For use with:
®
Palletank For In-Process Fluid Handling
1000L

1. Introduction

®
The Flexel 3D System is composed of a dis-
posable sterile bag, the Flexel
the Palletank ® rigid container constructed of
stainless steel. The Palletank ®
fluid contained within the Flexel
The two make up the System and must be
used together to ensure a robust process
solution. The Flexel ® 3D Bags are manu-
factured according to a patented design that
precisely fits the Palletank ® . When filling,
bottom and sides of the bag conform to the
shape and dimensions of the tank. The exact
fit ensures that there are no folds or creases
to trap pockets of air or liquid for maximum
bag functionality.
The Flexel ® 3D System has been designed
with a bottom port that allows both bottom
filling and drainage of the bag for virtually
100% fluid recovery. The combination of the
top and bottom ports also allows for recircu-
lation of the bag contents.
Typical applications for the Flexel
System include in-process fluid handling,
storage recirculation mixing, weighing and
transportation of biopharmaceutical fluids
under sterile conditions. The various config-
urations of tubing and the Palletank
it compatible with a wide range of bio-pro-
cessing applications. Bags and correspon-
®
ding Palletank for the Flexel
are currently available from 100L to 3000L.
The System can be moved with a pallet jack,
forklift, or a dolly (up to 1000L).
