TUBINGTECHNOLOGYSelect your tubeChoosing thePERFECT tubefor all of yourapplicationsWatson-Marlow is the only peristaltic pumpmanufacturer in the world to manufacture itsown tubing, optimising our tubing tolerancesand formulation to deliver the best processpump performance. In a peristaltic pump,the tubing largely dictates pump and systemperformance: Its restitution creates suction,its strength resists pressure, its flexresistance determines pumping life, its boredefines the flow rate, its wall thicknesscontrols pumping efficiency and its purityprotects your product from contamination.Watson-Marlow offers tubing in five food orpharmaceutical grade materials and overforty sizes, giving an extraordinary range ofapplication capability.Pumpsil platinum-cured siliconetubing is manufactured by Watson-Marlow in our ownsilicone-dedicated ISO1644-1 class 7 (class J/10,000)cleanroom. Developed specifically for biopharmaceuticalapplication, Pumpsil carries full biopharmaceuticalcertification USP Class VI and ISO10993 and complies withFDA 21CFR177.2600 for food contact. Pumpsil is entirelyfree of 2,4 DCBA and other leachables associated withperoxide-cured silicone and is post-cured to remove linearand cyclic siloxanes, cytotoxic materials which can leach outof other manufacturers’ non-post-cured platinum-curedtubing. Pumpsil ® has an ultra-smooth bore to control proteinbinding and bacterial growth, making it ideal for productionapplications where there is long-termcontact with the process fluid. OurLaserTraceability provides an inkfree,indelibly etched record of partnumber, lot number and use-by dateright on the tubing. This means thatlot traceability is carried through frombox to bag to the tube itself. Workingtemperature range: 20C to 80C.Translucent. Autoclavable.Bioprene ® is Watson-Marlow’sexclusive thermoplastic elastomer.Manufactured to high standards inits own thermoplastic dedicatedISO1644-1 class 7 (class J/10,000)cleanroom, Bioprene ® offers the bestcombination of purity, chemicalcompatibility and long pumping life.Bioprene is USP Class VI certified and meets FDArequirements 21 CFR 177.2600 and USDA standards forfood handling. High, medium and low pressure grades areavailable. Working temperature range 5C to 80C.Autoclavable. Can be sterilised by ethylene oxide.LoadSure ® Elements with Ultimate TraceabilityLoadSure ® elements are available with a range of performance characteristics formany applications – but all share features designed to work at their best indemanding hygienic processes.World-standard hygienic connectors in PVDF complete an assembly whichwelcomes autoclaving and steam in place procedures for cGMP. There are nowetted metallic components, cutting the risk of chloride attack.18
PureWeld XL ® thermoplastic elastomer contains noanimal-derived components and can be securely welded,allowing a connector-free fluid pathto be assembled in minutes. Ahigh quality tubing which can besterilised by gamma radiation,autoclave or ethylene oxide, it isideal for use in biopharmprocesses, providing long tubelife and very low internal spallationin peristaltic pumps. PureWeld is FDAapproved and carries USP Class VI certification.Pumpsil ® Bioprene ® PureWeld STA-PURESeries PCSSTA-PURESeries PFLLoadSure ® elements • • • •STA-PURE Series PCS has a uniquecomposite construction of silicone in aPTFE lattice giving it superior burstresistance up to 7 bar (100psi)and 18 times longer life thansilicone tubing. It producesvirtually no spalling,is USP Class VI approved andis classified as non-toxic.Working temperature range 0C to80C. Opaque white. Autoclavable, SIPand CIP compatible.STA-PURE Series PFLis effectively pumpable PTFE – ahigh performance composite ofPTFE and a high-gradefluoroelastomer – offeringextraordinary chemicalresistance, long life and veryhigh burst pressures.STA-PURE PFL is USP Class VIand food grade approved, making itsuitable for foods and pharmaceuticals aswell as aggressive chemicals.Continuous tubing • • •Meets or exceeds USPClass VI requirements• • • • •FDA regulations CFR 177.2600for contact with food• • • • •European Pharmacopoeia3.1.9• • •ISO 10993 • • •Up to 10,000 hourspumping life• • •High pressure capability(30-100 psi)• • •Low gas permeability • •Wide chemical resistance • • •LaserTraceability•High dispensing accuracy • • •Lot traceable from rawmaterial to finished product• • • • •Assured validationValidating a hygienic process is madeeasy with LoadSure ® elements. Allelement wetted parts are USP Class VIand ISO 10993 certified with alaser-etched lot number. LoadSure ®elements and continuous tubing aresupplied with a certificate of conformityand a validation pack is available uponrequest.Checking your choicewith an immersion testAlways conduct an immersion test beforechoosing a tube material for criticalapplications. Immerse a short length ofthe tubing or rubber sample (alwaysavailable from Watson-Marlow or itsdistributors) in a closed container of thefluid for 48 hours and then examine forsigns of attack, swelling, embrittlementor other deterioration.19
