Are you looking to maximise efficiencies in single-use bioprocessing applications?
Single-use bioprocessing efficiency is the rate of fluid transfer from one stage of the process chain to another which is often limited to the use of ¾” to 1” hoses.
Why is this? It is largely because there has not yet been a reliable way to connect hoses larger than 1” in diameter.
ESI Technologies is now the proud distributor for Refine Technology, a manufacturer of the CleanLine™ 1.5” Single Use Connector. The CleanLine™ connector promises increased efficiencies in large-scale sterile fluids management across media preparation, filtration, bioreactor harvesting, chromatography, concentration / diafiltration, and bulk formulation operations.
Cleanline™ Connector Benefits
- Strong, robust 1½” connection for high pressure and flow rates.
- Dual seals minimize contamination risk from the inside and outside.
- Genderless connecting: less inventory, less complexity, more flexibility.
- Connection secured with industrial strength bolts.
- More cost-effective; less downtime.
- Hose and custom assemblies are available.
- Easy to assemble.
Features
- Connector body material meets USP Class VI, 21 CFR 177.1655, and is Animal Derived Component Free. The material of construction is Polysulphone.
- 100% Lot traceable.
- Cleaned, assembled and packaged in an ISO 7 Clean Room.
- Gamma and autoclave stable.
- Operating temperature: 4 – 50°C.
- Operating pressure: 26” Hg up to 5.5 bar (80 PSIG).
Applications
- Upstream to downstream transfer.
- Media buffer preparation and transfer.
- Bioreactor harvest.
- Sterile waste removal from the process stream.
- WFI or sterile water transfers.
- Sterile bulk formulation downloads.
