A flowmeter for single-use biopharmaceutical processes
Krohne
The Flexmag 4050 C (photo) is said to be the first electromagnetic flowmeter with biocompatible and disposable flow tubes specifically developed for single-use biopharmaceutical applications, including filtration processes, chromatography or buffer and media preparation. Featuring extremely high accuracy and factory calibration that eliminates the need for in-situ calibration, the Flexmag 4050 C includes a biocompatible and gamma-sterilizable disposable flow tube. All wetted materials comply with FDA/USP Class VI and ISO 10993, and are manufactured in an ISO 13485 certified site within an ISO 7 clean-room environment. The Flexmag 4050 C flow tube uses a single-barb fitting that meets biopharmaceutical requirements for adaptation to single-use systems. The single-barb fitting is suitable for braided and non-braided hoses. — Krohne, Inc., Peabody, Mass.
