AELAB Dissolution Tester RC-8DS | Precision Tablet & Capsule Dissolution Analysis

The AELAB RC-8DS Dissolution Tester is designed for detecting the velocity and extent of pharmic dissolution from tablets, capsules and related solid dosage forms in a specified medium. The instrument supports compliance with the National Standard (Chinese Codex) 2015 and ensures accurate, stable and reproducible analytical performance.

The system incorporates eight vessels and eight poles, configured with four vessels and four poles in front and another set at the back with intelligent lifting. The head moves up and down automatically, and all basket and paddle units are manufactured from imported Stainless Steel (SUS316L) for long-term chemical durability.

⚙️ Design & Construction

The AELAB RC-8DS features an MPU-controlled dissolution platform with precision motor drive, automatic head lifting, and a magnetism-pumped circular water current that heats the bath liquid evenly to achieve uniform temperature distribution. Vessels, baskets and paddles are built from corrosion-resistant SUS316L Stainless Steel. The chassis includes a stable bath housing and clear access for vessel positioning.

🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method

The RC-8DS regulates dissolution testing by controlling rotational speed, temperature and timing via an integrated microprocessor. The rotational system drives paddles or baskets at (20~250)rpm with ±2rpm accuracy. Temperature is stabilized to ±0.3℃ up to +45.0℃ using a circulating water system. Dissolution parameters are stored and displayed on the LCD, with real-time and preset values alternating automatically. The tester performs self-test, diagnosis and alarm functions and advances automatically through multiple preset timing points.

💡 Key Advantages

• Eight-vessel configuration enables multi-sample, high-throughput dissolution testing.
• Intelligent up/down head movement supports safe and efficient vessel access.
• Uniform bath temperature achieved through magnetism-driven water circulation.
• Microprocessor control ensures accurate speed, temperature, and timing management.
• Preset timing points (1~999 min) allow automated progression between stages.
• Independent alarm and diagnostic functions enhance operation reliability.
• LCD interface provides clear, alternating display of preset and real-time parameters.

🔗 Connectivity & Integration

The AELAB RC-8DS supports LCD-based digital operation with external data visibility. Parameters can be stored, recalled and verified according to laboratory documentation requirements and Chinese Codex 2015 methods. Interfaces allow integration into routine quality control workflows and GLP-compliant data recording practices.
