Pepperl+Fuchs’ newly enhanced sterility compliant workstations for aseptic installations provide a germ-free environment and offers minimal down-time for set-up and maintenance. The aseptic operator workstation is designed for use in MES, batch/process control, and building management functions. The unit features a flush 316L stainless steel enclosure, an ergonomically angled hygienic keyboard and an industrial-grade monitor with an FDA-grade silicone gasket.
While traditional OIT installations require six to eight hours of installation, Pepperl+Fuchs says its aseptic workstations’ caulk-free design can be installed in 30-minutes. This rapid installation removes the OITs from critical path in new installations and allows for shorter commissioning and operations to begin.
Pepperl+Fuchs aseptic workstations are certified for use in general purpose and Class I, Division 2 and Class II, Division 2 classified areas, satisfy Class 100 (ISO 5) requirements and are Grade A/B compatible.
Ideally suited to any wall, spring-loaded wall clamps anchor the unit housing in even the most shallow spaces, and the door simply mounts to internal hinges. The installation process provides an air/bacteria seal between the door and the shell, and between the door and the wall. Once installed, communication and power connected in minutes and operation can begin.
