The Sartocheck® 5 Plus Filter Tester is an automatic filter integrity tester designed to cover the complete range of integrity testing from small syringe filters up to large multiround housings and tangential flow cassettes.
The Sartocheck® 5 Plus can perform the following filter integrity tests:
- Bubble Point Test
- Diffusion Test / Forward flow Test
- Combined Diffusion and Bubble Point Test
- Water Intrusion Test (WIT)
- Pressure Drop Test / Leak Test
Quality Risk Management
The regulatory focus on QRM (cf. ICHQ9 and the new Annex 1 written by EMA in cooperation with the US-FDA, WHO and PICs) also applies to filter integrity testing, as a fundamental element of sterility assurance. The Sartocheck® 5 Plus Filter Tester uses program specific parameters allowing the automatic identification of testing anomalies before or during the test. This prevents time-consuming, costly deviations, potential drug recalls and 483 warning letters.
