Biosealer® TC Aseptic Tube Sealing Device
Automated Aseptic Thermoplastic Tubing Disconnection
Progressive biomanufacturing processes require advanced tools to reliably disconnect components. The Biosealer® Total Containment (TC) is an automated heat sealer for disconnecting thermoplastic tubing in an aseptic operation maintaining sterile fluid paths. The Biosealer® TC handles disconnections between disposable assemblies used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes and individual components of assemblies, even in non-sterile environments, while maintaining the product’s sterility.
- Use tube sizes from 1/4" to 1" OD — no accessory needed
- Dry, wetted or liquid-filled tubes
Preset for sealing up to 6 sizes of the industry’s 5 most-used TPE tubing types*
- Lightweight
- Goes with operator to disconnection site
- Use in tabletop or hanging mode
- 20 mm wide seal for robust disconnection
- Operator uses embedded cutting guide for scissor snip

Four Easy Steps to a Strong Seal
Step 1
Insert TPE Tubing
Insert the TPE tubing in the device where the sterile disconnection is desired.
Step 2
Press Start
One click on the touch screen is sufficient to start the sealing process. Just follow the instructions displayed.
Step 3
Remove TPE Tubing
When the sealing process is complete, the lid automatically reopens.
Step 4
Cut the Sealed TPE Tubing
After visual inspection of the sealing, use scissors to cut through the guideline on the sealed tubing. Done!
