FAQ
Yes. The Sterile Tube Fuser was designed to work with autoclaved/irradiated tubing.
Yes, on the Sterile Tube Fuser-Wet unit. C-Flex® tubing diameters of 1/4” and 7/16”
o.d. can be welded using interchangeable tubing holders.
Yes. It may be necessary to adjust the fan speed for the lower ambient temperature.
The weld forms a small ridge on the inside and outside surface. The inside ridge is typically about a 1 mm high and poses no significant flow restriction (similar to a barbed fitting). If you think the ridge is excessive, it can be reduced, but this may compromise the tensile strength of the welded connection.
In theory yes. We do not recommend reusing the blade because of the potential for cross-contamination and compromise of blade construction. The blade gets some tubing residue during operation and this must be cleaned thoroughly if the blade is to be reused.
No. Only thermoplastic tubing can be joined.
Check that the tubing is aligned properly. If not, return for service. Make sure you are letting the tubing cool completely before pulling at the weld. It takes 4 to 5 minutes for the full weld strength to develop.
