Dissolution Tester DT 820 Series

Dissolution Tester DT 820 Series

Overview

The ERWEKA DT 820 series offers advanced intelligence and user-friendly features for stand-alone operation or control of a complete dissolution offline sampling system. It allows storage of up to 60 product test run parameters that can be recalled for future tests.

The unit can be equipped with 6, 7 or 8 test stations and be used in standard high-head or low-head mode. It provides an OQ traffic light to show USP/EP compliance as well as an external temperature sensor for checking the water bath temperature.

The water bath, made of non-leaking PET, is effortlessly accessible and allows for easy cleaning.

Shafts with

exchangeable stirring methods

Each DT 82x is fitted with a standardised shaft system with stainless steel or fluoropolymer coated stirring elements for the USP methods 1, 2 and 5. One single stirring shaft is screwed onto either a paddle (PEEK), basket holder or rotating cylinder. Due to the special design, height adjustment is not required.

The DT 820 series is available with two different stirring shaft lengths and can thus be operated in either conventional high-head mode or low-evaporation low-head mode.

Hand-in-hand

with other ERWEKA products

The ERWEKA DT 82x offers various features that play hand in hand with other ERWEKA products. It is suitable as a high-end dissolution tester, but also provides connectivity for a whole setup of dissolution systems, complete with automated sample collection and UV measurement.

The unit's flexibility is unmatched and it is perfectly accompanied by the Disso.NET software, your PC software solution for our dissolution products.
