The Steritest^® Symbio ISL Pump suitable for 2 media containers is uniquely designed to fit with round and oval isolator cut-outs and can be installed in multiple ways. In the standard configuration this pump is being used, integrated into an isolator, either in a low or high integration. Based on the configuration chosen, especially designed integration kits (sold separately) are offered. There are two integration kits available, one for the round cut-out and another for the oval cut-out design. However, thanks to its versatility it can also be used in a bench-top configuration for the use in a laminar flow hood, a biosafety cabinet, or in a clean room.
The automatic closure of the pump head eliminates the risk of glove pinching and ensures reliable splitting of the liquid sample. As ergonomic working conditions are key, the drain tray and bottle holder can be easily and flexibly positioned around the pump head for easy access in limited-space environments. Furthermore, the drain tray is designed to minimize splashing under the canister base. The pump′s convenient pressure detection system which can be run in two different modes (pressure monitoring and pressure regulation), reduces the risk of false test result and sterility test interruption. For highest precision and reproducible sampling also of smallest volumes, the pump has a convenient timer function available. To further ensure test reproducibility and to be always compliant with the defined test procedures, the respective test methods can be created on a PC using the Steritest^® Symbio Software. These test methods will then be transferred to the pump and will lead the operator through the workflow step-by-step.
A wide range of optional accessories are also offered to improve the sterility testing workflow.
