Aseptic Tube Sealer

Aseptic Tube Sealer

The aseptic tube sealer is used in clean rooms to disconnect two processes linked with a C-Flex type® flexible tube. The disconnection is perfectly safe and sterile. All life residing both sides of the sealing is destroyed with the flexible thermofusion and the temperature holding.

Features

The aseptic tube sealer is used to disconnect 2 process equipment in pharmaceutical or biotech application. C-Flex® type flexible to be disconnected is pinched in jaws interlocked by a magnetic locker. The disconnecting cycle is launched by the operator.  A ceramic heating device raises temperature to the fusion point of the C-Flex® flexible.

The sealing temperature can de adjusted depending on diameters and type of flexibles used. This temperature is held for a set time to destroy all life present in the tube. Then an embedded pump cools down the sealed tube down to room temperature for the safety of the operator. Finally the magnetic locker is released allowing the jaws to be opened.

The operator checks visually for correct sealing and can cut the tube.
