FAQ's of FTV-201 Friability Tester Friabilator:

Q: How does the FTV-201 Friability Tester work?

A: The FTV-201 operates by rotating tablets within a clear acrylic drum at a controlled speed of 25 rpm, simulating abrasion. The loss in tablet weight after a set number of revolutions or time (programmed using the digital interface) measures their friability or resistance to wear.

Q: What is the benefit of the automatic stop feature on the FTV-201?

A: The automatic stop ensures the test ends precisely when the programmed time or revolution count is reached, providing consistency, reducing manual oversight, and enhancing safety during operation.

Q: When should the FTV-201 Friabilator be used in pharmaceutical processes?

A: It should be used during tablet quality control phases, particularly after tablet compression but before product release, to ensure that tablets meet regulatory standards for friability and mechanical strength.

Q: Where is the FTV-201 Friability Tester typically installed?

A: This tester is designed for use in pharmaceutical laboratories. It is a bench-top model, compact in size, suitable for quality control labs in manufacturing, research, and academic environments.

Q: What types of tablets can the FTV-201 accommodate for testing?

A: The FTV-201 supports testing of tablets up to 13 mm in diameter and can hold up to 100 tablets per drum, depending on their size. Both single and double drum models allow flexibility in specimen number.

Q: How do I operate and program the FTV-201 for a friability test?

A: Using the keypad interface, operators can set the desired number of revolutions (1-900) or time (1-99 minutes). Insert the tablets, select parameters, and start the test. The digital display shows progress, and the drum automatically stops when the test concludes.

Q: What advantages does the clear acrylic drum offer during testing?

A: The transparent drum allows operators to visually monitor tablets throughout the test without interrupting operation, ensuring accurate observation while maintaining consistent environmental conditions.
