The FundaStep control panel
Use Filters manually, for improved experience and consistent quality it is recommended to run the filtration package automatically. The filtration is a batch operation and hence the operating sequence runs through a number of distinct process steps, such as Filling, Prefiltration, Heel Volume Filtration and Back-flushing. Various process parameters, such as pressures, flow or turbidity can be measured and logged. These can give valuable input to understand the performance of the filtration package, compare individual filtration batches and optimize the protocols.
To simplify installation and operation, the compact control panel not only houses the PLC but also the custom made SU valves, solenoid valves and air filter regulator for the instrument air supply. Pump, agitator, instruments and instrument air are connected and the flexible single use tubing is easily attached to the valves.
