Sartorius Stedim Palletank Cubical Jacketed-Mix 200L Storage Tank

• Biopharmaceutical manufacturing for buffer and media preparation.
• Storage and mixing of sterile solutions in GMP environments.
• Cell culture media preparation and holding.
• Vaccine production and other sensitive biological fluid handling.
• Intermediate product storage in biotech processes.

Typical capacity

This unit is specified at 200 litres; other units in this class commonly range from 50L to 1000L.

Power supply

Jacketed tanks typically require a power supply for temperature control, commonly 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase, depending on heating/cooling demands.

Temperature control

Units of this type typically offer precise temperature control for heating and cooling applications, often via a jacketed design.

Mixing capability

Designed for integration with external mixing systems, often single-use, for homogeneous solution preparation.

Material construction

The external frame and jacket are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316L) for durability and hygiene.

Compatibility

Often designed for use with specific single-use bags and mixing impellers from the same manufacturer.

Footprint

For a 200L unit, the footprint is typically designed to be compact, often on a pallet or dolly for mobility within a facility.

Certifications

Equipment for biopharmaceutical use commonly adheres to GMP guidelines and may have ASME BPE or similar certifications.

• What are the advantages of a jacketed tank?

  A jacketed tank allows for precise temperature control of the contents, enabling heating or cooling for sensitive processes like cell culture or buffer preparation. This maintains product integrity and process efficiency.

• Why is 'single-use' compatibility important for this equipment?

• Can this tank be used for weighing applications?

• What kind of mixing system does this tank use?

• Is this unit suitable for sterile applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for a unit like this?

Process vessels and storage tanks for bioprocessing and pharmaceutical manufacturing are valued for robust construction and compliance with GMP standards. Buyers typically seek equipment with verified validation documentation, material certifications, and service history. Common strengths include reliable performance in temperature-controlled environments and compatibility with existing systems. When purchasing used equipment, industry practice emphasises inspecting pressure ratings, gasket conditions, and calibration records. Quality units from established manufacturers generally command confidence in secondary markets.
