Pharmatron Tap Density Testers

The tapped density tester series JV have been designed to measure the tapped density of powders, granules and similar products in accordance with USP Chapter <616> Method 2 and European Pharmacopoeia Chapter 2.9.15. The JV is particularly useful in powder flowability studies and aslo in determining the amount of settlement during transit to optimize pack sizes. Tapped density is achieved by mechanically tapping a measuring cylinder (i.e. raising the cyclinder and allowing it to drop a specified distance under its own weight) containing the sample under test.

Two versions of the tester (JV 1000 and JV 2000) are available dependent on the number of test stations required (1 or 2). Both versions utilize 250 ml measuring cylinders as standard. Smaller cylinders such as 100 ml or other volumes are also available if required.

Both of the instruments are equipped with membrane keypads for setting the number of strokes or time on an LCD screen. Progress of the test is displayed on the screen during testing.
