Electronics India Model 902 Digital Friability Test Apparatus (Dual Drum):
Overview and Application:
The Model 902 Digital Friability Test Apparatus from Electronics India (EI) is a precision instrument essential for quality control in the pharmaceutical industry. This apparatus is specifically designed to measure the abrasion or obression strength of tablets, evaluating their tendency to chip, break, or shed particles when subjected to mechanical stress. Friability testing is a crucial test, often complying with pharmacopeial standards such as IP and USP, ensuring that tablets maintain their physical integrity throughout manufacturing, packaging, distribution, and handling processes. The Model 902 is provided in a two-drum assembly configuration.
Key Features and Precision:
This apparatus utilizes digital technology to ensure accurate and repeatable results. It incorporates a sturdy motor that drives the drums at a constant speed. Key precision features include:
• Digital Display: The unit is fitted with a 3-digit bright red seven segment LED display for clear viewing of readings.
• Revolution Counter: A digital revolution counter displays the current number of revolutions during the test.
• Custom Settings: A thumb wheel switch allows the user to easily set the desired number of rotations required for the test.
• High Accuracy: The instrument boasts a measurement accuracy of ± 1 revolution over its operating range.
Operational Mechanism:
The digital friability test apparatus operates on the principle of subjecting tablets to controlled tumbling and mechanical shock. The unit is equipped with two transparent acrylic drums designed to rotate at a highly controlled speed of 25 ± 1 RPM.
The drums simulate real-world mechanical forces. Inside each drum, an arm carries the tablets up to a predetermined height, allowing them to fall from that specified height while the drums are rotating. This tumbling action subjects the tablets to abrasion and impact. For user convenience, provision is made to easily remove the lid of the acrylic drum by unscrewing just one knob.
