Abstract: A flow distribution device for bioprocess systems, comprising: ?—a flow distribution manifold (12; 112; 212; 312) comprising: ?o at least four fluid connection tubes (14), wherein each fluid connection tube (14) comprises a first end (18) for fluid connection and an opposite second end (20) ?o a central common compartment (30; 130; 230; 330) to which the second ends (20) of each of the fluid connection tubes (14) are connected, whereby the first ends (18) of each of the fluid connection tubes (14) can be in fluid communication with the central common compartment (30; 130; 230; 330) ?—at least three pinching members (41) which are provided in connection with one fluid connection tube (14) of the flow distribution manifold (12; 112; 212; 312) each, wherein each of said pinching members (41) can be controlled into at least a first and a second position, wherein in the first position for each of the pinching members (41) the pinching member pinches one of the fluid connection tubes (14) such that fluid flow is pr

Abstract: The present invention relates to a reconfigurable bioprocessing system (80) operable to perform a predetermined set of bioprocessing operations therein. The reconfigurable bioprocessing system (80) comprises a base unit (60) comprising a plurality of valve actuators (102). At least one of the plurality of valve actuators (102) is operable to releasably engage with at least part of a pinch valve cassette (103, 203) to control fluid flow through the pinch valve cassette (103, 203). At least part of the pinch valve cassette (103, 203) is removably attachable to the base unit (60) and the pinch valve cassette (103, 203) is provided adjacent to said plurality of valve actuators (102).

Abstract: A flow distribution device for bioprocess systems, comprising: a flow distribution manifold (12; 112) comprising: at least four fluid connection conduits (14), wherein each fluid connection conduit (14) comprises a first end (18) for fluid connection and an opposite second end (20), and wherein at least three of the fluid connection conduits comprise a membrane (19a) and a valve seat (19b), which membrane (19a) can be put in at least two different positions in relation to the valve seat (19b) for allowing or preventing fluid flow between the first end (18) and the second end (20) of the fluid connection conduit (14); and a central common compartment (30) to which the second ends (20) of each of the fluid connection conduits (14) are connected, whereby the first ends (18) of each of the fluid connection conduits (14) can be in fluid communication with the central common compartment (30) and wherein the fluid connection conduits (14) are entering the central common compartment (30) from at least three different
