New Larger AseptiQuik® Connector for High-Flow Processes

Easily Integrates with Variety of OEM Components

CPC (Colder Products Company), maker of genderless AseptiQuik® sterile connectors, introduces a 1-1/2” inch sanitary termination to deliver higher flow rates for high-volume, large-flow transfer lines in full-scale bioprocessing and biopharmaceutical operations.

“CPC continues to expand our AseptiQuik portfolio to meet the higher flow rates and system integration requirements of biopharmaceutical manufacturers,” said John Boehm, CPC Business Director, Bioprocessing. “The new AseptiQuik L 1-1/2” Sanitary product enhances customers’ abilities to standardize closed system designs and seamlessly connect modular systems that incorporate a broad range of single-use technologies.”

The AseptiQuik L line now includes three termination sizes—3/4” and 1” hose barb options introduced last year, and the new 1-1/2” sanitary product. The new AseptiQuik connector also integrates with different OEM suppliers’ components requiring a 1-1/2” sanitary fitting including capsule filters, single-use bioreactors, mixing and storage tanks, chromatography skids, transfer lines and more. 

Genderless connectors simplify use, operator training and inventory management. CPC’s robust design provides reliable performance without the need for clamps, fixtures or tube welders. 

The AseptiQuik L Series’ integrated pull tabs act as protective covers, reducing complexity and ensuring simultaneous removal of both membranes. The connectors’ easy “Flip-Click-Pull” assembly process and audible “click” confirming connection also help reduce operator error. 

For current AseptiQuik users, AseptiQuik L connector validation, specification and implementation are streamlined—the new connector uses the same connection process and material as other AseptiQuik products. Also, the AseptiQuik L Series is readily available through a global network of distributors, integrators and OEM partners, expanding supply chain flexibility.
