FAQ

What sizes are available?

The MixOne is modular with an extensive component library of different sizes, tubes, fittings, etc. The one showed in the video is 40L. Please consult your sales rep for your particular needs.

What is the mixing difference between a stirbar and the MixOne?

Stirbars are typical lab mixers that have limited capacity and performance when it comes to mixing at production scale. The MixOne mixer platform is designed to meet and exceed the pharma needs at a production scale, with unparalleled mixing performance in combination with the TrueLev bearingless technology that eliminates any particulate shedding that is related to stir bars.

Is the window container shown in the video available as a product?

The container with a window is perfect for visual evaluation of your mixing performance. It is not a standard product, but it is available upon request. A typical application would be in your R&D evaluation step as a bridge before moving to product models without window. The window model does not come as irradiation compatible and because of that in most cases not suitable for production.

How do I control the MixOne interface?

The MixOne is easily operated by docking the container to the drive unit platform. The mixing system can be controlled in two ways:

Digital through either a handheld control panel or through your existing external control system
Through PLC

What are the application purposes of the MixOne configurations showed in the video?

The MixOne container in the video is made for low shear mixing of media that requires a sterile and aseptic environment. After filling trough the filling line it can remain in its closed system for storage. When the product is to be used, the Mix one container is simply reinstalled on the platform and the mixer turned on to resuspend the product. To check the quality of the product and the mixture the system is equipped with four aseptic samples lines made of C-flex tubing that can be welded on a sampling container. To facilitate ease of use during operation and installation, it is equipped with tube holders locating, protecting, and preventing tangling of the tubes during handling. The vent line has a pressure sensor to leak test the unit before use. The container has a low point drain line for easy emptying with an aseptic quick connect at the end of the line.

What are the main components of the MixOne?

Carboy single-use assembly
Platform
Control cabinet

How do I install my MixOne?

Carefully place the Single-Use Assembly on the Drive Unit Platform so that the Tank Plate is positioned on top of the Drive Unit and the feet of the Single-Use Assembly are placed in the corresponding holes on the Top Plate of the Drive Unit Platform.

Make sure that Single-Use Assembly is resting on the bottom of the carboy while positioned on the Drive Unit Platform and feet are in the four locating holes. It should not be resting on its feet or the tank plate. The Single-Use Assembly should be perpendicular to the platform, otherwise, the mixing properties may be reduced.
