pH Measurement & Dissolved Oxygen Measurement in Stainless Steel Bioreactors
Accurately measure pH levels & dissolved oxygen concentrations in pharmaceutical manufacturing
Reliability After Steam-in-Place (SIP) & Clean-In-Place (CIP)
pH and dissolved oxygen are critical process parameters in pharmaceutical manufacturing that must be accurately monitored and controlled to produce high-quality biological drugs. Most bioreactors utilize two sensors for each measurement for redundancy and accuracy. In stainless steel bioreactors, SIP and CIP cycles can degrade sensors over time. The Rosemount™ Hx338+ Steam Sterilizable and Autoclavable pH Sensor is constructed to withstand the high temperatures of SIP and harsh chemicals of CIP. Furthermore, it provides a pressurized reference electrode which works to maintain a drift-free pH signal and fights poisoning ions. Likewise, the Rosemount Hx438 Steam Sterilizable Dissolved Oxygen Sensor is an amperometric sensor designed to withstand repeated steam sterilization cycles.

Product Solutions
The Rosemount Hx338+ Steam Sterilizable & Autoclavable pH Sensor provides the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries with a unique pre-pressurized pH reference technology. The pre-pressurized reference stops contamination between batches by not allowing the process to leak into the pH sensor. The pH reference also features a triple barrier junction which works to maintain a drift-free pH signal and fight poisoning ions (i.e., sulfides, proteins, or sugars), even after numerous sterilization cycles.
- Provides protection against batch cross-contamination with a pre-pressurized reference
- Measures accurately after many SIP cycles at 286°F (140°C)
- Installs easily with quick disconnects from cable-to-sensor
