Introduction to Mass Flow Controllers for Biopharmaceuticals
In the manufacturing process of active pharmaceutical ingredients for biopharmaceuticals, including antibody drugs and vaccines, the goal is to culture and scale up viruses and cells, which requires creating an environment conducive to the survival of the target organisms. It is necessary to monitor pH levels and dissolved oxygen concentrations while controlling the flow rates of air, oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide with mass flow controllers (MFCs) to maintain an optimal culture environment. Our mass flow controllers (MFCs) have a comprehensive lineup ranging from ultra-low flow rates (3 ssm) to high flow rates (2500 slm), and they have a proven track record in many culture systems both domestically and internationally, from research and development to mass production facilities. Additionally, our new bio-option specification MFC achieves a range ratio of 3 to 5 times compared to traditional rangeability (2-100% of full scale), allowing for more precise low-flow control with a single MFC. It is also possible to use elastomer materials that comply with FDA/USP Class VI requirements, which are demanded by the pharmaceutical and medical industries.

[New Product] Introduction of the "GP200 Series" that maximizes the best performance.
Latest Pressure-Based Mass Flow for Cutting-Edge Semiconductor Processes The GP200 series adopts differential pressure sensors instead of conventional pressure sensors and positions the control valve downstream of the sensor, significantly improving the accuracy and reproducibility of flow measurement compared to traditional pressure-based MFCs. * By measuring differential pressure with a single sensor, flow accuracy and reproducibility are dramatically enhanced. * It accommodates a wide range of pressures, gas types, and processes. * Advanced valve architecture enables more accurate and reproducible flow control and responsiveness. * Zero-leak valves eliminate the "first wafer effect."

Modernization of MFC/plant equipment for SLA bioprocesses using MFC in biopharmaceutical manufacturing towards PROFINET.
The introduction of a mass flow controller (MFC) that can control flow rates down to 0.4% of full scale due to a 1:250 turndown allows for the construction of a system that can be completed with one MFC instead of the two that were previously necessary. The SLA series equipped with EtherNet/IP and PROFINET protocols can be easily included in these large packages along with advanced diagnostic tools. Older PLC and DCS systems provide flow rates and set points (PV) to help customers monitor and make important process-related decisions. Brooks Instrument's advanced diagnostics offer many predictive, trend analysis, and reliability-driven parameter solutions that can be monitored in real-time. Choke flow, backsteaming, calibration drift over time, and total flow to the MFC are all examples of valuable parameters that can be monitored. By implementing these protocols, the startup and access to Siemens, Delta-V, and Rockwell Automation PLC systems can be expedited.

Proposal for support of the old mass flow called "Legacy."
Brooks Instrument provides support for all mass flow devices previously sold by various manufacturers, including Tylan General, Mykrolis, Entegris, UNIT, Kinetics, and Celerity, as shown in the "Brooks MFC Genealogy Chart" on the right. This accounts for approximately 80% of the legacy mass flow devices in the market. In response to customer requests, we may suggest repairs in some cases, and in others, we may recommend replacement with our best-selling mass flow devices, the GF120 or GF125. We have already replaced over 20,000 units from these legacy devices to the GF series. It is possible to replace nearly all models of legacy mass flow devices featured in the "Brooks MFC Genealogy Chart." If you are having trouble with repairs or replacements of legacy mass flow devices, please feel free to consult our sales department.
