Abstract:
A method for controlling at least one valve provided to a tube in a bioprocess flow system, said method comprising the steps of: —controlling the at least one valve to be in a first state, which is an open state when a flow through the tube should be allowed; —controlling the at least one valve to be in a second state during some parts of a process run in the system, said second state is a closed state were a first closing force is provided; and—controlling the at least one valve to be in a third state during some parts of a process run in the system, said third state is a closed state were a second closing force is provided which is a higher force than the first closing force.
