FAQ's of Integrity Tests for Pharmaceutical Packaging Bottle Seal Liners:
Q: How does the Integrity Test System detect seal liner leaks in pharmaceutical bottles?
A: The system employs vacuum decay and pressure hold methods to identify leaks in the seal liners of pharmaceutical packaging. It creates a controlled pressure environment around the sample and monitors pressure changes to indicate leakage, providing both pass/fail results and precise numeric data.
Q: What types of seal liners are compatible with this test method?
A: The device is compatible with various seal liner types, including induction, pressure sensitive, and foam liners. Its flexible clamping and adjustable testing parameters allow it to evaluate both soft and rigid liners, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of pharmaceutical applications.
Q: When should pharmaceutical companies use this Integrity Test System?
A: Pharmaceutical manufacturers and quality assurance labs should use this system during routine quality control inspections, process validation, and prior to product release. It ensures packaging integrity to maintain sterility and regulatory compliance throughout the product lifecycle.
Q: Where can I access technical support for the Integrity Test System?
A: Technical support is available both online and onsite. As an exporter, manufacturer, and supplier based in China, we provide responsive service support to address user inquiries, perform maintenance, or resolve technical issues efficiently.
Q: What is the process for conducting an integrity test with this machine?
A: To perform a test, mount up to five bottles (with seal liners) onto the benchtop system. Set test parameters via the microcomputer control panel, initiate the test, and the device will automatically carry out the vacuum decay or pressure hold method. Results are displayed on the LCD screen and saved for record-keeping.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this Integrity Test System?
