Tapped volume/tester SVM Tapped Density Tester Easily measure the tapped volume of powders, granulates and similar products Determination of tapped volume with highest precision The ERWEKA SVM has been designed for measuring the tapped volume and tapped density of powders, granules and similar products. The SVM series works in accordance with USP and EP and is available for USP method 1 and USP method 2 with 1 or 2 test stations. In addition, the combination device SVM 223 is equipped with 2 test stations - one for method 1 and one for method 2 (testing only time-controlled, not based on the number of strokes). The robust but precise construction allows numerous tests with highest accuracy and thanks to the reduced membrane keyboard and the LC display, the devices of the SVM series are easy to use. After completion of the test, the automatical y calculated test results can be printed out as a report. 100% USP/EP-com- Automatic calculati- pliant measuring on of the Hausner method according to factor strokes and time Different conforming Interface for glass cylinders immediate printing available on request of the results Optional noise box Detailed test report available for noise containment Robust and compact Due to their robust design, the devices are extremely reliable and durable and, thanks to their compactness, require little laboratory space. 2 The highlights of the SVM Automatic calculation of the test results NEW The devices of the SVM series allow an automatic calculation of the test results. This is done by entering the intermediate results into the device after every three or four tapping periods. The following values can be calculated: • Initial bulk density • Tapped density • Hausner factor • Compressibility index 100% USP/EP compliant The SVM series works 100% USP/EP compliant and provides reliable test results. Regular tapping results in rapid, constant compression of the volume. Detailed test report With the help of the print function all test results can be displayed in detail in a test report. The index is listed with V0 or V10 depending on the setting. 3 SVM Pr The highlights of the SVM ecise determination of the tapped volume I The highlights of the SVM One device - two methods The SVM 223 The SVM 223 combines two different methods in one single unit. The first test station works according to the lifting height requirements according to USP/EP method 1 with a lifting height of 14 mm. The second test station works, at the same time, in accordance to USP/EP method 2 with a lifting height of 3 mm. Both test stations are in paral el operation and run with the respective strokes per minute. (USP 1: 300 +/- 15 strokes per minute, USP 2: 250 +/- 15 strokes per minute). The test runs time control ed and not by number of strokes. Accurate measurements – Effective The fol owing table provides an overview of the Implementation variants of the SVM series. The 5 devices are equipped with different test stations and according to different USP methods.

Optional: Noise Box The ERWEKA noise reduction box is the perfect addition to our tapped density tester. The noise box is made of sturdy polymer housing and is lined with a 30 mm thick, white EPE damp-ing material. It reduces the noise of a tapped volume tester by up to 25 dB (A).* Dimensions and Data Inside height, width, 761 mm x 390 mm x 497 mm depth Height, width, depth 841 mm x 472 mm x 594 mm Weight 25 kg Noise reduction* appr. 25 dB (A) *Compared to open SVM tapped density tests (measured from the standard hori-zontal distance to the noise chamber of 0.65 m and 1.6 m from the floor) 5 SVM Different equipment options I Equipment Test run USP/EP procedure A classic test run with automatic calculation proceeds as follows: Start the device Specification of the lifting height, depending Number of strokes Auto. calculation Time I I on USP method 1 or 2 100 ml, 250 ml Cylinder size or 500 ml Sample weight in g Sample weight Initial volume in ml Initial volume 10 strokes performed, read volume, enter the value 500 strokes performed, read volume, enter the value 1250 strokes performed, read volume, enter the value Important: If the volume difference after 500 and 1250 strokes is less than or equal 2 ml, the measurement is finished. Otherwise another 1250 strokes are necessary (1 ml for 100 ml cylinder).
