SOP for Calibration of Electrolab Disintegration Apparatus

OBJECTIVE 
To lay down the procedure for calibration of the Disintegration Test Apparatus for better and error-free use. 

SCOPE 
This procedure is applicable for Disintegration Test Apparatus (MAKE: ELECTROLAB, installed in Quality Control Department.


RESPONSIBILITY 
  • It is the responsibility of QC Executives to perform the calibration of the apparatus to follow the procedure fully. 
  • It is the responsibility of the QC Manager to ensure that the procedure is properly followed. 

FREQUENCY 
Calibration should be conducted once in every six months and after repairs/maintenance. 

  • Start the apparatus as per the current version of SOP for operation. 
  • Place 1000mL of water in the 1000mL beaker and check the following. 

Temperature Setting:
  • When the indicator displays 25°C, measure the temperature of the individual beaker with a thermometer and record the results as per Attachment-I 
  • Repeat the same procedure for measuring the temperature at 37°C and record the results as per Attachment-I.

Strokes / Minute:
  • Record the number of up-down cycles per minute. Note down four readings for each bath and record the results as per Attachment-I.

Oscillations: 
  • Measure the oscillations for Basket A and Basket B four times and calculate the mean value. Using a metric ruler, measure the distance the basket travels between the highest and lowest point of the bottom of the basket through the beaker. Record the results as per Attachment-I.
