The Flexicon PF7 peristaltic tabletop aseptic liquid filling machine from Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG), Wilmington, Mass, is designed for precision dispensing by weight or volume using the company’s Accusil tubing. The PF7 is designed to work with such single-use fluid paths as asepticsu, thus removing the risk of cross contamination. Users can change the fluid path in less than 60 seconds. The PF7 comes programmed with recommended filling parameters. Users can adapt filling parameters to maximize accuracy for their application needs; up to 200 user-programmable ‘recipes’ can be stored and password protected for future use. A user interface, featuring large keys and a color display, aids operation. At the heart of all Flexicon systems is the low shear, gentle pumping action of peristaltic fillers, which ensure the product is transferred undamaged and with high precision. The machine offers repeatable filling of volumes from as low as 0.2 mL up to 250 mL, with accuracy better than ±0.5%, to prevent costly overfilling.
