tank volume ensures chemical compatibility and durability crucial in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing.
  • Comprehensive instrumentation includes two pressure transducers (0–50 bar), a temperature sensor (0–100 °C), and a precision balance (0–15 kg, 1 g resolution) for reliable process monitoring.
  • The system features a user-friendly HMI touch panel interface with data logging, facilitating process control and record-keeping necessary for regulatory compliance in synthetic biology and pharmaceutical research environments.
  • The design supports cleaning-in-place (CIP) and sterilization-in-place (SIP) protocols, important for maintaining aseptic conditions in biotechnology and clinical diagnostic laboratories.

This pilot membrane system is widely adopted in biopharmaceutical production pipelines, food extract processing, biofuel development, and chemical synthesis, making it critical for laboratories engaged in advanced filtration and separation technologies. Its capability to handle high pressure operations while providing precise control over membrane flow dynamics ensures reproducible performance, catering to both research-scale and bioprocessing scale-up studies.

The MMS SW18 model supports a permeate flow rate of approximately 1–5 L/h (dependent on feed characteristics) and an overall system flow rate of 450 L/h. All tubing and fittings are made from corrosion-resistant 316L stainless steel, suitable for harsh solvents and buffer exchange processes used in gene editing and molecular cloning workflows.

This equipment is especially valuable for scientists and engineers in biotechnology research, cell imaging sample prep, synthetic biology, and molecular diagnostics, seeking a reliable membrane filtration pilot plant system for diverse applications including live-cell culture clarification and protein purification.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
