Applications

In upstream processes such as buffer and media preparation or cell cultivation, BioPro FlowSU In-Line Flow Meters provide feedback in pump or dose feeding processes.

In downstream applications such as depth filtration, tangential flow filtration, in-line buffer formulation, or chromatography, BioPro FlowSU can be used to hygienically and precisely measure the flow. The sterilizable in-line flow meter can be easily integrated and combined with different pump types, such as Quattroflow® Single Use Pumps. The integrated bubble detection adds safety to air-sensitive applications.

  1. Minimal Shear: Straight flow-cell design has minimal impact on sensitive cells and proteins.

  2. Ease of Use: Every sensor size easily connects to a standard transmitter mount for seamless integration.

  3. Bubble Detector: Visual LED alarm as well as integrable into PLC.

  4. Calibration: Pre-calibrated for every sensor size, ensuring accuracy, seamless startup, and an adjustable calibration table.

  5. Transmitter: Easy-to-mount holder profile with integrated electronics.

  6. Smart Sensor: Single-use flow measurement and air-in-line detection with one sensor.

  7. Size: One transmitter size scales to all tubing sizes.

  8. Single Use: No regular recalibrations with the SU sensor.
