mdi QuiKonnect gamma irradiatable Polycarbonate Quick Connectors are designed to provide reliable and easy connectivity in critical aseptic process steps in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals.The special side wings in the female connector are provided to prevent accidental release of connection.These connectors significantly improve the service ability of fluid systems by saving time, reducing the spills/leakage and increasing safety, while minimizing the risk of cross contamination likely to happen with reusable components.mdi QuiKonnect Quick Connectors are made up of materials which fulfill critical requirements such as wide chemical compatibility, and minimal extractables. These can be sterilized by Radiation or Autoclaved.
- Extra Reliability: Special side wings on the female part designed to prevent accidental pressing of the latch
- Wide ring on the male part to facilitate pressing while making a quick connection
- Transfer of sterile fluids
- Series connection
- Delivery and recovery lines
- Laboratory tubing connections
