Non-DEHP Tygon S3™ E-LFL Tubing for laboratory, food and beverage, and biopharmaceutical applications is now phthalate-free.
Tygon S3™ E-LFL Tubing offers the longest flex life of any clear Tygon® tubing, and reduces downtime due to pump failure. It provides broad chemical resistance and is excellent for laboratory applications. Contains no BPA or phthalates.
Saint-Gobain is proud to be among the first companies to offer sustainable flexible tubing products. The bio-based Tygon S3™ line combines high-performance standards with eco-friendly tubing design. This new non-DEHP tubing is the best performing peristaltic pump tubing, with no industry equivalent. It has been tested rigorously to ensure it meets the same physical standards as the old Tygon® LFL tubing, including 1,000 hours of peristaltic pump tubing life at 0 psi back pressure, low particulate spallation, and chemical resistance.
The crystal-clear Tygon S3™ E-LFL tubing is formulated specifically for use in peristaltic pump applications. It offers even pump life not only at 0 psi, but also at back pressure up to 25 psi. With its superior flex life characteristics, the tubing reduces production downtime due to pump tubing failure. Testing has demonstrated reduced particle spallation, which eliminates the need for frequent downstream filter replacement and diminishes the risk of sensitive-fluid contamination. This is critical in several applications, such as pharmaceutical, high purity chemicals, cosmetics, and food.
The benefits of using this tubing formulation include non-aging and broad chemical resistance properties. This enables users to utilize the new tubing for transferring chemicals, cleaning agents, and bactericides without danger of corrosion (as with metals) or oxidation (as with rubber). It is safe and non-toxic, and can be sterilized through conventional autoclave methods (Steam 30 minutes at 15 psi, 121 °C) and Ethylene Oxide. It can be produced in up to a 6" (15.6 cm) inside diameter, ideal for bulk transfer applications.
Certificaciones: Tygon S3™ tubing complies with FDA, NSF, 3-A, meets USP Class VI, ISO 10993, Japan Food Sanitation Law # 370/1959, REACH, 1935/2004/EC and 10/2011/EU for foods and beverages. Tygon S3™ tubing products do not contain chemicals listed in California's Proposition 65.
