Pierre Guerin 1000L

This listing is for the Pierre Guerin 1000L Fermenter.

The unit is in full working condition and is ready for immediate use.

Overview

The Pierre Guerin 1000L Fermentation System is a high-capacity, stainless steel bioreactor/fermenter engineered for process development, scale-up, and clinical or commercial production. With a working volume of approximately 700–800 litres, this system bridges pilot and production scale, delivering robust performance, exceptional process control, and full compliance with GMP and FDA requirements. Built by Pierre Guerin, a global leader in sanitary stainless steel process systems, the 1000L fermenter is ideal for demanding applications in biotech, pharmaceutical, food, and industrial biotechnology sectors.

Key Features

Advanced Bioprocess Control

Automated Regulation: Precise control of pH, DO, temperature, agitation, antifoam, and feeding, with optional cascade control strategies.

SCADA Integration: Seamless connectivity with Siemens, DeltaV, or Rockwell Automation for full process automation and data logging.

Sterile Processing: Designed for SIP (Steam-in-Place) and CIP (Clean-in-Place) operation for maximum sterility and cleanability.

Robust, Hygienic Design

1000L Total Volume with up to 800L working volume, ideal for late-stage development and pre-commercial production.

316L Stainless Steel Vessel: Internal surfaces electropolished to Ra ≤ 0.6 μm for hygienic and corrosion-resistant performance.

Jacketed Construction: Provides accurate temperature control via integrated thermal fluid systems.
