The FlowArt 13mm Vial Swabable Needle Free Valve for Vial Access is a compact, sterile, needle‑free access device designed to support controlled, closed‑system withdrawal of medications from small‑finish vials. Manufactured by Progressive Medical, this adapter provides a secure interface between the vial and syringe, helping clinicians maintain aseptic technique during medication preparation in anesthesia, pharmacy, and infusion settings.
The AV4013 Vial Adapter is engineered with a validated 7‑day microbial ingress barrier, allowing the medication vial to remain protected after initial access. Once the adapter is applied, the closed, needle‑free system helps maintain vial integrity for up to seven days
Engineered for precision and contamination prevention, the 13mm adapter eliminates the need for traditional needles when accessing compatible vials. Its low‑profile design supports efficient medication draws, reduces touch‑contamination risk, and aligns with facility protocols for safe medication handling.
