RoSS^®/ PROTECT

The right material at the right place – what we can learn from oysters.

Tough protected & tamper evident during seed train intensification!

The well tried-and-tested single use bag gets its 100% secure and compact shell for upstream.

In the first place, the single use bag will be covered by soft 3D foam, which provides a protective embedding as well as damping in case of vibrations.

Furthermore, the volume of the bag or of the liquid contained within can be expanded during the freezing process. This allows for a perfect adaption, which in turn maximizes the protective effect.

The frames of the RoSS^® unit are made of heavy duty plastic that withstands even the lowest temperatures and makes up the static frame of RoSS^®. Apart from the guide rails for the stainless steel top and bottom, the frame contains ergonomically shaped grip plates for safe and intuitive handling.

The RoSS^® top and bottom are made of high quality stainless steel with the following three advantages:

1. Maximum durability and strength.
2. When in direct contact with the bag, these features offer the ideal basis for an effective initial and ongoing freezing process. Furthermore, they enable a consistent and gentle defrosting or thawing process.
3. Thanks to the right compounds, tolerances and material strengths of the stainless steel top and bottom, the RoSS^® construction allows for only minimal vibration.
   It also reduces the tension in the structure of the single use bag and offers shock absorbent protection.

Facts:

• Adjustable for all 2D single use bags (e.g. Thermofisher, Entegris, Sartorius, ...) and all sizes up to 50 liters
• Robust, closed and tamper-evident construction
• 3D foam offers additional space and protection for the sensitive compound of the raw bag and tubing – complete immobilization <0 °C / <32 °F
• Space for sterile connectors and long hoses
• Space for satellite samples / ID bags
• Steel plates on the top and bottom for consistent and quickest possible freezing and defrosting times
• High density, which means a reduction of required freezer space capacity
• Easy handling during the recycling process – no composite materials
• Bag can be visually checked/inspected after filling and before dispensing

RoSS.KSET/ PROTECT

The equivalent of RoSS for small scales - hard, manipulation-safe shell!

Scale down to one single drop of drug substance! RoSS.KSET offers the protection for drug substances between 1 ml to 500 ml.
For anything above, RoSS can protect one or multiple small single use bags in one shell.

In RoSS.KSET, single use bags are covered with a first layer of soft 3D foam. This offers protection and dampens shocks. Furthermore it allows for an expansion of the liquid volume and the bag in the freezing process. An innovative and intuitive sealing system is a further feature to warrant functionality and safety.

The RoSS.KSET unit is made of high-density stainless steel. The container can be locked and sealed, while an inspection window enables visibility of all product specific data. This guarantees absolute protection against manipulation and maximum transparency as well as intuitive handling at the same time.
