Aseptic connection
Disposable technology: suitable for sterile connection of sterile medium transportation.
The benefits of a disposable system are evident throughout the entire biopharmaceutical manufacturing process, but whether you are in an upstream or downstream process, ensuring sterility is crucial. CPC's connection technology enables manufacturers to quickly and easily perform sterile connections between disposable bag systems, tube components, and/or stainless steel process equipment.
• Steam Trru ®  The connector can quickly and conveniently aseptic connect biopharmaceutical process equipment, disposable sterile bags, and tube components. You can safely transport media without worrying about cleaning and validation issues related to reusable components.
• AseptiQuik ®  The joint can achieve sterile medium transportation between the tube component and the bag component even in a bacterial environment. The durable design of the joint ensures reliable performance without the need for clamps, fixtures, and welding machines, and can be connected without the use of laminar flow purification hoods.

Aseptic disconnection
Disposable technology: suitable for sterile disconnection of sterile media transportation.
The benefits of a one-time system can be seen throughout the entire biopharmaceutical manufacturing process, from filter integrity testing to terminal filling operations. Whether they are used in upstream or downstream processes, ensuring sterility is crucial.
Nowadays, the HFC39 quick plug connector of CPC allows process engineers to confidently disconnect pipelines and process pipelines without any pollution risk. The automatic shut-off valve can aseptic close the flow channel, protecting valuable media without the need for pipeline clamps and welding machines. These lightweight joints can be easily integrated with disposable components and meet all animal free ingredients (ADCF) requirements.

Steam Trru ®  Joint
Disposable technology: Steam-Thru
CPC Steam-Thru ®  The joint technology creates a sterile connection between the pre sterilization bag system or tube components and stainless steel process equipment. The innovative three port design of this product eliminates dead corners, allowing steam to pass through the joint and directly enter the stainless steel equipment, ensuring maximum sterility.
The launch of CPC Steam Thru II further expands sterile assurance; Steam-Thru II can provide "steam on" and "steam off" functions, enabling sterile connection and disconnection without the need for laminar flow purification hoods. This reduces the possibility of microbial contamination in the process flow channel and also reduces environmental pollution within the facility.
Steam-Thru of CPC ®  The product series includes several valve and end options, allowing you to flexibly meet today's installation and flow requirements. Connect the connector to a disposable bag system or pipeline, and then perform pre sterilization using gamma irradiation up to 50 kGy, or high-pressure steam sterilization at temperatures up to 129 ° C for 60 minutes, depending on the product configuration.
For installation on processing equipment, engineers can specify the connection to the intermediate port ¾ Or 1- ½ Connect the sanitary end. T-clamps are used to secure the middle sanitary end to the device and the lower sanitary end to the steam trap. After connection, these two lower ports can achieve a true SIP steam penetration sterilization program, thereby avoiding the possibility of trapping pollutants. With the help of Steam-Thru ®  II. You can perform SIP cycles with temperatures up to 135 ° C or pressures of 35 PSI, lasting up to 60 minutes, to allow steam to pass through the joints and enter the equipment. The effectiveness of the "steam on" cycle has been confirmed through the use of thermophilic fat bacillus for bacterial challenge.
After the SIP cycle is completed, the operator only needs to press the thumb lock to switch the valve from steam position to flow position. This creates a sterile flow channel between the stainless steel equipment and the disposable system, enabling the delivery of sterile fluids. Steam-Thru ®  One major advantage of the II valve design is that the Cv value can reach 8.2, which translates to a flow rate of 43.9 L/min (at a pressure of 2 PSI), making it very suitable for high-capacity applications.
After the fluid delivery is completed, press the thumb lock again to return the valve to the steam position for the second SIP or "steam off" cycle. This can eliminate all remaining biological residues between process equipment and disposable systems, thereby minimizing the possibility of environmental pollution during disconnection.
In addition to completing bacterial challenge tests on the "steam on" cycle, bacterial challenge tests were also conducted on the "steam off" cycle after medium delivery. Northview Labs uses defect shortwave single
