ChargePoint Technology Opens Closed Powder Transfer Facility

ChargeBag XL: New 3D powder transfer bags have been developed to increase the range of sizes available to ChargePoint customers for batch transfers in excess of 150L in volume in API, OSD and aseptic production. Using the proprietary HiPure ULP7 film, the 3D powder takes the current range of 2D bags beyond 40L capacity for the same effective and efficient powder handling at enhanced scales.  

ChargeBag QF (Quick-Fill): The ChargeBag QF (QuickFill) bag is designed to speed up the dispensing and transfer of bio-pharmaceutical and chemical powders in high throughput production environments such as buffer and cell culture media preparation. To reduce the risk of spillage and waste it features a large ‘full diameter’ top-opening for fast filling and easy fine tuning of target weight and a separate process connection port meaning the bag does not need to be rotated. In addition, its top-opening features and flexible skirt to protect the main bag chamber and filling stand from external contamination during this process to reduce clean up time. ChargeBag QF is available in both 2D and 3D format at volumes from 10 to 150L and is easy to implement into new or existing facilities. 

ChargePoint SUP: The larger sized DN150 (6”) Single Use Passive adds to the existing DN100 offering and connects to ChargePoint(R) Split Butterfly Valve (SBVs) with a 150mm aperture and supports the transfer of powders up to and beyond 150L in volume. The system can help contain a broad spectrum of products such as HPAPI’s (Highly Potent Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) and those with aseptic processing as part of a hybrid single-use / multi-use system ensuring manufacturers get both cost efficiency, flexibility and also performance. The SUP works in perfect harmony with the ChargeBag, in particular, welded directly to the new 3D ChargeBag XL for a complete single use container/closure combination. The SUP can also be supplied with a Tri-Clamp ferrule for connection to containers or other bag technology.
