Make: Scigenics Biotech Pvt Ltd.
Model: FM-7LS-213
- Sterilization in situ (SIP)
Able to sterilize the fermenter vessel, piping for inputs like air/gas, stirrer shaft etc., without disassembly. This ensures aseptic conditions. Scigenics lists "lab scale in situ sterilizable stirred tank fermenters" in its product range.
- Controlled temperature
Heating and cooling systems (jacketed or coil) to maintain culture temperature precisely. Likely with +/- tolerances (±0.1-0.5°C) for sensitive cultures.
- Agitation / mixing
A stirrer (top‑driven shaft, possibly bottom‑driven or magnetically sealed depending on model) to maintain homogeneity, ensure oxygen transfer, suspend cells if needed.
- Automated control & software
A controller (could be PLC or dedicated bioreactor controller) for setting setpoints, alarms, logging
- Cleanability and aseptic design
Features for CIP (Cleaning In Place) and sterilization: smooth surfaces, minimal “dead volumes”, properly sealed seals, ports for cleaning, possibly splash plates, etc.
- Safety features
Pressure relief or venting, safety interlocks, explosion/vacuum protection if the design calls for it (depending on anaerobic/aerobic process), temperature overshoot protection.
- Flexibility of culture mode
Ability to run batch and fed‑batch fermentation
