Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Prevent Vacuum-Related Cross-Contamination With Nilfisk-Advance America's New Filtered Pre-Separator
When connected to a central system outlet, the filtered pre-separator enables users to collect and filter multiple materials without sending them to the central system
MALVERN, Pa., May 2, 2003 - Industrial vacuum cleaner manufacturer Nilfisk-Advance America announced that its new filtered pre-separator, a heavy-duty collection tank that can be integrated into central vacuum systems, significantly reduces the threat of cross-contamination in pharmaceutical manufacturing applications. The filtered pre-separator connects to the central system's outlets, and is powered by the system's suction. Because all powders are filtered and held within the pre-separator's tank - instead of traveling through the outlet to the central system where they would be mixed together - the opportunity for cross-contamination is greatly reduced.
Additionally, Nilfisk-Advance America's filtered pre-separator simplifies drug accountability. Users can simply collect a material, empty the tank, and determine the amount of materials collected versus the amount used during production. The filtered pre-separator's multi-stage HEPA* filtration system helps to further ensure accurate accountability by retaining 99.999 percent of materials, down to 0.3 microns, within the tank - not exhausting them into the air.
Available in stainless steel, Nilfisk-Advance America's filtered pre-separator is approved for cleanrooms down to ISO 5 (Class 100).
