Efficient and precision gas flow control in biotechnology

Due to our experience we realize that most bio reactors are used for very critical and delicate processes where mass flow controllers need to be reliable, repeatable and flexible.

Gas flow control in biotechnology, Vogtlin

The quantities of fermentation gases strongly influence the mass transfer coefficient and there is no better way to precisely control gas flows than with thermal mass flow controllers from Vögtlin.

Bio reactors can be used for very critical and delicate processes where mass flow controllers need to be reliable, repeatable and flexible. It does not matter if you use perfusion, sparging, or immersed silicone tubing for your oxygenation, the amount of dissolved oxygen needs to be carefully controlled to get a perfect and repeatable pH control.

Your fermentation gases like CO and H2 quantities strongly influence your mass transfer coefficient and there is no better way than to precisely control your gas flows than with mass flow controllers. 

The Vögtlin mass flow instruments guarantee flexibility due to:

  • Turndown of over 1 : 100 (application dependent)
  • Up to 10 different programmed gases in every mass flow meter
  • Strong valve that can handle a wide range of inlet and outlet pressures

Vögtlin delivers simple stand-alone solutions for bench-top systems or IP67 (NEMA6) and EX-certified units that can be installed in a lab where regular wash-downs with high pressure waterjet cleaners are required.
