- Developed for Microalgae and Cyanobacteria due to the Photoperiod system
- It can be used for filamentous fungi and other microorganisms
- Patented dimensions that maximize oxygen transfer
- Work flexibility, using Air-Lift agitation (flow director) or bubble column
- Ideal for establishing protocols and initial studies with microalgae
- Gain in biomass, productivity and efficiency due to automation of control and asepsis during the cultivation process
- Study of the nutritional composition, metabolism and biochemistry of microalgae.
- Reaction Vessel: Borosilicate glass with a 316L stainless steel jacketed base
- Temperature Control: Through a water jacket integrated into the 316L stainless steel base
- Operating Temperature: Refrigerant fluid +7°C to 60°C
- Total Volume: 3 L / 7.5 L / 15 L
- Working Volume: 2 L / 5 L / 10 L
- Lid: 316L stainless steel with 304 stainless steel knob closures
- Lid Ports: Ports for temperature, pH, dO2, dCO2 sensors or spectroradiometer. Four single ports for acid, base, antifoam and nutrient addition; adjustable foam level sensor; adjustable sampling outlet; septum; and 316L stainless steel reflux condenser
- Sealing: FDA-approved Viton O-ring
- Sampling System: Syringe-based, contamination-free system with autoclavable reservoir
- Agitation: Pneumatic, by directional movement of the upward gas flow (usually air)
- Vessel Dimensions: D = 220 mm × H = 470 mm (without condenser)
