Unrivaled Features of the 5L Mechanical Stirring Glass Fermenter

The 5L mechanical stirring glass fermenter boasts unique features that makes it stand out from the numerous other fermenters in the market as explained below:

1. Intelligent Touch Screen Control

The BLBIO-5GJ is equipped with a 10-inch color touch screen display with an optional upgrade of the 15-inch touch screen display.

Easy to navigate app with instant monitor and adjustable parameters means that users will be able to track or regulate:

  • Stirring speed
  • pH levels
  • DO (Dissolved Oxygen) levels
  • Temperature
  • Feeding rate
  • Gas control
  • Alarm settings

Have you ever felt that the current control panels in your company are too complicated? When it comes to fermentation management, the BLBIO-5GJ offers nothing but ease, speed and efficiency.

2. Mechanical Stirring System

In the Mechanical Stirring Glass Fermenter, there is a direct-coupled mechanical drive which is of GJ type. Having the stirring rate of 50-1000 RPM, the fermenter provides the necessary shear force maintaining intact fragile cells at the same time. It uses:

  • 3 six-blade paddles (adjustable height)
  • 1 foam breaker to allow easy stirring so that there is no excessive foaming.

It does not matter if you are going to use mild movement to suspend mammalian cells or vigorous shaking to promote bacterial culture, this fermenter has got you covered!

3. World-Class Sensors

As for precision, Fermentor China does not leave anything to chance:

  • pH Control: Automatic acid/base addition via peristaltic pumps; accuracy ±0.1; sensors by Hamilton/Mettler (Switzerland).
  • DO Control: Oxygen at 0–150% ±3%; automatic blending of the gases; usage of Hamilton/Mettler DO sensors for its reliability.
  • Temperature Control: Automated with electric heating range from ambient +5°C to 70°C.

Worried about contamination? Thus, sterilization of the fermenter can be done off-site so that when it is returned into the lab it does not contaminate the lab and equipment that are used in other experiments or operations.

4. Flexible Gas and Feeding Systems

The rate of flow of the carrier gases, namely hydrogen and helium (1-2 vvm as read by rotameter) and feeding system of the precursors (Automatic through peristaltic pump) are made quite flexible. And, there are also anti-foam control mechanisms to ensure that the fermentation process proceeds as planned and without interference.

5. Expandable and Customizable

Need advanced functionalities? Customize your fermenter with:

  • Remote control options
  • Mass flow meters for automatic gas management
  • Sensors for ORP, turbidity (OD), biomass (live cell)
  • The extraction of gas analysis of the exhaust of the car, particularly for carbon dioxide and oxygen.
  • Level sensors
  • Printing capabilities

Why should you lower the standards of your fermentation platform when you can have a future-proof one?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)

Q1: What’s the difference between Mechanical Stirring Glass Fermenter and Magnetic Stirring Models?

A1: Mechanical stirring utilizes a directly connected shaft for the purpose of mixing, which results in a better mixing of the dense cultures. Magnetic stirrers are particularly suitable for cultures that need to be stirred gently.

Q2: What is the maximum temperature that you can bring for washing?

A2: The electric heating can heat from +5°C from the surroundings to 70 °C.

Q3: Is sterilization easy?

A3: Absolutely! The geometry of the glass vessel ensures that it can be autoclaved off-site; therefore, the autoclaving process is not complicated and can be easily done.
