The Sterile Tube Fuser is a fully automated device for welding together thermoplastic tubing in a sterile operation without the need for a laminar flow cabinet. The machine is useful for connecting tubing between sterile containers, bags, and process equipment. The unit can connect large diameter (up to 22.2mm OD) tubing for the rapid and easy transfer of large volumes. Major uses are bioprocessing and aseptic pharmaceutical applications. The new, compact Sterile Tube Fuser (STF-IRc) uses infrared technology to control depyrogenation and welding temperatures. Disposable, single-use, PTFE coated blades are used in the process. 2
Applications Sterile media and buffer transfer. Connection of bioreactors for feed and harvest. Process fluid transfer. In-process pooling. Final fill operations. Features Welds any thermoplastic tubing from 6.4mm to 22.2mm OD (¼ in. to 7/8 in.) using interchangeable holders. Use C-Flex, Sanipure, PharMed, Tygon /PVC or similar tubing. Thermal weld provides exceptional strength. Make aseptic connections without a laminar flow cabinet. New, more compact design; portable. User-programmable for various tubing types. Requires only electrical service. 110/220VAC universal voltage. Proven, validated performance.
