FAQ's of Tablet Disintegration:
Q: How does the dual basket assembly with up and down movement contribute to accurate tablet disintegration testing?
A: The dual basket assembly simulates real gastrointestinal conditions by moving up and down, ensuring consistent exposure of tablets to the surrounding water in the 1000 ml bath. This movement accelerates disintegration and permits uniform testing of up to six tablets according to USP, IP, and BP specifications.
Q: What is the typical process for using the Tablet Disintegration Apparatus in a pharmaceutical laboratory?
A: To use the device, place up to six tablets in the baskets, fill the double-walled bath with 1000 ml water, set the desired temperature (30C to 40C), and program the timer. The apparatus will control the test automatically, monitoring temperature via the PT-100 sensor and basket movement, ensuring accurate and repeatable results.
Q: When should over-temperature protection safety features be relied upon?
A: The over-temperature protection functionality activates automatically if the water bath exceeds the set temperature range. This feature ensures user safety and prevents damage to both the equipment and tablets, making it particularly vital during unattended or continuous testing sessions.
Q: Where is this Tablet Disintegration Apparatus typically used?
A: This model is primarily deployed in pharmaceutical quality control and research laboratories, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. It is suitable for distributors, exporters, importers, and service providers in India who require reliable, standardized disintegration testing equipment.
Q: What are the benefits of using microprocessor-based, automatic controls in this device?
A: Microprocessor-based automatic controls provide precise regulation over timing, temperature, and basket movements. This enhances test repeatability, minimizes human error, and streamlines workflow, improving overall laboratory efficiency and data consistency.
Q: How does the PT-100 temperature sensor contribute to the apparatus's accuracy?
A: The PT-100 precision sensor delivers highly accurate temperature readings (0.5C), enabling consistent thermal regulation of the water bath throughout each disintegration cycle. This precise control ensures reproducible and reliable testing results every time.
