Flexel® 3D Bag - Sartorius

Flexel ® 3D BAG 1. Introduction 2. Palletank ® & Flexel ® 3D Bag
1500L | 3000L Description
For use with:
Palletank ® For In-Process Fluid Handling:
1500L, 2000L, 2500L and 3000L
The Flexel ® 3D System is composed of a disposable
sterile bag, the Flexel ® 3D Bag and
the Palletank ® rigid container constructed of
stainless steel. The Palletank ® supports the
fluid contained within the Flexel ® 3D Bag.
The two make up the System and must be
used together to ensure a robust process
solution. The Flexel ® 3D Bags are manufactured
according to a patented design that
precisely fits the Palletank ®. When filling,
bottom and sides of the bag conform exactly
to the shape and dimensions of the tank.
The exact fit ensures that there are no folds
or creases to trap pockets of air or liquid for
maximum bag functionality.
The Flexel ® 3D System has been designed
with bottom ports that allow both bottom
filling and drainage of the bag for virtually
100% fluid recovery.
The various configurations of tubing and the
Palletank ® make it compatible with a wide
range of bio-processing applications. Bags
and corresponding Palletank ® for In-Process
Fluid Handling are currently available from
1500L to 3000L.
Purpose
This Instruction for use describes the operations
required to prepare, fill and drain the
Flexel ® 3D Bag in its dedicated Palletank ®
from 1,500L and above.
