Field of application
The OUSBT66 NIR absorption sensor monitors cell growth, biomass processes, algae systems and crystallization processes. It provides you with reliable, precise measured values in real-time to optimize your process and your product yield. The sensor’s hygienic design is CIP/SIP resistant and allows autoclavation. Equipped with NIST-traceable and certified clip-on filters, OUSBT66 is outstandingly easy to calibrate and verify.
The OUSBT66 sensor measures the cell density, biomass and suspended solids in life sciences applications, such as:
-
Cell growth in bacterial fermentation
-
Mammalian cell culture applications
-
Biomass during fermentation processes
-
Monitoring of algae concentration
-
Monitoring of crystallization processes
-
Suspended solids measurement
OUSBT66 is suitable for laboratory, pilot scale and production fermenters and bioreactors.
