A data code etched directly on the connectors used in fluid handling systems will provide immediate access to part and batch numbers and product-specific URLs for technical data, instructional videos, product specifications and more, according to Colder Products Company (CPC).

CPC is introducing the AseptiQuik Connector enhanced product feature on March 21 at INTERPHEX.

“Traceability is critical, but the addition of this data code and the content to which it links adds an unprecedented level of useful information that is immediately accessible with a quick scan,” said John Boehm, CPC Bioprocessing Business Unit Manager.

Part and batch numbers are laser-etched directly on the AseptiQuik Connector and available via the data code. When the code is scanned, the user also sees a product-specific URL that links to additional technical data and specifications on materials, pressure and temperature ratings, sterilization compatibility and more.

To save time and facilitate proper assembly, the data code also links to product-specific videos showing assembly steps—no need to search elsewhere for instructions. Additional resources available through the URLs accessed through the data code include a validation report request option and an “Ask an Engineer” link for questions. 

CPC’s Data Code feature enhances the traceability of AseptiQuik Connectors for biopharma manufacturers and system integrators. The data code enhancement is initially available on the  G Series line and will be rolled out across all AseptiQuik Connectors in the coming months.
