4 - 10 liter LowRider Working Volume

PR-SUB (Perfusion-Ready-Single-Use-Bioreactor)

For medium size perfusion systems not integrating a SUB CerCell offer the “LowRider-13” solution. Bottom outlet for connecting a pump (like centrifugal or peristaltic) used for circulating broth through the CFF/HFF in cell retention setup. The "LowRider-10" designed for up to 10 liter Working Volume in perfusion setup.

The LowRider-13 PR-SUB, the unique broth outlet at bottom for a hose connection and a first aseptic connector, retentate return to the SUB through hose, aseptic connector(s) on head plate and back into the LowRider-13 PR-SUB.
