Solaris - Model I-Series -Industrial Scale Bioreactors / Fermentors
Solaris offers tremendous flexibility within production scale fermentor and bioreactor systems. Each I-Series industrial scale project is fully specified for complexities associated with each application. Our large scale focused team closely collaborates with end users and engineers to ensure all specifications are best suited for each process. From 250 L to 30,000 L vessels and beyond - Solaris offers tailored turn-key industrial scale systems.
- Flexibility & willingness to accept most fermentation & cell culture application projects to 30,000L + scales.
- Top or bottom mounted agitation & various impeller configurations.
- Agitation online absorbed Torques (Nm) and Power (W) available.
- Re-sterilizable addition system (utilizing steam bridge.)
- Double jacket (side/bottom), heat exchangers & recirculating pump for most efficient heat transfer & optimal temperature control.
- Automatic mechanical seal lubrication with steam condensate loop.
- Tri-Clamp stainless steel pipe fittings.
- 19’’ colored touch screen industrial HMI utilizing powerful & intuitive SBC16 controlling software.
- HMI can be located anywhere: attached, remotely located, or multiple stations can be installed.
- Digital online DO, pH, conductivity, &/or ORP sensor management utilizing Hamilton ARC Modbus communication.
- Cell density: OD or VCD/permittivity probe integration available.
- Other parameters available including weight, CO2, etc.
- Peristaltic pump options for feed, pH control, etc.
- Multiple mass flow controller integration.
- Flexible options for data export & management.
Thermal mass flow controllers (MFC) allow precise flow rate control of individual gasses. Up to 5 MFCs can be configured within each unit & integrated to the controlling software. This enables flexible aeration options for a wide range of applications.
Various agitator configurations are key to match to each process. For example, in high oxygen demand fermentation, a Rushton style impeller system may be utilized, whereas in more shear sensitive cell cultivation, a axial style impeller may be better suited.
The powerful software & control platform allows precise cascade adjustment of multiple parameters to manage gas transfer, allowing better maximization of OTR, kLa, etc.
