Algaemaster 10 control
The Algaemaster 10 is a photo bioreactor - the perfect
equipment for scientists to re-create the ideal conditions for growing
phototrophic organisms such as microalgae. These are increasingly of interest
for translational science; e.g. drug discovery in the pharmaceutical industry.
Key features
- Ocean water resistant and completely autoclavable lid and
vessel
- Metal-free components for metal-sensitive organisms
- Material touching the product: borosilicate glass, PTFE,
Ultem®
- Computerized control of lighting, temperature, stirring, pH
and dosing of liquid or gas
- Customizable lid with nine receptacles
- Effortless data collection via USB drive
Key components
10 L jacketed reactor vessel
Quick fit connectors enable simple use of an IKA chiller
with the system. When using a temperature sensor or pH sensor a minimum working
volume of six liters is required.
Controller
The controller provides all features necessary for the
growing process of the organisms. Two large displays allow simple monitoring of
all software settings during trial run period. Nutrients and other liquids can
be added by using two peristaltic pumps. Gas is supplied by two gas flow
meters. The top and rear controllers provide different interfaces such as RS232
and USB to download data by connecting the device to a PC. With its slim
design, it can sit right next to the reactor on the bench.
LED light panels
Two panels for individual and variable lighting conditions
are included in the delivery. A total of four panels can be connected at once.
Lid
The customizable lid can be autoclaved. It is made of Ultem®
thermoplastic that has been tested for durability. Sensors such as pH or PT 100
for temperature are inserted through the lid using receptables (6, 8, 12 mm
openings; 1/2" NPT threaded).
Stirrer
The speed range of the stirrer is 10 - 100 rpm. The agitator
itself is PTFE-coated. The propeller elements are height-adjustable, making it
versatile to recreate different wave movement, depending on the species/sample.
