Single-use fermentor for microbial fermentation

Enhances Fermentation and Temperature Control

The HyPerforma™ Enhanced Single-Use Fermentor from Thermo Fisher Scientific integrates enhanced functionality into your microbial fermentation processes. With a 35% increase in jacketed surface area, this fermentor significantly optimizes temperature control by at least 21%. The proprietary mixing system, featuring three re-designed turbine impellers and a sparger configuration, ensures optimal sterility and mixing efficiency. Suitable for biopharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, it supports the production of monoclonal antibodies, insulin, and bioethanol. Operating with a 5:1 turndown ratio, it accommodates volumes as low as 60-L, ideal for batch and fed-batch operations. The fermentor is PLC-controlled for precise automation, ensuring seamless integration into existing production lines. Enhanced cable/tubing management and a minimized vessel footprint simplify installation and operation. Constructed from stainless steel, it offers robust chemical resistance, while the state-of-the-art foam sensor prevents exhaust filter failures, reducing downtime and maintenance.
