Biosealer CR6 is a battery operated sealing unit for EVA, PVC/EVA coextrusion and PVC blood bag tubes or sets for plasmapheresis.
Below are examples of seals on the three types of OriGen tubes:
Biosealer CR6 is comprised of three components:
Sealing handle with 6' coax cable
Power unit with batteries and control unit monitored by microprocessor
Battery charger
Sealing Recommendations:
Remove all moisture from the outside of the tube prior to sealing.
Never stretch the tube during sealing.
Seals should be made staight across, flat, and in line with the spike port wings. (see image below)
To ensure proper fit in cryostorage cassettes, place a heat seal on the donor tube as close to the stub tube as possible, below the top of the spike ports. (see image below)
Add a second seal closely above the first seal. The second seal should be no higher than the height of the two spike ports. (see image below)
Do not tear or pull seals apart as this can result in a jagged edge and may break open the seal, causing it to leak. Cut the sealed tube through the middle of the second (top) seal.
