Ultrasonic flow sensors are gaining traction in the bio-pharmaceutical industry

 

The bio-pharmaceutical sector's relentless pace mandates innovative methods for the detection and quantification of biological entities. Chromatography filtration emerges as a critical technique for the separation and meticulous analysis of bio-molecules, a task significantly influenced by the precision of flow control within the process. Chromatographic filtration is a mainstay in bio-pharmaceutical procedures, facilitating the purification, identification, and quantitation of bio-molecules. Utilizing the distinctive physical and chemical attributes of compounds within a mixture, it encompasses a multitude of methods such as adsorption, ion exchange, and gel filtration. The crux of chromatography's efficacy lies in controlling the flow rate, which directly determines the efficiency of separation and the validity of analytical results.

Ultrasonic flow sensors are gaining traction in the bio-pharmaceutical industry as a superior alternative for managing flow in cinematographic operations. These devices boast benefits that traditional methods fail to deliver concurrently, including their high precision, pollution-free operation, and dispensability of mechanical parts that require maintenance.

Ultrasonic flow sensors operate on the transit-time difference principle, employing the characteristics of sonic waves within a fluid to determine flow-related metrics. By measuring the varying transit times of ultrasonic signals – shortened downstream and elongated upstream due to fluid dynamics – these sensors provide highly accurate and stable readings of flow rates and volumes.

RBCG series ultrasonic flow sensors from R&B, with our up to ±1% accuracy and external clamp-on mechanism, mark a technological leap in chromatographic filtration flow measurements(flow sensor). Without invading the fluid's path, these sensors facilitate installation or removal without process interruption. Their strategic placement enables ongoing performance assessment, preemptively minimizing the potential for costly reagent waste and experiment disruption.R&B's ultrasonic flow sensors are various across diverse chromatographic techniques, including protein purification and antibody conjugation analysis. 

Key benefits include:

• High Measurement Accuracy: Ensures exact flow rates crucial for successful chromatographic separation.
• Stability: Maintains consistent performance throughout processes, vital for repeatable results.
• No-Contact Measurement: Minimizes contamination risks and maintains sample integrity.
• Wide Measurement Range: Capable of accommodating various flow rates.Low Maintenance: 
• Due to the lack of moving parts and non-intrusive nature.
