BIOSTAT® B-DCU II – the power and flexibility to meet your process development needs BIOSTAT® B-DCU II – the power and flexibility to meet your process development needs

The BIOSTAT^® B-DCU II is a new generation of Fermentor| Bioreactor system, designed for meeting demanding requirements in both research and process development. A newly engineered control system launches many of its well-proven design features into a new era, offering unprecedented advantages for process development laboratories around the world. Unrivaled for scale-down and scale-up modeling of various culture processes, the BIOSTAT^® B-DCU II provides a new level of power and flexibility.

The BIOSTAT^® B-DCU II consists of the local BioPAT DCU control tower and can be configured with up to six supply towers, each providing independent control of the respective culture vessel. The controller allows additional vessels and supply towers to be added on-site without the need for external interfaces or expensive software upgrades.
The BioPAT DCU Control Tower provides advanced process control. Besides the standard measurement and control possibilities, advanced control features like pressure control, Constant Total Gas Flow Control, Gravimetric Feed and Harvest Control are possible.

The fully user configurable pO2 controller is another example. It allows the selection of 5 out of up to 10 actuators. All actuators can be operated parallel or sequential for optimal process control. For process safety and advanced process documentation a 3-Level  password module as well as a Logbook module is available. Use of a unique, integrated, space-saving tower design enables up to six supply towers and the BioPAT DCU control tower to be fully incorporated in a system occupying less than 3 meters of bench space For further enhancement of system  performance, a powerful supervisory process control software MFCS/DA for extended visualization, data acquisition and trend display is inclusive.
