Agilent 5010 Mechanical Calibration System

The 5010 is designed for testing and documenting the critical physical parameters of centerline and height as specified in the USP General Chapters <711> Dissolution and <724> Drug Release. Regulatory authorities are emphasizing these factors since inaccuracies can lead to major changes in your dissolution results. Prior to the introduction of the 5010, the available tools did not give precise numerical values for centerline and height measurements. The 5010 is specifically designed to find these values. It can be configured for either six or eight positions. Test data from up to 30 dissolution testers can be stored in the 5010’s non-volatile memory. The data can be downloaded to a PC or printer via the Report Center printer. The 5010 records the serial numbers (up to 9 digits) of the tester and the test values. You can print a detailed, hardcopy calibration report listing all parameter values for each vessel position with the built-in Report Center printer. If you are using Agilent serialized vessels, paddles, or basket shafts, you can enter the serial numbers of each one and have these numbers print as well.
