Introduction
The Media Degasser EMD-21 is an automated system for preparing media for dissolution tests. It performs filtration, heating, deaeration, and precise dispensing. This ensures consistency across batches. The Media Degasser EMD-21 is designed for labs requiring high accuracy and repeatability.
Product Overview
The Media Degasser EMD-21 simplifies media preparation by combining functions into one mobile unit. With a 21-liter tank, it can prepare enough media for multiple dissolution tests. The unit uses a ceramic piston pump for volumetric dispensing with ±1% accuracy. Its design eliminates heavy lifting of media tanks and minimizes operator contact, ensuring a safer and more efficient workflow. It is the ideal base model for labs that do not require an integrated printer or DO meter.
Key Features
- Volume Accuracy: Dispenses with ±1% accuracy, compliant with USP and Ph. Eur. requirements.
- Large Capacity: A 21-liter tank can prepare media for up to three dissolution tests.
- Surfactant Handling: Special internal nozzle is designed to degas media containing SLS without frothing.
- Programmable Parameters: Allows custom settings for deaeration time, temperature, and vacuum level.
- Mobile Design: A 360° turning radius allows for easy movement in tight spaces.
- Multifunction Hose: A single hose manages aspiration, dispensing, cleaning, and drainage.
- Onboard Memory: Stores information for up to 10 batches of degassed media.
