Mediafill Dispensing and Pouring System

Mediafill Dispensing and Pouring System

A dispensing and pouring system for automated dosing and filling of microbiological culture media in petri dishes with diameters of 35, 60, 70 and 90 mm, as well as for Bi-plates and Tri-plates and for the automatic metering of liquid media into test tubes. Depending on requirements, there are three carousel sizes for 220, 440 or 660 Petri dishes. The system is simple and intuitive to operate. For example, the dimensions of the Petri dishes being used can be called up from the database via the 5.7″ display. Sterile automatic dispensing is performed precisely via an integrated peristaltic pump. Having a range of options, the Systec Mediafill can be configured ideally for the most diverse of applications.

Systec Mediafill operation via touch screenEasy operation via intuitive touch screen

The Systec Mediafill is controlled via an intuitive touch screen interface and includes a database of Petri dish brands to insure reliable operation with your dish supplier of choice.


Integrated peristaltic pump
The integrated peristaltic pump insures precise filling of media, a second pump is available for simultaneous dispensing of blood or other additives. Both pumps feature DropStop control which prevents dripping of media between dish dispensing. With the Pump back function: in the event of malfunctions, the medium is pumped back to prevent gelling in the tube.


UV-lamp
The Systec Mediafill also utilizes a UV lamp with 2.3 W UVC light emission ensuring sterile dispensing of media.
