About Bench Top Fermentor and Bioreactor System
Interface main control screen configuration so that calibration of pH, DO , temperature and bubble detection sensor can be handled simply .The program is applied to suit various culture environments and can be used simply. It has a compact design to enable various culture experiments even in a small laboratory. A self-diagnosis system that can record and maintain the fermentation process is applied, and it can be used by connecting to a PC for real-time recording and control. Controllable by easily connecting an external device to the fermenter controller.Advanced Vessel and Agitation DesignThe system incorporates a high-quality borosilicate glass vessel with corrosion-resistant stainless steel fittings, ensuring long-term reliability and purity. Users can choose between magnetic or mechanical drives for optimal agitation tailored to specific culture requirements. Both top- and bottom-mounted setups are available, supporting various research and pilot scale processes.
Precision Control and Real-Time MonitoringEquipped with dedicated sensor ports for pH, DO, temperature, and foam, the system facilitates continuous monitoring of key process parameters. The color touch screen PLC supports data logging, adjustable agitation (up to 1000 rpm), and audio-visual alarms to safeguard your cultures under changing conditions. Researchers benefit from enhanced process control and reproducibility.
Optimized Aeration and SterilizationSintered sparger with rotameter-regulated air/oxygen supply ensures efficient aeration. Sterilization is convenient and versatile - vessels can be autoclaved or sterilized in place (SIP), saving time and reducing contamination risk. The sterile exhaust condenser further maintains a safe operating environment, meeting the stringent demands of laboratory and pilot fermentations.
FAQ's of Bench Top Fermentor and Bioreactor System:
Q: How do I sterilize the Bench Top Fermentor and Bioreactor System, and which methods are supported?
A: The system supports both in-situ sterilization (SIP) and conventional autoclaving, allowing you to choose either method based on your workflow and safety needs. The autoclavable vessel and fittings, along with a low-maintenance mechanical stirrer seal, streamline regular cleaning and sterilization processes.
Q: What type of agitation and aeration can I expect with this bioreactor?
A: This bioreactor supports both magnetic and mechanical drive agitation, with top or bottom mounting to suit different culture types. Aeration is delivered through a sintered sparger and controlled by a rotameter, allowing precise air or oxygen supply for optimal microbial or cell growth.
Q: When should I use lighting for the vessel, and what options are available?
A: Lighting is recommended for phototrophic cultures that require controlled light exposure. On request, the system can be equipped with LED or lamp options to support such research applications in microbiology or plant cell studies.
Q: Where can I use this Bench Top Fermentor and Bioreactor System?
A: The system is designed for laboratory bench top use, suitable for academic research, pilot studies, biotechnology laboratories, and pharmaceutical development. Its moderate footprint and weight make it ideal for institutions requiring flexible, portable bioprocess solutions.
Q: What are the benefits of the integrated sensor ports and real-time control?
A: Dedicated sensor ports for pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature, foam, and level enable accurate and continuous monitoring. The real-time data display and logging functions facilitate precise control over your fermentation processes, improving reproducibility and experiment efficiency.
Q: How does the cooling and exhaust system improve experimental safety and performance?
A: The water jacket or external chiller compatibility allows consistent temperature control, vital for sensitive cultures. The sterile exhaust condenser maintains a contaminant-free environment within the bioreactor, protecting both product integrity and operator safety.
