Experts for non-invasive flow measurement of liquidsby ultrasound transit-time based methods

Ground-breaking Ceremony for new Company Building: Ready for the Future!

The ground-breaking ceremony was held on Monday, November 19, 2018, when em-tec’s Managing Directors Dr. Hannspeter Schubert and Markus Traxler, mayor Siegfried Weissenbach and responsible architect Andreas Paluch has given the starting signal for the new headquarter in Finning.

If everything goes as expected, the new company building will be ready for occupation in spring 2020. The completion of the shell construction is - weather permitting – planned for June 2019. The subsequent interior work is scheduled for the beginning of March 2020. Upon completion, the new company building will have a potential for up to 150 employees.

Architect Andreas Paluch from Munich designed a modern two-storey building, which meets the highest technical standards, offers sufficient space for the increasing number of employees and will have attractive outdoor facilities. On a total of 4,950 square meters, new premises and offices are going to be built for the Production, Development and Administration departments.

High Accuracy with em-tec BioProTT™ flow measurement system proven in customer environment

Since the late 1980s, there have been more than 20 indirect methods for measuring process flows for the bio-pharmaceutical industry. Few of these methods are well suited to single use systems. Non invasive transit-time ultrasonic flow measurement with Clamp-On technology can the achieve overall performance accuracy and repeatability required for typical process control applications. AlphaBio Inc. has evaluated three different single use system set-ups (TFF System, Isocratic Chromatography System and Gradient Chromatography System) with the em-tec BioProTT™ flow measurement system. Flow rates ranging from 2 to 16 LPM were measured and evaluated against an NIST calibrated Coriolis meter (Endress + Hauser.)  The results of this study indicate that that with proper material calibration and unit setup, flow rate measurement accuracies of less than +/- 2% of reading can be achieved.

The latest generation of BioProTT™ Flow Track flow meters is now supporting flow rates of up to 100 l/min

em-tec has also released new BioProTT™ Clamp-On Transducers for larger tubing with outer diameters of up to 1-5/8″.

Our BioProTT™ FlowTrack DINrail (for installation in the control cabinet) now offers a remote zero feature with an analog pulse for ease of use if you are not using a digital interface.

We are Experts in non-invasive Flow Measurement

One of the company’s core competences is in the field of non-invasive flow measurement using the transit time ultrasound principle. Based on this technology, em-tec offers products and components for medical and non-medical uses, such as for cardiovascular surgery, for use in laboratories and bioprocesses and in other industrial applications where flexible tubing is used.

Process-oriented Quality Assurance

Our quality management system (certified to ISO 13485) provides for a correct, complete documentation of the project and ensures that all the strict guidelines that apply to medical device manufacturers are observed throughout the development process. Customers are thus well prepared for approval. We have experience in all classes of CE and FDA approvals.
