A Dead End Filter is used to represent an equipment resource typically used to host a Dead End filtration procedure. In this type of filter the flow causes a build up of the filter cake which has an impact on the efficiency of the filtration process. This equipment may be used by flush, CIP, SIP and/or hold.operations as well. The procedure can only be executed in a batch / semi continuous mode.
