Maximum Protection, Superior Quality: Modu-C CS Containment

Safely scale potent capsule encapsulation with high-containment isolation up to OEB 5, integrated wet-in-place cleaning, and 100% inline weight verification.

The Modu-C CS Containment platform offers the same capabilities as our Modu-C CS, but with containment parameters that ensure optimal operator and product protection against highly active substances.

Containment concepts of up to OEB 5 can be achieved on the Modu-C CS Containment platform. Functions like the integrated deduster and cleaning by WIP (Wet-in-Place) enable safe working, optimal handling, and reduced space requirements. The 100% weighing in closed containment is revolutionary and ensures that each finished capsule is exactly the correct weight. Like the rest of its line, the Modu-C CS Containment also features in-process control (IPC) and provides optimal flexibility with its interchangeable dosing systems. For the handling of moisture- or oxygen-sensitive products, the production area can be configured with the proper environmental conditions (e.g. nitrogen environment).

Harro’s Trolley Concept: Rapid Interchange of Dosing Systems

Different dosing methods are used depending on the powder properties and the type of filling medium. The dosing systems are mounted on trolleys to allow for quick and easy exchanges.

Up to three different dosing stations can be installed on a single trolley. This makes it possible to combine several media in one capsule. The trolley system increases machine uptime by keeping maintenance, sanitization and setup separate from the basic machine.
