Engineered for Performance
High-Containment Pack-Off Solution
Dec proposes a revolutionary solution when it comes to packing toxic API products.
Final API powders must be packed under a controlled atmosphere and at the same time operators must be protected from product exposure.
Usually the packing system is installed in a clean room and contained by an enclosure.
The aim of this system is to enable the final packing of APIs in a contained and GMP manner without the requirement of a clean room around the filling area.

High Containment Pack-Off Systems
The system prevents product contamination from the outside atmosphere as well as operator exposure at all times. This concept, validated by competent authorities, allows to handle OEB 5 materials (0.1-1 µg/m3 ) as it comprises primary and secondary containment with an additional level of safety.
The plant consists of a compact glove box including an integrated CLS Continuous Liner System. The cabin includes a laminar flow system and a lifting system to seal the drum to liner head.
The glove box includes an inlet and an outlet HEPA filter and can be set under positive or negative pressure according to process requirements.
The drums are brought into the pack-off cabin and are then sealed by the pneumatic lifting system. An external liner is used to connect/disconnect the drums in a contained manner. The area below the glove box is closed from three sides.
The rear panel is provided with an outward air flow preventing contamination of this area from external impurities or an inward air flow during the filling of the drum when handling highly toxic powders.
The continuous liner cartridge can also be changed in a contained manner and in order to facilitate the installation of the liner, two operators can work together from each side of the unit.
This system can be installed directly under the process equipment to be discharged or the powder can be transferred by using PTS Powder Transfer System® when installed in a remote area.
Options include load cells for precise dosing when using PTS with DosiValve®, a mill or a sieve integrated in the filling line and automated, representative sampling out of the system by using MPTS Sampling Device which is usually installed next to the pack-off system.
The whole system can be fully cleaned in place and is suitable for ATEX zone 1/21.
Contained Pack-Off Station for Drums and Bags
Contained Pack-Off System (CPS) is a GMP-compliant solution designed for the safe and contained filling of pharmaceutical and chemical powders into liners or bags. It uses specially folded continuous liners, up to 80 m long, which minimize operator exposure and minimize operator exposure while preventing product contamination during bag change over.
Depending on the powder properties and the closure method used (clips or welding), containment levels of less than 1 µg/m³ can be achieved.
The system can be installed directly at the discharge point of processing equipment or mounted on a frame equipped with load cells for weighing. Additional features include rollers for easy handling, vent filters, liner inertisation, and dosing devices for accurate product dispensing.

Liners are manufactured and folded in an ISO 5 cleanroom environment and can be gamma irradiated for sterile applications. Their unique side-folding design allows cartridges that are 2–3 times longer than standard continuous liner systems, providing increased capacity and operational efficiency. Pre-folded liners are available in various sizes and supplied in protective PE bags.
