6.4 Harvest/Drain

Valve

The BioFlo 4500 is equipped with a manually-operated, re-sterilizable,
plunger-type drain valve

(see drawing below)

. The bottom drain port with valve

is located on the centerline of the vessel, and is equipped with a ¼” quick-connect
fitting for aseptic transfer of culture broth. The quick-connect fitting is housed
inside a port steam cap that allows for re-sterilization after use. A steam valve
allows cleaning or re-sterilization of the valve while the harvest/drain valve is
closed.
