A Revolutionary Single-Use Bioreactor System

​The PBS Biotech Vertical-Wheel™ Bioreactor represents a truly novel and innovative approach to single-use bioreactor design. Our unique, vertical-agitation technology results in homogenous mixing, uniform particle suspension, improved mass transfer, and reduced shear stress — all in the simplest and smallest footprint available. PBS Bioreactors provide True Scalability, allowing you to achieve faster and more productive results with unparalleled flexibility and efficiency.​
Key Features

Vertical-Wheel™ Technology​
  • Vertically-orientated impeller is departure from horizontal style in traditional stainless steel and similar single-use bioreactors
  • Results in fast, efficient mixing with uniform particle suspension and low shear stress


Single-Use Assembly
  • Integrates the Vertical-Wheel™ impeller with no penetration of axle through the disposable vessel, resulting in lowered risk of compromised integrity with the bioreactor vessel
  • Vertical-Wheel™, vessel, and all other product-contact surfaces are made of certified medical-grade components


Stainless Steel Housing
  • Designed specifically to house the single-use vessel as well as hold sensors, filters, and tubings
  • Provides complete enclosure of single-use vessel to allow leak containment and point-of-use vessel integrity testing
  • Includes proprietary controller system

​
Embedded Controller
  • Integrated into the housing and designed to allow control over run parameters
  • Proven and reliable control system with intuitive touchscreen interface
  • Secure, remote access control and alarm reporting through internet connection​​
