Compared With The Alternatives
| Stainless steel storage tank | A standard storage tank is not designed to hold sterile product; the aseptic tank maintains sterility with a sealed pressure manway, aseptic stirrer and controlled sterile air. |
|---|---|
| Filling directly from the steriliser | Direct filling works only while both run; an aseptic tank lets one stop without stopping the other. |
Use Guide
- Size the buffer from how long the filler typically stops
- Sterilise the tank before every production run
- Keep the sterile air system maintained, since it protects the whole batch
- Use the load scale reading to reconcile production rather than estimating
