AseptiQuik S Genderless AQS33004
The ASEPTIQUIK S Genderless AQS33004 connector epitomizes cutting-edge design in the realm of biopharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. Constructed from durable polycarbonate that adheres to USP Class VI and ADCF standards, this 1/4" Sanitary Connector is specifically engineered to facilitate sterile media transfer in non-sterile environments, crucial for small-flow applications. The molded white material finish, accented with blue tab covers, not only provides visual cleanliness but also indicates its compliance with rigorous health and safety regulations.
This connector's innovative "FLIP-CLICK-PULL" design simplifies the connection process, reducing the likelihood of operator error and accelerating the setup, crucial in high-paced industry settings. By eliminating the need for additional securing hardware such as clamps and tube welders, the AQS33004 ensures a streamlined workflow, enhancing both efficiency and safety. The non-valved, straight bore flow path design allows for direct and unimpeded media transfer, which is ideal for precise operations.
Sterilization is achieved through gamma irradiation, ensuring that the connector remains sterile and ready for use in critical environments. The silicone, platinum-cured seals offer robust performance by maintaining integrity within a temperature range of 39ºF to 104ºF (4ºC to 40ºC), suitable for a variety of bioprocessing tasks. The pressure capacity up to 60 psi further underscores its suitability for demanding applications.
Overall, the ASEPTIQUIK S Genderless AQS33004 is a superior choice for biopharmaceutical manufacturers who prioritize reliability, usability, and compliance. Its genderless interface facilitates universal application, making it a versatile addition to any setup that requires quick, sterile connections without compromising on quality or performance.
