METTLER TOLEDO’s InPro 5000i dissolved CO₂ sensor allows for the accurate measurement and control of dissolved carbon dioxide in biopharmaceutical applications. The measuring principle is based on the Severinghaus principle of potentiometric CO₂ measurement which has been widely accepted for over 55 years. The high surface finish of the stainless steel sensor prevents contamination and the sensor is fully sterilizable either in-situ or in an autoclave. The design of the membrane dramatically reduces full service time to just minutes. The interior body, a high performance pH electrode, can easily be replaced at your site. No need to send the sensor in for service.

Sterilizable and autoclavable, the 5000i is engineered to meet or exceed all FDA and GMP requirements, with 3-A, EHEDG, 3.1B, and FDA 21 CFR 177 compliance. Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) sensor technology provides a true plug-and-measure digital transmitter interface with extensive sensor diagnostics and life-cycle monitoring.  Interface the sensor to your bioreactor with one of Ingold’s many stationary or retractable housing designs. Complete your dissolved CO₂ measurement with a suitable cable and transmitter.
