THE NEED
Pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and bulk chemical manufacturers are searching for means of eliminating inefficiencies and waste in their manufacturing processes in order to eliminate process bottlenecks and increase profitability.
THE SOLUTION
‘PAT initiative' conscious pharmaceutical manufacturers are consistently reporting excellent results from AMETEK's ProMaxion process mass spectrometers in the following applications:
- Pharmaceutical solvent drying - Dryer end-point detection
- Fermentation off-gas analysis
- Mammalian cell culture research
- Real-time release analysis
- Solvent swapping
Each of these tasks can be improved through PAT implementation and use of the ProMaxion. The ProMaxion saves time, increases process throughput, and improves process control through validated test procedures.
With the ProMaxion, you will increases the profitability of solvent dryer operations regardless of dryer type. We are experienced with tray dryers, centrifuge dryers, cone dryers, filter dryers, and vacuum dryers. By minimizing operation time to the minimum required for complete drying, you will see increased process throughput and reduced dryer operational costs.
Powerful and Usable Software Makes Operation Easy
Every ProMaxion is supplied with our powerful, PAT driven, Process 2000 software that is specifically written for use by technicians who are inexperienced with mass spectrometers. Every customer who has used the analyzer has commented positively on its breadth of features and ease of use. Software is available to meet your 21 CFR Part 11, OPC, or MODBUS needs.
The ProMaxion has the following features:
- Lowest price per sample point
- High performance quadrupole with enclosed ion source
- Heated automatic valve switching manifold
- Monitors multiple dryers, reactors, or vessels
- Includes Process 2000 software
- Available in Class I, Division 1 version
- RS-485, RS2-32 and 4-20 mA communications and outputs
If your process analyzer technology needs do not require Class 1, Division 2 nor a NEMA 4X enclosure, you should also consider our ProLine series of general purpose process mass spectrometers. The ProLine series is PAT driven and suitable for the tasks listed above.
