PSL’s innovative split valve containment solution, the ChargePoint, forms a new business unit ‘ChargePoint Technology’. The ChargePoint product line that forms part of the Powder Systems Limited range of process solutions has now launched as ‘ChargePoint Technology’, an independent business unit of Powder Systems Limited.

The patented ChargePoint split butterfly valve has been a successful part of the PSL product range for over 10 years since it was originally developed in conjunction with GSK in 1996. The decision to separate the powder transfer technology from the rest of PSL’s activities will enable the new business unit to focus and expand, allowing the ChargePoint products to reach their full potential. The launch of a new website, www.thechargepoint.com, and a fresh new brand identity highlights the ChargePoint’s new found independence.

The precision-engineered valve is an ideal addition to a wide variety of applications from reactor vessel charging to contained sampling, from small additions to bulk IBC discharge for maximum containment efficiency and effectiveness, reflected by the range of split valve products and ancillary systems:
• Split butterfly valves for containment to OEL of <1μg/m³
• Pressure rated split valve from full vacuum to 6BarG
• Sterile powder transfers
• Docking systems
• Clean In Place systems for valve and vessel/container/IBC
• Rigid and flexible containers
• Manual and automated container handling devices

In addition to the advancing portfolio of innovative containment systems, ChargePoint Technology offers a range of complimentary services:
• After sales technical support and onsite service
• Spare parts management and upgrades
• Preventative maintenance
• Containment consultation
• Operation and maintenance training
• Validation

The ChargePoint is now a globally recognised high containment solution with over 1000 systems installed worldwide, at 100% of the worlds top 20 pharmaceutical companies. Continual research and development has enabled it to maintain this strong position within the marketplace. The formation of ChargePoint Technology presents the opportunity to diversify the range further in the direction of new markets such as the food & beverage industry and the increasingly important biopharmaceutical sector.
