PILOT FERMENTER - FMT PI SERIES

Fermentec's medium-scale and small-scale pilot fermenters are good for producing high-value precision fermentation goods or research.

Pilot fermenters that are designed and produced to ASME-BPE standards to satisfy international standards cause no corrosion or abrasion, minimize material quality degeneration through delicate processing processes, and are produced after being approved as pressure vessels that are safe in high-temperature and high-pressure situations.

The compact pilot fermenters can be installed in narrow spaces or research rooms, and can be easily operated and maintained and repaired due to their automated systems and proper arrangement of devices. They have adopted the highest-standard controllers to secure precise control and reliability of operation data, and their control program of the highest technology in the industry guarantees improved results.

Fermentec's spirit of putting customers' safety first is reflected in the control system and the multiple safety systems adopted for their vessel part.

Features

A touch screen computer with HMI that can be conveniently operated PLC adopted as a main control system Loaded with an interlocking control program to enable the cultivation of various conditions DO interlocking function - Agitation Speed FEED interlocking function - dissolved oxygen, supply time PH interlocking function - feed rate, dissolved oxygen A controller with guaranteed reliability has been adopted. STS316L Vessel + STS304 Jacket (first-class pressure vessel) An agitation system: mechanical seal or magnetic drive was used. Various nozzles made with precisely processed STS 316 and parts guarantee the highest level of confidence. Elegant design for easy repair and cleaning
