Parker SciLog SciPres Pressure Monitor with Pressure Sensors

• Monitoring pressure in bioreactors and fermenters during cell culture and microbial fermentation.
• Controlling filtration processes such as tangential flow filtration (TFF) and virus filtration.
• Ensuring consistent pressure in media preparation and buffer management systems.
• Real-time monitoring in aseptic filling and formulation processes.
• Use in chromatography systems for precise pressure control.

Number of Sensor Inputs

Typically supports up to three pressure sensor inputs simultaneously for this model.

Sensor Compatibility

Designed for use with single-use, pre-calibrated, gamma-stable SciPres pressure sensors.

Pressure Range

Commonly provides monitoring across typical bioprocessing pressure ranges; specific range depends on the connected sensor.

Data Storage

Sensors typically feature an integrated chip for storing calibration and sensor-specific data, aiding traceability.

Connectivity Options

Sensors are available with various connection types, including Luer, barb (e.g., 3/8", 1/2"), and Tri-Clover (e.g., 3/4", 1") for integration into diverse tubing configurations.

Power Supply

Units of this class commonly operate on standard laboratory power supplies, typically 100-240V AC.

• What is the primary benefit of using single-use pressure sensors with this monitor?

  Single-use sensors eliminate the need for cleaning and sterilisation between batches, reducing turnaround time and mitigating the risk of cross-contamination in biopharmaceutical applications.

• Can this monitor display transmembrane pressure (TMP)?

• Are the sensors supplied with the unit pre-calibrated?

• What kind of data output capabilities does this monitor typically have?

• Is this equipment suitable for sterile environments?

Pressure sensors and monitors are valued for their reliability and precision in laboratory and pharmaceutical applications. Buyers typically prioritise accuracy, calibration history, and compatibility with existing systems when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment recognises these instruments as durable workhorses that retain functionality well when properly maintained. Key considerations include verification of calibration certificates, condition of sensing elements, and documentation of previous usage. Well-maintained examples from reputable manufacturers generally offer strong value and dependable performance.
