in-Control
The in-Control is a process controller for laboratory scale bioreactors. The system is a drop-in-replacement for our older ADI 1010 Bio Controller and ADI 1030 Bio Controller. The in-Control offers high-level control on a small footprint. When you are running your bioreactors controlled by our ADI 1010 or ADI 1030 Bio Controllers, the in-Control can be used to increase the capabilities of your bioreactor system with a minimal investment and no downtime for your process. The controller can be used for both cell culture and microbial cultures. The in-Control is easy to operate via an intuitive human interface in combination with a color touchscreen.
Due to its small size and simple operation, this system is very well suited to control single-use mixing systems where agitation, temperature, level, and pH need to be measured and/or controlled.
Features
Control of all bioprocess parameters (including pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, agitation, foam and level)
Selectable autotuning adaptive PID control for accurate control when process conditions change during the culture
Easy operation through touch screen interface and through web browsers (Windows PC, Apple PC, Linux PC, iPhone, iPad, Android tablet, Android phone)
