WARNING!
Risk of uncontrolled leakage of microorgan-
isms!
Build-up of excessive pressures in the vessel can
cause hoses to detach or burst.
Therefore:
– Never allow the pressure to exceed the required
overpressure.
– Check that all hoses/tubes are securely seated
and that the hose/tube connections can with-
stand the pressure.
3) Discharge or transfer by generating an overpressure
If a harvest tube is used, the contents of the vessel can also
be transferred into a sterile vessel using overpressure. There-
fore, shut off the exit gas line with a clamp and switch on the
gassing system. Set the gas flow rate to a low value and in-
crease in small increments, if necessary.
NOTICE!
It is essential that the reagent lines are shut off be-
forehand!
