Program and holder codes
Each set of tubing holders is coded
so that the machine can recognize
the installed holder size. Each
holder can be programmed with up
to two tubing types with individual
cutting and welding temperatures
as well as timing and motion
control parameters. The programs
are stored in non-volatile memory
and will be retained even if power
is removed.
The LCD will show the hose type
selected as shown on the left.
Press MODE then right arrow
and enter the password “264”.
Press again the right arrow. To
change the hose type press up or
down. Press MODE again to go
back to the welding program.

The BioWelder® is designed to join thermoplastic tubing. Some of the tubing
brands that have been tested are listed below. The unit cannot be used to join
silicone tubing or PTFE.
Pharmed®
Ideal, very high purity tubing. Can be autoclaved or SIP.
Long life in peristaltic pumps. The standard BioWelder® is
optimized for Pharmed® BPT as hose type 1.
C-Flex®
Advantage of translucency and lower cost. Not as strong as
Pharmed®. Works fine in the BioWelder® but needs lower blade
temperature setting. In standard machines is C-Flex® 072, 082 and
374 set as hose type 2. There are many types of C-Flex® tubing
and each subtype can be optimized to best performance.
Sanipure®
Comparable with C-Flex® but with improved life time in
peristaltic pumps. Works fine with the BioWelder® but requires
a low blade temperature setting. On all standard BioWelder® units
is Sanipure® 60, BDF and AF installed as hose type 3.
FluiSoft
TM
AdvantaPure
AdvantaFlex®
In standard machine, set as hose type 2 (same than C-Flex®).
We will develop optimal welding programs for different thermoplastic tubing,
including the joining of dissimilar tubing upon request.
The Biowelder unit can be programmed with maximum 3 parameter sets. When
ordered without any mention, the Biowelder comes with C-Flex®, PHARMED® BPT
and Sanipure® 60. The unit can be ordered with other parameter sets. In that case,
please specify the parameter sets you want to have in the unit and the ones you
want to have removed.
