CTS: Automated Tablet Content Uniformity Testing System

The SOTAX CTS (Content Testing System)is the fastest more reliable system for automated content uniformity and composite assay testing. The CTS can simultaneously sample processing, up to three times faster than comparable systems available in the market with superior handling of tablets, capsules, effervescent tablets, powder, pellets and liquids.

The CTS has a uniquely designed SOTAX sample magazine that can run in a basic version with up to 120 (tube size 16 x 160 mm) or 40 (tube size 32 x 115 mm) samples in an unattended operation/sequence. With the extend version of the sample magazine it is possible to run up 240 samples (tube size 16 x 160 mm) or 80 (tube size 115 mm). This unique design allows greater flexibility for the introduction of a wide sample range.

• The unique vessel handling device allows making a parallel process of up to 3 samples
• Sample weights and dilutions are gravimetrically confirmed and recorded over 4-place balances
• With the unique cleaning design, less than 50 ml of organic solvent is required for a complete run
• Vessels are dried before the start of the next sample preparation to prevent carry-over contamination

• The SOTAX automated Content Testing System is manufactured with high quality, inert materials such as PVDF, stainless steel, teflon, glass and PEEK
• Efficient cleaning design eliminates carry-over between tests
• Outstanding accuracy and reproducibility
• Flexible design concept allowing for customized requirements
• Unique rotating solvents input station allows the insertion of powder into the solvent without residue
• Dilution ratios of up to 1:40,000 can be performed
• Choice of up to 8 different media for a maximum flexibility
• Easy validation of hardware and software
• Easy re-injection of fractioned samples into HPLC at any time
• Homogenizer tool without bearing in contact with solvent
