K-PH-ML-D5-KV2 vibratory loss-in-weight feeder

The K-PH-ML-D5-KV2 vibratory loss-in-weight feeder is designed for the low-flowrate addition of difficult-flowing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly cohesive materials that build up when fed via standard twin-screw configurations. This feeder is well-suited for continuous pharmaceutical operations, such as extrusion, granulation, mixing, and coating. It has an easy-to-clean design, with a removable tray and end covers that provide accessibility. The 3-L inlet funnel transition hopper has a 65-deg. slope for optimal material flowability into the vibratory tray.

Type 8202 transmitter

The Type 8202 transmitter is a compact modular device for measuring pH or oxidation-reduction potential (ORP). It comes with a standard replaceable 120-mm pH or ORP probe screwed into a sensor holder and an integrated Pt1000 temperature sensor for required temperature compensation. The Type 8202 has a backlit display and can transmit both temperature and the desired analytical value (pH or ORP) simultaneously.

PharmaLine PQ ultraviolet disinfection system

The PharmaLine PQ ultraviolet disinfection system is validated for use in the production of pharmaceutical and healthcare products, where process water must be free of pathogens as well as disinfection chemicals such as chlorine and ozone. The PharmaLine PQ’s dosage display validates disinfection by confirming that the unit is generating the appropriate UV output to kill various microorganisms, yeast, mold and algae. Water passes through the device and is exposed to UV light, destroying microorganisms’ ability to reproduce. The disinfected water meets U.S.

Modulyzer system

The PC-controlled Modulyzer system is capable of performing multiparameter measurements on liquid samples with varying viscosities. It allows the company’s DMA M Series density meter to be combined with an RXA refractometer, an MCP polarimeter, and/or a colorimeter. The measuring system can be automated with an Xsample 352 filling and rinsing unit or an Xsample 452 sample changer. All instruments are controlled via PC software, and other instruments can be added to the system as required.

Series SSB electric boilers

The Series SSB electric boilers are designed to produce clean steam up to 100 psig at rates from 36 lb/h to 540 lb/h. No flues, fuel lines or tanks are involved in their operation, and no onsite products of combustion are generated. They operate on electricity, can be located almost anywhere, and are compatible with distilled, demineralized, deionized, or reverse-osmosis-produced water. Small in size, they are quiet, provide high-quality steam, and are almost 100% efficient. Minimal heat is lost to the surrounding area.

EasyCurve mop

The EasyCurve mop has a 14-in. flat, fabric-laminated head attached to a curved, stainless steel frame. It has been designed specifically to clean floors, walls and ceilings in cleanrooms and controlled environments, and all hardware and mop heads are autoclavable. The mop is compatible with a wide range of disinfectants, solvents and cleaning solutions. It uses a separate sling-style wringer that is installed over a 6.5-gal polypropylene bucket to completely and easily remove liquid from the mop head.

interphex365.com

ISPE and Interphex have joined to create interphex365.com — an online resource that provides on-demand insights, news, and product information, as well as education, networking, com­munity, and career opportunities. Its professional elements and tools include a comprehensive global supplier direct­ory. It will be updated daily, and user feedback will be incorporated into new functionalities to ensure that the tool remains valuable, useful and relevant.

EasyCurve mop

Designed to clean in controlled environments, the EasyCurve mop consists of a flat, fabric-laminated mop head attached to a curved, stainless steel frame, all of which is autoclavable. The easy-to-use mop provides superior performance and effectiveness compared to other all-surface cleaning systems. It is an ideal upgrade alternative in applications where sponge roller and self-wringing mops are currently used. Compatible with a wide range of disinfectants, solvents and cleaning solutions, it is suitable for use in pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing plants. Its 14-in.

Nano-Molecular Labels

The incorporation of IDGLOBAL Nano-Molecular Marking technologies into pharmaceutical labels provides the highest level of protection against counterfeit labels. Each label contains an invisible, non-degradable, digital forensic marker that is uniquely identifiable. This invisible mark can be placed on pedigree documentation and packaging units in a supply chain, and then later read by a proprietary scanning unit to identify the original mark; if these scans match, the product has not been violated. Auditing and field verifications are available from the manufacturer.
