  • Vessel: Glass or stainless steel
  • Drive: Bottom drive with axial face seal or magnetic clutch
  • Stirrers: Rushton, propeller stirrers, pitched-blade stirrers
  • Aeration: Tube, ring sparger, sinter sparger, bubble-free gassing
  • Temperature control: Electrical heating & cooling fingers
  • Measurement and control technology: Agitation, temperature, pH, pO2, foam/level control, redox, OD, weight, exhaust analysis, numerous interfaces and regulators
