    Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting device (2) for connecting a container (F) containing a powder/granular product to an isolator (1) with a connecting opening (120), through which the container (F) is introduced into the isolator (1) for emptying as intended, wherein the connecting device (2) comprises:



    a holding device (220) being configured to receive the container (F) and hold it during connecting and emptying;
    a transfer device (210, 230) for transferring the holding device (220); and
    a control device for controlling the transfer device (210, 230); wherein
    the control device is configured to control the transfer device (210, 230) in such a way that it transfers the holding device (220) together with the container (F) from an initial holding position in which the container (F) is received in the holding device (220) as intended, into an emptying position such that at least an opening of the container (F), via which the powder/granular product is removed for emptying the container (F) as intended, is introduced into the isolator (1) through the connecting opening (120).

    Abstract: The invention relates to an isolator (1) for emptying a container (F) containing a powder/granular product, the isolator (1) comprising:



    a connecting device (1) for connecting a container (F) containing a powder/granular product to the isolator (1);
    a base body (100) which defines a connecting opening (120) via which an opening of the container (F) can be introduced at least in sections into an inner space of the base body (100) from an outside environment as intended wherein
    a lower ambient pressure is generated in the inner space of the base body (120) than in the outside environment, and wherein
    the connecting device (2) comprises a sealing device (250) arranged at the connecting opening (120) and having an adjustable sealing element (251) which can be adjusted in such a way that it

    is pressed against an outer wall of the container (F) to produce a sealed state and closes the inner space from the outside environment, and

    is released from the outer wall of the container (F) to produce an at least partially open state in such a way that a gap (S) is formed between the sealing element (251) and the outer wall of the container (F), wherein

    the gap (S) is formed in such a way that an air flow directed into the inner space of the base body (120) is generated due to the different ambient pressure.
