The Magma Advanced Pumping System includes the pump controller and a range of sanitary air diaphragm pumps and silicone diaphragms that are ideal for controlling your alternating tangential flow (ATF) filtration process.
- Key applications include:
- Bioreactor perfusion with a hollow fiber filter (compatible with all brands of filters)
- N-1 perfusion process intensification
- Viral Vector Production
- Low shear operation in its pumping action that makes it ideal for use in shear-sensitive applications such as pumping mammalian cells
- For perfusion, scalable from 100mL to >100L
- Single use pump heads that eliminate the need for cleaning and can be integrated smoothly into other single-use process components including bioreactors
- Perfect for both research and production
- Plug-and-play design creates an integrated system for advanced applications
- Flexible design optimizes lab space

Additional System Benefits
Performance
- Five pump head sizes are available to accommodate the needs of your process
- The pump head model is approximate of the pump volume (in milliliters) but may vary with expansion of silicone diaphragm, and flow rate is a function of the cycle time set in the pump controller
- Each has a sanitary flange for secure connection to process as required
- Diaphragm material is USP Class VI silicone and both polysulfone plastic and diaphragm are gamma compatible
- Diaphragm, polysulfone plastic pump heads, and stainless-steel pump heads are autoclave-compatible
- The pump controller cycles pressurized air to discharge liquid contents, and vacuum or pressure head to fill liquid into the pump chamber
- All qualified for > 1 million cycles to provide several months of continuous operation*
*Service life depends on cycle frequency/flow rate.
