Single-use Sensor and Filter Assemblies
Qualified. Sterile. Ready-to-use.
Biomanufacturers increasingly rely on modular single-use systems designed for flexible use. To satisfy this need, Sartorius offers a wide range of filter and sensor assemblies that can be built to your unique needs, simplifying bioprocesses from development to manufacturing.
With over 20 years of experience manufacturing single-use solutions, Sartorius can help tame the complexities of modular manufacturing. You benefit both from our expertise and our single-use filter and sensor assemblies to accelerate time to market, improve manufacturing flexibility and reduce costs.
Our experts will work with you to create the design for your filter or sensor assemblies in minutes, and you will receive them within a few weeks.
All standardized assemblies pass comprehensive qualification, sterility and transport validation.
A full range of filters, sensors, connectors and tubing types are available to accommodate any new or existing processes.
Our ready-to-use filter and sensor assemblies arrive pre-assembled, qualified, and sterile for easy implementation.
Find the Right Single-Use Assemblies for Your Process
Whether you need a simple single-use assembly for particle or bioburden reduction or a more complex assembly for virus filtration or final sterile filtration with PUPSIT (Pre-Use-Post-Sterilization-Integrity-Test) capability, we help you to find your assembly from process development to commercial manufacturing. Our experts can help you standardize and harmonize your single-use assemblies, no matter how complex it seems today.

Filter Transfer Sets for Final Filling
Standardized Filter Transfer Sets for Final Filling Increase Speed to Market and Mitigates Risks
Typically, customized designs of filter assemblies for final filling require extended design phases involving development and testing of prototypes with lead times of at least six months. This compromises speed to market, while custom design leads to constantly changing protocols, which increases the risk of operational errors.
Sartorius’ preconfigured single-use Filter Transfer Sets for Final Filling reduce wait times up to 80%. Standardized product design and consistent operating procedures facilitate handling and reduce the risk of operator error, regardless of filter type and size. The qualified, sterile filter transfer set for final filling complies with PUPSIT requirements contained in the EU GMP Annex 1.
Filter Assemblies Engineered to Your Needs
While standard assemblies cover many needs, Sartorius understands that there are specific needs that require special single-use assemblies.
Our Engineer-To-Order (ETO) process enables the development of customized solutions.
- Dedicated project management
- Fast delivery of prototypes
