Benchtop 1 L PBR

15  x 10  x 10 cm (h w l) acrylic reactor with a fitted lid.
An external acrylic sleeve and base insulate and protect the PBR.

CryoPharos™

New features allow temperatures below 0°C even when installed on your lab bench at room temperature.
No need for a cold room anymore!

Easy to assemble and to operate

Magnetic catches make it easy to assemble and disassemble the PBR. Ports in the lid allow a range of sensor and control functions to be undertaken depending on user requirements.

Speed up your projects

Ideal PBR for R&D purposes. Enables researchers to conduct experiments with a higher number of replicates in a more cost effective manner. The MicroPharos™ PBR can also be used as a start-up inoculum for larger algal cultivation.

Fully controlled system

Ports in the lid allow a range of sensor and control functions to be undertaken depending on the user’s requirements. The standard lid includes ports for gas inlet, gas outlet, sampling, temperature and two open ports that can be used for additional functions (such as pH or light sensors). Temperature is controlled by a Peltier device driven by the Zeus II Controller™ unit.

Latest LED technology

The MicroPharos™ is lit by two external LED tiles that are placed on either side of the box, giving an effective light path of 5 cm. The light tiles come with an inbuilt fan to keep them cool when using high light intensities; our tiles can exceed 3,000 µmol m-2 s-1 of photons.

The standard light tiles are supplied with white LEDs. User defined wavelengths and multiple wavelength tiles can be supplied upon request.

Fully controlled system

Ports in the lid allow a range of sensor and control functions to be undertaken depending on the user’s requirements. The standard lid includes ports for gas inlet, gas outlet, sampling, temperature and a spare port that can be used for additional functions (such as for pH or light sensors). Temperature is controlled by a Peltier device driven by the Zeus II Controller™ unit.

Up to 1,000 L capacity

Flexible capacities between 100 – 1000 L, with 100 L, 700 L and 1,000 L standard.

 

Easy operation and set-up

Pandora units are modular and will be installed for you on-site. An array of internal sensors make monitoring their conditions and progress straightforward.

 

Commercial applications

This system is ideal for pilot scale and industrial use. It can be used for batch or continuous production.

 

Fully controlled system

The Zeus II Controller™ can be used to oversee the operations of the Pandora™ unit. A single Zeus can operate all of the Pandora light tiles separately or together, enabling great internal flexibility.

 

Lighting

Watertight LED sheets are installed throughout the interior, allowing optimal lighting for algae even in the centre of the unit. There are 10 LED sheets per 1,000 L, with a 5 cm light path.
