Genderless AseptiQuik G sterile connectors from CPC are designed to simplify single-use systems design and process integration. The design eliminates separate male and female components to reduce complexity and support modular system design. Because the connectors are interchangeable — any single-use G series connector mates with any other G series connector — systems are more flexible and minimise supply chain complexity, according to CPC.
G series connectors are available in a full range of interchangeable 6.4 mm to 19.0 mm flow solutions, in both gamma and high-temperature versions. Terminations include 6.4 mm to 19.0 mm hose barb and 19.0 mm mini-sanitary.
The group also claims that the AseptiQuik family offers “the broadest range of single-use sterile connectors in the industry”, with flow configurations from 3.2mm to 25.4mm (1/8” to 1”). The range is particularly suited to applications where reliability and sterility are key, such as single-use bag and tubing assemblies, cell banking systems, bioreactors, mixers, sampling, formulation and filling.
