The polypropylene Reducing Cross from Contour BioSolutions features four connection points in an X-shaped configuration, enabling multi-directional flow transitions between different pipe sizes. These crosses integrate seamlessly with our range of elbows, tees, caps and other essential parts designed for efficient yet flexible construction of single-use technology systems.
Bioprocessing and pharmaceutical applications adhere to a non-negotiable standard for sterility, driven by stringent guidelines established by regulatory bodies and the integral drive for the highest product quality and safety. All system components fabricated by Contour BioSolutions rely solely on robust, FDA-compliant materials with the option of gamma irradiation to ensure thorough sterilization. This meticulous approach dramatically reduces contamination risks and instills unwavering confidence among our customer base that relies on our reducing cross for critical bioprocessing operations.
Our Reducing Cross represents the intersection of function and efficiency, engineered to withstand the rigors and dynamics of contemporary facilities for single-use or limited-run production. Each Reducing Cross features standard TC flange compatibility meeting ASME-BPE specifications, providing leak-proof, resilient interfacing with other components. This creates a seamless, robust transition within your SUT while protecting cells and sensitive products through elimination of sharp internal angles.
