Product catalog summary
Software for Monitoring and Controlling the Chemical Process
Steroglass offers a PLC programmable control system for pilot/laboratory plants, featuring an interactive HMI for managing product temperature, vacuum levels, stirring speed, and valve operations. The system supports cascade operations and includes a touch screen display with SCADA as a standard option. It complies with cGMP standards, offering multiple password levels for security. Users can log parameters, set alarms, and save system setups.

Features
The system includes a 20-liter borosilicate glass reactor, capable of operating between -1.0 to +0.5 bar and -45°C to +200°C. It features a continuous adjustable stirrer, dry running mechanical seal, and is CIP capable. Materials comply with FDA and GMP directives, suitable for corrosive environments. Optional chiller/thermostat with PLC supervision is available.

Frame and Cover Plate
The frame is made of stainless steel tubing, with optional laboratory fume hood. The cover plate includes a fast-action closure for solids addition and various connection options.

Glass Overhead
The distillation overhead includes a 10-liter feed vessel, vapor duct with reflux splitter, coil heat exchanger, and graduated glass receiver vessels.

Documentation
Manuals, P&ID, layout drawings, and IQ/OQ/PQ lists are provided.

Stirrer and Controls
Interchangeable PTFE stirrers are available, with a wide range of styles. Sensors monitor vacuum, product temperature, vapor temperature, and pH.

Safety and Utility Requirements
The system includes a rupture disk and requires a 400V power supply and optional compressed air for actuated valves.

Pilot Plant 20 lt-1

Any Steroglass pilot/laboratory plant can be equipped with a PLC programmable control system. The user now has a suitable software package in an interactive HMI (Human machine interface) for con‐ trolling and/or regulating the product temperature by re‐circulating chiller, the vacuum level inside the glassware, the stirring speed and the opening and closing of valves. By measuring the pH in the product the user can create cascade operations (e.g. activate the peristaltic pump for the product loading). The HMI is made through a touch screen graphic display designed specifically for industrial plants, SCADA is a standard option. According to cGMP, several levels of passwords are available. The user can control all the pilot plant operation driven by sensor, the software will store the log of each parameter (the trend of product temperature, vapor flux temperature, vacuum, actuated events, etc. ) The user can set alarms and warnings as well as saving and recalling the system setups (the working data).
