Replace non-ASCII characters with space in a file

I am using the following command to replace the non-ASCII characters, single quotes and non printable characters:

sed -i -e "s/'//g" -e's/&apos;//g' -e's/[\d128-\d255]//g' -e's/\x0//g' filename

However, I am getting an error:

sed: -e expression #3, char 18: Invalid collation character

How can I replace these characters?
