3.4 Emptying Flexsafe
Sartorius Stedim Biotech recommends dispensing through the bottom.
1. Connect bottom tubing line to receiving system according to standard
procedures for your site.
2. Open any clamps on the draining line (see Fig. 18). Drain the bag – gravity can
be used, but for faster draining and maximum product recovery,
Sartorius Stedim Biotech recommends the use of a peristaltic pump (see Fig. 24).
3. The bag collapses as it is drained. The sloped bottom of the Palletank
position of the drain hole provide nearly 100% fluid recovery. This efficiency can
be improved by lifting the bag at the end of the operation (see Fig. 25).
4. Once dispensing is completed, clamp the line (see Fig. 17) and disconnect the
Flexsafe 3D Bag from the receiving system.
