Micro CNX Connectors
MicroCNX Connectors are a new category of aseptic micro-connectors that provide a simple, efficient method of connecting tubing for small-format biomanufacturing assemblies. MicroCNX connectors are the modern alternative to the cumbersome, industrial process of tube welding. The MicroCNX line of connectors is engineered specifically for the challenging conditions of biological media transfer in bioprocessing, cell therapy, and gene therapy applications.
Scale up with A SIMPLER, MORE CONSISTENT SOLUTION
MicroCNX sterile connectors are proven to deliver flexibility, ease of use, less downtime and increased reliability and cost efficiencies, which can make them a better choice for system designers and processors.
4 x faster than Tube Welding

Benefits
|
|---|---|
|
Aseptic, single-use connection technology
|
The future of making aseptic connections in cell & gene therapy biomanufacturing Do not have to make connections in the Bio Safety Cabinet (BSC) A better option for small format tubing where tube welding fails - the only aseptic media transfer method that consistently and reliably transfers aseptic fluid at 1/16"" tubing
|
|
Ultra-Low Tempaerature and Chemical compatability
|
Termination and flow path are made from PPSU to allow for increased chemical compatibility without deterioration, and able to handle harsh chemicals like liquid nitrogen and Dimethly Sulfoxide (DMSO) Can be frozen down to vaporized liquid nitrogen temperature (-190C) (MicroCNX ULT and MicroCNX Nano)
|
|
Easy-to-use
|
Lowers risk of operator error and related performance, reliability and safety concerns
|
|
PULL-CLICK-PULL
|
Intuitive three-step connection process reduces risk of operator error
|
|
Genderless
|
Eases single-use systems specifications with one part number for both halves
|
|
CPC Click
|
Audible confirmation of assembly with no additional hardware required
|
|
PVC tubing
|
Fully compatibility with all PVC tubing (MicroCNX ULT and MicroCNX Nano)
|
|
Low and ultra-low profiles
|
The smallest profile with a compact size that fits in freeze cassettes (MicroCNX ULT and MicroCNX Nano)
|
|
Low Hold-up Volume
|
Minimize lost fluid during tranfers

Specifications
Pressure:
Up to 60 psi, 4.1 bar (Standard*)
Up to 75 psi, 5.1 bar for 48 hours (Standard*)
Up to 43.5 psi, 3 bar (ULT** and Luer***)
Up to 29 psi, 2 bar (Nano****)
Temperature:
34°F to 104°F (1°C to 40°C)
Main Components:
Polycarbonate (white)
Seals:
Silicone (clear), platinum-cured
Protective Cover:
Polypropylene (teal)
Membrane:
Hydrophobic Polyethersulfone
Gamma:
Up to 50kGy irradiation.
Autoclave:
One cycle up to 266°F (130°C) for 60 minutes (Polycarbonate with tear cover)
For autoclave or gamma irradiation applications
Cv Value Range:
0.04-0.27 (Standard*, ULT**, Luer***)
0.03-0.06 (Nano****)
Cv values represent the approximate expected flow rate in gallons per minute of water at room temperature for a 1 PSI pressure drop. The flow is generally constrained by the smallest diameter, which in some cases will be the termination diameter and not the Nominal Flow Path.
