Pumps and other hardware to complete a perfusion set-up<br />
The harvest pump is a variable speed pump. The pump is stopped (remotely) by the<br />
<strong>BioSep</strong> controller during field off times, facilitating the settling of aggregates. This means<br />
that the harvest flow is stopped for a few seconds, arresting the flow in the chamber.<br />
The stop time of a few seconds will affect the overall harvest flow rate by a small<br />
amount. This pump can be controlled directly by a connecting cable between the <strong>BioSep</strong><br />
controller and the pump.<br />
In cultures of sticky cells or too large aggregates, the variable speed pump with prime<br />
rate reverse action (code Z288010020) is a recommended option.The pump has the<br />
capability to reverse the harvest flow at full pump speed (prime), during field off time.<br />
Sticky cells can adhere to the glass of the resonator chamber. By reversing the flow at<br />
full speed during field off times (for 3 sec) these cells will get a small push back into the<br />
bioreactor. Reversing the flow every 10 min will result in less adherence of cells in the<br />
<strong>BioSep</strong> chamber.<br />
A typical <strong>BioSep</strong> set-up<br />
<strong>BioSep</strong> 10L: • holder to fit resonance chamber into the headplate<br />
• suction tube for recirculation loop<br />
• recirculation pump<br />
• harvest pump (variable speed / remote controlled)<br />
• fresh medium inlet and pump (e.g. controlled via level controller)<br />
<strong>BioSep</strong> 50L: • diptube for return of cells from chamber. (The diptube should be<br />
provided with the proper headplate connector and a 0.5” TC to install<br />
the resonance chamber).<br />
• suction tube for recirculation loop<br />
• recirculation pump<br />
• harvest pump (variable speed / remote controlled)<br />
• fresh medium inlet and pump (e.g. controlled via level controller)<br />
Various adapters are available to fit the <strong>BioSep</strong> 50L to any type or brand of bioreactor.<br />
