BioPure Q-Clamp is compatible with a wide range of connector geometries

Published: 28-Sep-2017

The latest innovation from Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group brand BioPure is the Q-Clamp, a new sanitary Tri-Clamp for single-use fluid path applications

Capable of providing a secure connection in less than 12 seconds, this patented single-handed and tool free sanitary Tri-Clamp is qualified for use in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry.

What is more, this lightweight sanitary clamp is supported by an industry-leading validation pack for nonwetted components.

The BioPure Q-Clamp does not require any tools for application or removal. A unique closing mechanism ensures the clamp can be closed quickly using one hand, a feature that also serves to reduce operator strain.

Importantly, a double-sided ratchet ensures the clamp remains shut in the unlikely event that one side should fail. Q-Clamp is a tamper evident identification technology solution for Tri-Clamp connections.

The additional component can also be used for identification through colour, allowing procedures to specify relevant areas of the process. Eight colours are available and application is possible pre or post clamp assembly.

Manufactured and packed in an ISO Class 7 cleanroom, Q-Clamp meets current industry requirements including ISO 10993: Parts 5, 6, 10, and 11, USP <88> & USP <87>. Q-Clamp has also been evaluated for extractables using a single solvent approach.
