4.2.5 Inflating the
CultiBag RM
1. Insert the exhaust filter between both parts of the exhaust filter heater.
Both parts are held together by magnets. (The exhaust filter is equipped with an
overpressure valve.)
2. Two magnets close at the opening of the filter heater to ensure a secure hold.
3. Now connect the filter heater to the corresponding socket on the left and/or right
side of the rocker (see figure). The exhaust filter heater of the left bag is connected
to the left side. The exhaust filter heater of the right bag is connected to the right
side if it is being used.
A green LED indicates when the heater is in operation. If the LED flashes, this
indicates the warm-up phase. If the LED lights up continually, it indicates that it
has reached operating temperature.
4. The rocker controller queries whether or not the filter heater is connected as soon
as aeration starts. If this is not the case, an alarm is triggered.
The exhaust filter is now heated to > 40 °C. This helps to ensure that the filter
does not become blocked.
1. Connect the "Gas 1 and/or Gas 2" connection of the BIOSTAT
to the sterile exhaust filter on the CultiBag RM using the supplied tubing.
(The exhaust filter is the filter without the overpressure valve).
If two CultiBags RM are being used, use both rocker outputs.
Caution!
Connecting the bag (CultiBag RM) directly to a gas source or using another air
pump can create overpressure. This overpressure could burst the bag because
the integrated pressure sensor now cannot send a signal to the external gas
source to stop the aeration for overpressure in the CultiBag RM. This situation
would not be covered by the warranty.
Make sure that the tubing clamps on the intake air filter and exhaust filter are
open and close all additional tubing clamps on the bag.
1. Turn the device on via the main switch on the back. The Start menu appears on the
display for a few seconds showing the respective program version of the device
before switching to the Main menu.
2. Start the aeration as described in the following chapter
on page 27.
