The flexible controller for bioprocesses at pilot and production scale

Bioprocess control in Pilot and Production

  • Fully configurable controller based on your requirements
  • Turn-key package with the SUPR and the BioPilot / BioProduction
  • Variety of software platforms available for maximum connectivity

The pro-Control can be integrated with the single-use production bioreactor (SUPR) in the range of 50 to 250 L maximum working volume, or with our stainless steel vessel with a range of 240 L (BioPilot) to 5,000 L (BioProduction) maximum working volume. The pro-Control is equipped with the latest standard in pump, MFC and sensor technology.

The pro-Control comes in two designs. One design is on wheels that provides optimal flexibility while working with the SUPR and the other design is placed on a skid next to a stainless steel bioreactor.

Seamless integration

The pro-Control integrates with any factory automation system, whether that is DeltaV (V-Control), Siemens PLC, Allen Bradley PLC or iFix. The pro-Control also offers a compatibility with a wide range of sensors, to ensure you can accurately measure your process. 

cGMP compliant

This controller is ideal for usage in facilities with high-demanding GMP requirements. All components have carefully been selected for sterile working environments like biopharmaceutical production areas. The pro-Control can be used in a 21CFR part 11 compliant system.

Flexibility

The pro-Control can be used for both single-use and sterilizable-in-place applications at pilot and production scale. Whatever unique process requirements are being asked, we can create tailor-made systems matching these specific requirements.
