Robust, Precision-Crafted Vessels

 

  • Tank Construction: Fabricated from high-grade SUS316L stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance. Jackets utilize durable SUS304 stainless steel.
  • Optimal Geometry: Tank diameter-to-height ratio is carefully designed between 1:2 and 1:3 for efficient mixing and mass transfer.

 

Advanced Agitation & Process Control

 

  • Stirring Options: Choose between reliable top-mounted Mechanical Seal Agitation or advanced Magnetic Stirring.
  • Impeller System: Features two high-efficiency straight blade impellers coupled with a dedicated mechanical defoaming paddle. Four integrated baffle plates ensure optimal turbulence and mixing.
  • Precision Motor: Provides infinite speed variation from 70 to 1200 RPM with exceptional ±1% accuracy.

 

Sterile Operation & Gas Management

 

  • Inoculation: Safe and sterile introduction via Flame Protected Act and Vaccination Pressure Method.
  • Gas Inlet: Controlled via Rotameter, ensured sterile by an inline Sterile Filter, and distributed evenly via an Air Distributor.
  • Exhaust: Features a Stainless Steel Exhaust Condenser for efficient vapor handling and containment.

 

Unmatched Process Control & Monitoring

 

  • Temperature Accuracy: Maintains critical temperatures within a ±0.05°C range.
  • Quadruple Bioreactor System: Our unique design incorporates four fully sterilizable glass bioreactors, ideal for viscous media and solid microbial cultures, managed by a single controller.
  • Integrated Control: Each fermenter is managed via an In-line Controller featuring a vibrant 10-inch color touch screen. Monitor and adjust key parameters (pH, DO, Temperature, Stirring, Defoaming) in real-time for unparalleled process stability and efficiency.
  • Precision Feeding: Four dedicated peristaltic pumps per fermenter enable automated, precise addition of acids, bases, defoamers, and culture media.

 

Versatile Cell Culture Ready: Configured with the appropriate fittings, the GK Series is fully suitable for demanding mammalian and insect cell culture.
