“The external handles of the DPTE®-FLEX perform dual functions – unlocking/locking and opening/closing – all accessible from outside the enclosure, says Anneke Evers, Director Aseptic Transfer Portfolio at Getinge. ”When combined with a sleeveless DPTE-BetaBag®, this solution improves the manufacturing processes by eliminating the need for traditional glove ports.”
Developed to align with Annex 1 guidelines, DPTE®-FLEX ensures seamless compliance with regulatory requirements.
“The fully mechanical, interlocked system provides a safe and user-friendly connection and disconnection of the DPTE® Beta part,” Anneke adds. “With an intuitive design, it enhances workflow efficiency while improving operator ergonomics.”
The usability and safety advantages of the DPTE®-FLEX include a small footprint and the same installation diameter as the DPTE®-XS Alpha port, a fully controlled alpha door movement, a large 160° opening angle and the possibility to choose a funnel and internal opening as options.
First introduced 60 years ago, Getinge’s DPTE® system revolutionized sterile transfer technology. The DPTE®-FLEX now expands Getinge’s range of alpha ports, offering manufacturers greater flexibility and enhanced sterility assurance across a variety of production environments.
