8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames contain the entire single-use assembly and allow for confident handling, storage, and shipping of the 8.3L Celsius® Paks. The frames are reusable items and mandatory for the filling, freezing, storing, shipping, and thawing of 8.3L Celsius® Paks. 8.3L Celsius® Paks need to be assembled to their respective protective frames before being processed through the different operations of the Celsius® CFT platform.

Protected tubings and connectors

8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames immobilize the tubings and connectors throughout the entire product life cycle. Once assembled to the frames, the drain line of the 8.3L Celsius® Paks is positioned and maintained inside the tubing channel along the frame side with retention tabs. The 8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames have a pocket for an aseptic connector located at the base of the frame end. This pocket provides support for a 8.3L Celsius® Pak equipped with Opta® as the outlet connector on the drain line.

Shock absorbers to prevent frozen bags from tipping

Four foam bumpers are located at the top of the 8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames to cushion the frozen 8.3L Celsius® Paks during tip-over impacts and during end-to-end impacts. Tip-over tests have been run to validate this protection.

Large plastic handles for confident handling

8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames have large plastic handles that are molded into the frame end for easy manipulation.

Fits perfectly with the side shape of the frozen Celsius® Paks, holding ice blocks & preventing relative motion

The concave geometry of the ends in 8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames was designed to follow the contour of the ice block when frozen. In this way the ice block is supported during shocks and cannot shear away from the 8.3L Celsius® Pak Frames. The result is that the frozen Celsius® Paks can be successfully transported in a vertical configuration.
