Description

Accurate, Automated Powder Compaction Analysis with the Powder Tap Density Tester DPD1001

Ensure consistent powder characterization for pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food, and battery materials with the Powder Tap Density Tester DPD1001—a precise, programmable instrument engineered to determine tap density and compressibility in full compliance with USP <616>, EP 2.9.34, ISO 3953, and ASTM B527. By mechanically tapping a graduated cylinder containing a powder sample, the DPD1001 measures volume reduction to calculate tap density (g/mL) and Hausner ratio, critical parameters for flowability, blend uniformity, and tablet compression.

Engineered for Reproducibility, Compliance, and Ease of Use

The DPD1001 Powder Tap Density Tester features a motorized tapping mechanism with adjustable drop height (3 mm or 14 mm per USP/EP), programmable tap count (1–9999 taps), and dual-cylinder capacity for parallel testing. Its digital counter ensures exact replication of standard methods, while the clear acrylic housing allows visual monitoring of the process. Results are calculated automatically using sample weight and final volume.

  • Compliant with USP <616>, EP 2.9.34, ISO 3953 & ASTM B527 – Validated for regulated industries.
  • Adjustable Tap Height: 3 mm (EP) or 14 mm (USP) – Switch between pharmacopeial standards with ease.
  • Programmable Tap Count: 1–9999 taps – Supports standard protocols (e.g., 500 or 1250 taps) or custom methods.
  • Dual-Position Design – Test two samples simultaneously for higher throughput.
  • Includes Certified Graduated Cylinders – 25 mL and 100 mL borosilicate glass cylinders with volume markings.
  • Compact, Benchtop Design with Safety Guard – Quiet operation; meets lab safety requirements.

Trusted in Pharmaceutical and Industrial QC Labs

Tap density directly impacts powder flow, die filling, and content uniformity in tablets. The DPD1001 enables:

Raw material qualification for APIs and excipients
Batch-to-batch consistency verification
Formulation development for direct compression
Quality control of battery cathode/anode powders
Its automation eliminates manual tapping variability, ensuring data integrity for GMP, ISO, and FDA audits.

Whether you’re developing a new oral solid dosage form or optimizing a lithium-ion battery slurry, the Powder Tap Density Tester DPD1001 delivers the precision and compliance your powder analysis demands.

Standardize compaction. Ensure flow. Guarantee quality.
