EXCELL PROBES ARE THE PREFERRED BIOMASS/CELL GROWTH MEASUREMENT SOLUTION FOR END USERS AROUND THE WORLD
With applicability in a wide range of applications and scale, EXcell probes are deployed in many facilities as the go-to solution for biomass measurement, monitoring and control. Installed directly into bioreactors and vessels, EXcell probes provide real time measurement of biomass for use in discovery, process development and manufacturing. Furthermore, the same technology is transferable throughout scale up, simplifying validation by providing consistency of measurement throughout the whole process. EXcell probes are both insitu SIP and CIP compatible and autoclavable.
EXcell probes are available in a variety of lengths with a 12mm diameter format as well as in standard DN25 “Ingold” port design with a variety of o-seal position options. A comprehensive range of accessories for system integration, including retractable housings, local displays and interfaces for connection to control and supervisory data systems are available. Probe setup and configuration is through the Exner EXpert PC software package, connectable through USB.
Sensors are manufactured with surface quality suitable for pharmaceutical applications and are available with full material certification that meets hygiene regulations. All components meet FDA requirements. Whatever your biomass measurement needs, South Fork Instruments can help you select the best solution.
