To provide accuracy and reproducibility, this system employs a unique software algorithm that utilises data points from the accurate portion of a pressure-flow curve while avoiding dependencies on the volatile portions.
The Integritest 4 also brings new test options for accelerated mode, asymmetric bubble point, multi-layer pre-pressurisation, and pressure hold tests.
Test results are provided via the built-in printer, and a barcode reader input is available for accurate product identification.
Clean room compatible, the Millipore integrity testing device is a robust and modular system enclosed in a water and splash resistant case.
A built-in high efficiency filter prevents dust produced by the instrument.
Instrument-grade inlet and outlet connections on the pneumatic manifold assembly minimise leads and provide more precise results.
The exterior surfaces can be wiped clean with alcohol, bleach and dilute sodium hydroxide.
Developed and validated according to the GAMP 4 Guide for Validation of Automated Systems, the Integritest 4 instrument can be qualified on-site using a customised validation protocol.
