Description

AgileConnect female Luer connectors (CLH2 and CLH4) join 1/8″ or 1/4″ tubing to standard medical devices—syringes, valves, probes, sampling systems, and manifolds—through a secure, leak-free Luer Lock coupling. They are made of medical-grade polypropylene.

The syringe connectors let you draw fluid with a syringe from a closed system without compromising the integrity of the process or the product. They have a 1/4″ hose barb inlet and two outlet options: female Luer Lock (CTQ1) or a straight syringe outlet (CTQJ1). They are used for intermediate or final samples, in bioreactors, manifolds, or containers, and in quality control.

Both comply with USP <88> Class VI, USP <87>, and FDA 21 CFR, are TSE/BSE-free, and are double-bagged for entry into an ISO 7 cleanroom. The Luer connectors can be autoclaved at 121 °C or gamma irradiated at 25 to 45 kGy; the syringe connectors, gamma irradiated.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the CTQ1 and the CTQJ1?

The outlet: the CTQ1 has a female Luer Lock outlet and the CTQJ1 a straight syringe outlet. Both have a 1/4″ (6.4 mm) hose barb inlet and are sterilized by gamma irradiation.

What tubing are the female Luer connectors for?

The CLH2 is for 1/8″ (3.2 mm) tubing, and the CLH4 for 1/4″ (6.4 mm).

How are they sterilized?

The female Luer connectors, in an autoclave at 121 °C or by gamma irradiation at 25 to 45 kGy. The syringe connectors, by gamma irradiation.
