Biopharma cell culture clarification

GEA kytero® Separator

Single-use disk stack separators bring new ease-of-use and efficiency to operations in labs and production cleanrooms.

Available for fed-batch and perfusion – a world’s first from GEA!

GEA kytero single use centrifuge for cell harvesting

Process-ready in few minutes: Compact single-use separators for easy, safe, high-efficiency operation.

Discover single-use separators to reduce costs, minimize work effort and replace costly filtration area in labs and
production cleanrooms. Automated disk stack separation technology delivers flexible, high-precision performance with
maximum yield and cell viability.

As a world first, the GEA kytero® range offers disk stack separation for batch processes as well as for continuous
perfusion. Gentle processing ensures perfusion and contamination-free run for weeks as well as a stress-free return of
cells.

This high efficiency coupled with the many cost advantages of a compact disk stack centrifuge makes the GEA
kytero® an indispensable separator in single-use processes.

Processes of 500 liters can be upscaled to 2,000 liters with the same bowl technology. Single-use fed-batch variants
may be further upscaled to industrial-size capacities

GEA kytero single-use separator with friction free breeze Drive

New ease-of use and reduced footprint in the cleanroom

The compact GEA kytero® single-use concept requires no CIP/SIP, WFI or flush media to prepare each next process run: Operators simply clip on a ew single-use set with minimum personnel effort. The movable skid fits into every cleanroom and comes with all connections, controls, turbidity and flow meters pre-installed.

Ensured containment with world’s first no-contact drive

The closed, single-use separation bowl of all GEA kytero® machines prevents any contact of the product with atmosphere or other machine parts. Another world’s first, the revolutionary no-contact breezeDrive® system without shafts, bearings or mechanical seals prevents the threat of abrasions and resulting purity breach. This innovation is also appreciated for the very low noise level in the production or lab environment.
