The INFORS HT Labfors 5 Bioreactor, 3.6 L, MFC & Gas Analysis (525165) is a configured bench-top system for bioprocesses and enzymatic processes involving solid substrates. The package combines a 3.6 L total-volume culture vessel, high-torque direct drive, programmable air mass flow control, digital pH measurement and BlueVary exit-gas analysis.
Key Features
- Configured for solid substrates and enzymatic processes, supporting simultaneous saccharification and fermentation workflows involving high concentrations of raw materials
- 3.6 L total-volume culture vessel, supplied in the NW150 vessel configuration
- High-torque direct drive, providing 3.4 Nm of torque and a maximum stirring speed of 1000 min⁻¹
- Two-fold temperature control system, providing controlled temperature management during solid-substrate bioprocesses
- Large 40 mm headplate opening, allowing solids and semi-solid materials to be introduced into the culture vessel
- Single or parallel operation, with touch-screen control supporting configurations of up to six vessels
- Digital process instrumentation, supporting up to 24 monitored or controlled parameters per vessel
- Integrated signal input and output, enabling external measurement values and equipment such as additional pumps to be incorporated
- Programmable air mass flow controller, covering 0.05 to 5 NL/min through a 1/4 in. gas connection
- Digital pH measurement, using a 225 mm Hamilton EasyFerm Plus ARC sensor
- Integrated exit-gas monitoring, with a BlueVary analyser in the CO2-25 and O2-50 configuration and an exit-gas cooler
- Application-specific accessory package, including a Labfors 5 BioEtOH starter set, 250 mL reagent bottle, air tube with sterile sleeve and twistable piercing needle
Note: This listing represents the specific configured package assigned to part number 525165. Site utilities, installation requirements and any additional process sensors should be confirmed before ordering.
Benefits
