Process Analytics
Introducing CO₂NTROL
Hamilton's CO₂NTROL is a solid-state sensor that directly measures DCO₂ and provides maintenance free, real-time, and in-line control of this important critical process parameter. Get automated control that enables increased titer, better batch-to-batch reproducibility, and more consistency from R&D to production-scale bioreactors.

Sensors Specifically for Single-Use
Hamilton's single-use pH sensors combine the reliability and measurement stability of our long-term proven conventional sensors with the ease of use as an integral part of the bioreactor. The sensors retain the high accuracy performance even after gamma irradiation and a sufficient shelf life making it the ideal single-use solution.
The Power of On-Line Intelligent Sensors
Traditional pH sensor management in a production process is costly and labor intensive — often the sensor only accounts for 20 percent of total operational costs. Hamilton’s Arc intelligent pH sensors redefine the relationship between sensors and transmitters, openning a wide range of operational process improvements and cost reduction.
Real-Time Cell Density Measurement for Real-Time Control
On-line, or in-situ, measurement is the pinnacle of process monitoring and necessary for true process control as evidenced with control of pH and dissolved oxygen, common for most biological processes. In fact, many parameters can be monitored but those directly related to cell physiology are typically time consuming off-line measurements that provide only a reactionary window into the past. Incyte Arc and Dencytee sensors provide a means for directly measuring viable cell density and total cell density in real-time, meeting the increasing need for PAT in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Traditional vs. Arc vs. Memosens Sensors?
Traditional sensors provide standard mV output and rely on a separate transmitter or controller to amplify the signal and convert to an actual reading. Arc sensors provide a built-in microtransmitter that can output either 4 - 20mA or Modbus RTU digital communication. Finally Memosens sensors offer a digital signal that works with all Memosens transmitters and analyzers currently on the market. -
What is A-length and how is it measured?
A-length refers to the insertion depth of the sensor. It's generally measured from the base of the PG13.5 mounting threads but can vary with certain styles of sensors. -
What is the difference between pH and ORP?
pH and ORP sensors look alike but have different measurement principles. pH sensors rely on a glass membrane that produces a voltage signal in relation to the hydrogen ion concentration in the liquid. The concentration of acids or bases affect this hydrogen ion concentration thus influence the pH measurement. ORP sensors measure of the overall level of oxidizing or reducing substances present in the liquid. The ORP measurement is not specific to any single ion in the liquid thus the response is based on the net presence of these chemicals.
