Distek sensIR 3200 Bathless Tablet Disintegration Tester

Description

The Distek sensIR 3200 is a disintegration tester for tablets that utilizes a bathless heating system and offers an optional near-infrared (NIR) auto-endpoint detection module. It is available in three configurations offering two, four, or six independent test stations. The physical dimensions vary with the number of stations: the width ranges from 14 inches for the two-station model to 27 inches for the six-station version, while the depth and height remain constant at 19 inches and 28.5 inches, respectively. The bathless heating is achieved through dedicated heater jackets for each beaker, capable of heating media to 37°C from ambient in under 8 minutes. Each station includes an integrated temperature sensor for monitoring. The optional NIR endpoint system automatically determines and records disintegration times without requiring modified disks, though its performance can depend on the specific product and media. The control interface permits users to run up to three distinct test methods concurrently across the stations. The system supports user management, report storage, and includes qualification reminders. The semi-circular layout of the stations is intended to optimize bench space while providing scalable testing capacity. The operational temperature range for the instrument is 20°C to 49°C.
