BIOCAM™ SANITARY PROCESS CAMERA
The CANTY BioCam™ is uniquely qualified to view inside your fermenters and bioreactors and provides a continual control signal allowing the user to meter in antifoam. The BioCam™ is an Ethernet based imaging system which connects to the CANTY VCM™ image processor that determines the percentage of foam on the surface of the liquid.
The foam control function allows for significant savings of antifoam, improves process performance in cell culture growth and eliminates the need for additional antifoam fluids in purification. The all in-one design is both compact and sanitary and unlike its predecessors requires no additional external power supply for operation.
A built in heater eliminates condensation from forming on the glass and provides for a clear image at all times. Coupled with CantyVision™ software, the BioCam™ can be used for full control via OPC or 4-20mA.
Turbidity analysis using a high resolution CCD/CMOS image sensor that detects turbidity changes in fluids by measuring the transmittance of light. Using advanced software algorithms the system automatically removes gas bubbles from the analysis resulting in highly accurate and repeatable data outputs. This system is designed for inline use with varying pressures, temperatures, and pipe diameters.
