Sartorius, FTH-CF00016-0009, Celsius® Pak Frame -16.6 L

16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames are reusable protective structural frames engineered to fit with the 16.6L Celsius® Pak. They contain the Pak’s contents during all processes, making the assembly robust, reliable, and simple, and allowing for confident handling, storage, and shipping of Celsius® Paks.

16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames contain the entire single-use assembly and allow for confident handling, storage, and shipping of the 16.6L Celsius® Paks. The frames are reusable items and mandatory for the filling, freezing, storing, shipping, and thawing of 16.6L Celsius® Paks. 16.6L Celsius® Paks need to be assembled to their respective protective frames before being processed through the different operations of the Celsius® CFT platform.
Protected tubings and connectors
16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames immobilize the tubings and connectors throughout the entire product life cycle. Once assembled to the frames, the drain line of the 16.6L Celsius® Paks is positioned and maintained inside the tubing channel along the frame side with retention tabs. The 16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames have a pocket for an aseptic connector located at the base of the frame end. This pocket provides support for a 16.6L Celsius® Pak equipped with Opta® as the outlet connector on the drain line.
Shock absorbers to prevent frozen bags from tipping
Four foam bumpers are located at the top of the 16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames to cushion the frozen 16.6L Celsius® Paks during tip-over impacts and during end-to-end impacts. Tip-over tests have been run to validate this protection.
Large plastic handles for confident handling
16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames have large plastic handles that are molded into the frame end for easy manipulation.
Fits perfectly with the side shape of the frozen Celsius® Paks, holding ice blocks & preventing relative motion
The concave geometry of the ends in 16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames was designed to follow the contour of the ice block when frozen. In this way the ice block is supported during shocks and cannot shear away from the 16.6L Celsius® Pak Frames. The result is that the frozen Celsius® Paks can be successfully transported in a vertical configuration.
