AseptiQuik S Genderless AQS17002
The ASEPTIQUIK S Genderless AQS17002 connector is a pivotal component in the realm of biopharmaceutical manufacturing, specifically engineered for small-flow applications that require rapid and sterile media transfer. Constructed from high-quality polycarbonate that meets USP Class VI and ADCF standards, this 1/8" hose barb connector is not only durable but also safe for sensitive applications. The white molded finish with blue tab covers provides a clean, professional look while enhancing usability by making the operational steps clear and straightforward.
Operating under a pressure range of up to 60 psi and within a temperature spectrum of 39°F to 104°F (4°C to 40°C), the AQS17002 is capable of handling varying operational conditions with ease. Its innovative "FLIP-CLICK-PULL" design simplifies the process of making sterile connections, significantly reducing the risk of contamination and operator error—a critical advantage in settings where precision and reliability are paramount.
Sterilization of this connector is accomplished through gamma irradiation, ensuring that it remains sterile and ready for use in environments that may not be sterile themselves. The silicone, platinum-cured seals offer robust leak-proof performance, which is essential for maintaining the integrity and quality of the media being transferred.
Overall, the ASEPTIQUIK S Genderless AQS17002 connector is an indispensable tool for biopharmaceutical manufacturers who demand reliability, efficiency, and sterility in their fluid handling processes. Its genderless design not only provides flexibility across various systems and tubing sizes but also underscores its utility in a wide range of applications, making it a highly versatile and valuable asset in the industry.
