Testing performed by our in-house service team:
The BioFlo 120 Bioreactor passed all tests and was found to be fully functional:
• We verified the power supply and completed the initialization process.
• We assessed the functionality of the touchscreen display.
• We tested the agitation motor and motor control, confirming the smooth operation.
• We tested and calibrated pumps 1-3 to ensure accurate performance.
• We verified the readings of the PH sensor using our calibration solution.
• We verified the readings of the DO sensor using our calibration solution.
• We tested the vessel's heated jacket and heating control and verified the temperature using our NIST-calibrated probe.
• We confirmed the heated jacket shutoff after reaching the temperature setpoint.
• We tested the operation of the condenser and cooling loop solenoids.
• We checked the gassing output (sparge) and gas control.
• We monitored the trend graph and data logging.
