Opta® SFT

Sterile connector to be integrated into Sartorius Stedim Biotech Fluid Management assemblies (Opta® SFT-I) and also available as an individual device for end-user assembly with silicone tubing (SFT-I) or TPE tubing (SFT-D) and autoclave sterilization.

The Opta® SFT range of Sterile Connectors allows fast and reliable sterile connection and sterile fluid transfer between two separate, pre-sterilized process components in biopharmaceutical manufacturing operations.

This new connector has been qualified applying the most stringent and innovative test regimes.

The OPTA® SFT-I connectors can be integrated into Sartorius Stedim Biotech Fluid Management Technologies assemblies and are also available as individual device for end-user assembly with silicone tubing.

The Opta® SFT- D is available as individual device for end-user assembly with TPE tubing and autoclave sterilization.

• Male and female connector couplings sealed with sterilizing grade membrane: Allows for sterile fluid transfer in non-classified & classified environments
• Male and female connector couplings: Allows for "error proofing" of designs to prevent mistaken connections
• Sterilizable by gamma irradiation & autoclave: Flexible implementation of hybrid single-use and multiple use technologies
• 100% integrity tested: Highest security
• Claimed size equivalent to tubing ID size: No flow restriction
• 3-step operation: Easy, robust, repeatable operation
• All hose barb connections intensively qualified: Safe and robust tubing connections
• Fully integrated supply chain for Opta® SFT-I incorporating single-use assemblies from Sartorius Stedim Biotech: Streamlined supply chain, high security of supply
