Cell Disrupter Achieves High Flow Rates For Biotech Applications
The M-7250-20 Microfluidizer® processor can achieve product flow rates of up to 400 liters per hour. The processor comes equipped with a product feed pump and heat exchanger. The unit is delivered with a standard PLC-based, password protected control design that utilizes a Human Machine Interface (HMI). The HMI is Windows XP driven and features a touch screen interface. Process and data management is under the control of GE Fanuc Automation’s iFIX Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. This robust communication and control architecture enables the processor to interact with other pieces of equipment and integrate data with a process control SCADA or DCS (Distributed Control Systems. The M-7250-20 is designed for wash-down capability, and offers optional Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Steam-in-Place (SIP) features that thoroughly clean and sanitize the system between batches or before storage. Because the interaction chamber employs no moving parts, no disassembly is required for cleaning.
