DISI-3A Automatic Disintegration Tester

 DISI-3A Automatic Disintegration Tester:

The DISI-3A Automatic Disintegration Tester is a high-performance, multi-station system designed for precise, real-time monitoring of tablet and capsule disintegration. Its advanced automation and compliance capabilities make it ideal for pharmaceutical R&D and quality control environments.

Independent Multi-Product Testing

The DISI-3A allows simultaneous testing of up to four different products, with each station operating independently. This capability increases throughput and flexibility, especially in environments that test various formulations.

Accurate and Gentle Testing Process

A soft-start function ensures that the testing baskets are immersed in the disintegration medium in a controlled and gentle manner. The sinusoidal basket motion, driven by micro-step stepping motors, guarantees precise and synchronized vertical movement, essential for repeatable and reliable testing outcomes.

Seamless Software Integration

All operations are conducted through the PH21 Windows-based software, known for its intuitive interface and secure access management. The system complies with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, providing password-protected access and comprehensive audit trail logging for full regulatory compliance.

Real-Time Monitoring and Data Visualization

The system features continuous tablet height tracking, delivering immediate alerts if tablets fail to disintegrate within the expected timeframe. The graphical real-time data display visualizes height changes on the connected PC, offering valuable insights during testing.

Patented Electromagnetic Measurement Technology

The DISI-3A employs a patented electromagnetic measurement principle, using six coils embedded in the basket’s lower plate. This contactless technology detects height variations with exceptional precision, eliminating issues caused by corrosion or contamination found in traditional designs.

Smart Design for Ease of Use

Its magnetic coupling system enables wire-free, fast attachment and removal of baskets, while the quick lock mechanism secures discs in place during tests. The tester’s clear design also allows for easy visual inspection of the disintegration process.

Reliable Temperature Control

A thermostatic temperature control unit maintains consistent fluid temperature across all stations. Each basket includes an individual temperature sensor, which monitors conditions continuously. If temperature limits are exceeded, the system triggers an automatic alert and halts the test.

Simplified Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the DISI-3A is simple. The baskets are easy to dismantle and can be fully submerged in a cleaning bath. This supports fast turnaround times and maintains high hygiene standards in laboratory and production settings.
