Patent Images
1. A control device for a filtration unit for filtering a fluid, wherein the control device comprises:
- an integrity test unit for performing an integrity test for checking the functional integrity of the filtration unit;
a reaction unit for determining a reaction based on a result of the integrity test;
the integrity test unit being arranged for performing the integrity test for checking the functional integrity of a filter membrane for filtering the fluid;
the integrity test unit being arranged for checking the functional integrity of the filter membrane by means of applying a test pressure to the filter membrane and by measuring the time response of the test pressure at the filter membrane.
