Abstract
A device for tangential flow filtration includes a filter unit having first and second fluid openings, a filter element and a permeate opening, a first flow connection to connect the first fluid opening to a reservoir, a second flow connection to connect the second fluid opening to the reservoir, a first centrifugal pump in the first flow connection to convey the fluid from the reservoir to the filter unit, a first controller to actuate the first centrifugal pump, the filter unit designed such that the fluid for tangential flow filtration is capable of flowing substantially parallel to the filter element, a second centrifugal pump in the second flow connection, with which a counter-pressure is capable of being generated at the second fluid opening, and a second controller to actuate the second centrifugal pump.
