MicroCNX® Connectors introduce a new category of aseptic micro-connectors that provide a simple, efficient method of connecting tubing for small-format biomanufacturing assemblies. MicroCNX connectors are the modern alternative to the cumbersome, industrial process of tube welding. Building on the inventiveness of CPC, the leader in single-use connection technology, the MicroCNX line of connectors is engineered specifically for the challenging conditions of biologic media transfer in bioprocessing, cell therapy and gene therapy applications.
| Features | Benefits |
| PINCH-CLICK-PULL | Intuitive three-step connection process reduces risk of operator error |
| Easy to use | Lowers risk of operator error and related performance, reliability and safety concerns |
| Genderless | Eases single-use systems specifications with one part number for both halves |
| CPC Click | Audible confirmation of assembly with no additional hardware required |
| Pressure: | Up to 60 psi, 4.1 bar |
|---|---|
| Up to 75 psi, 5.1 bar for 48 hours | |
| Temperature: | 34°F to 104°F (1°C to 40°C) |
| Main Components: | Polycarbonate (white), USP Class VI, ADCF |
|---|---|
| Seals: | Silicone (clear), platinum-cured, USP Class VI, ADCF |
| Protective Cover: | Polypropylene (teal), USP Class VI, ADCF |
| Membrane | Hydrophobic Polyethersulfone (clear), USP Class VI, ADCF |
| Gamma | Up to 50 kGy irradiation |
|---|---|
| Autoclave | One Cycle up to 266°F (130°C) for 60 minutes |
| Cv Value Range: 0.04-0.27 for MicroCNX hose barb terminations | |
|
|
| Cv values represent the approximate expected flow rate in gallons per minute of water at room temperature for a 1 PSI pressure drop. The flow is generally constrained by the smallest diameter, which in some cases will be the termination diameter and not the Nominal Flow Path. |
