dissoWASH&DOSE®
Semi-automated washing and media handling system

dissoWASH&DOSE®
One of a kind, semi-automated and easy to use.
One of a kind, semi-automated and easy to use dissolution tester washing system with media dispensing capability. Battery powered for superb mobility and fully equipped for exceptional performance.
Overview
Free your limited resources
dissoWASH&DOSE® is addressing foremost the resource-consuming waste removal and cleaning of the vessels in your dissolution testers. In addition, it keeps the prepared dissolution medium heated and ready for dispensing and saves you a lot of time with its function of precise volumetric dispensing. This frees up your limited resources and makes this time available for more productive laboratory work.

Overview
Simplify and optimize monotonous tasks
dissoWASH&DOSE® simplifies and optimizes those monotonous tasks while adding an additional benefit of reducing possibilities for human error, thereby saving time, reducing cost and increasing output of your dissolution laboratory.
Usage
Working principle
The unit is prepared at a filling station – media and hot rinse containers are filled, and waste container is emptied – all this via pre-installed hoses with quick connect fittings. Then the easily portable unit is ready to be pushed into a position next to the dissolution tester. The operator uses an easy to operate LCD touchscreen to select the desired program – i.e. mode of operation.
Depending on the program selected, the dissolution vessels are emptied, hot water rinsed and filled with fresh media. All three steps are performed subsequently on each vessel, using only one tool and with no adjustments or additional steps necessary. The unit can then be moved to the next tester and the procedure repeated. Up to 5 testers with 6 vessels (900 mL) or an equivalent of 9 testers with 6 vessels (500 mL) can be attended to before an other stop at the refill station is necessary.
In addition, the upper tester parts (shafts, evaporation covers, cannulas and probes) can be washed using a second handheld tool (delivered as an option). User can switch between methods, selecting from:
waste emptying and vessel washing
media dispensing only
emptying, washing and media dispensing
