Sartorius BioWelder TC Sterile Tube Welding Device  Ref. 1962637

The Biowelder® TC is an automated welder for connecting thermoplastic tubing in a sterile welding operation. This new innovating technology allows sterile connection of dry or liquid filled TPE tubing up to 1 inch outer diameter. The Biowelder® TC produces TPE tubing welding through a thermal connection and ensures an extraordinary level of stability and guarantees a sterile connection.

Liquid filled tubing from 1/4″ to 1″ OD: flexible, multiple additions via the same tubing line
Automated device: easy to use
Standard programs: ready to use for C-Flex® 374,Tuflux® TPE, AdvantaFlex®, SaniPure® and PharMed® tubing (not for 1/8′ x 1/4′)
Improved design (including device holder | color coded): ergonomic
Extensively qualified: Safe and robust sterile welding connections
Extremly short welding time: fast connections from 1,5 up to 2,5 min
The Biowelder® TC is used to connect thermoplastic tubing such as C-Flex® 374, Tuflux® TPE, AdvantaFlex®, SaniPure® BDF™ and PharMed® BPT, used on disposable bags or bag assemblies within all biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes.

Working Principle
To start using the Biowelder® TC automated tube welder, an operator inserts the tube holders, the disposable blade and the TPE tubes and initiates the welding process via the touch screen. The blade is first heated for depyrogenation and cooled to the welding temperature, with an infrared sensor controlling the temperature. After the blade cuts the tubes, the tube holder rotates and a new connection is established.

Applications
Biowelder® TC can weld either dry, wet or liquid-filled tubing in non classified and classified environment while maintaining product sterility.
