In today’s fast-paced pharmaceutical industry, accurate moisture analysis is crucial for ensuring product quality and compliance. The HX204 Halogen Moisture Analyzer stands out as a premier solution, offering high-performance capabilities that meet the rigorous demands of this sector.
This article highlights the key features of the HX204, focusing on its compliance readiness, connectivity, accuracy, and suitability for loss on drying (LoD) testing according to European Pharmacopoeia (EP) standards.
The HX204 delivers precise moisture content measurements with a readability of 0.001%. Its high-performance weighing cell is thermally isolated from the heating source, maintaining accuracy even at low moisture levels found in pharmaceutical applications. This ensures reliable and repeatable results for various sample types, which is essential for meeting stringent moisture level requirements.
In the highly regulated pharmaceutical industry, compliance is non-negotiable.
The HX204 features built-in routine testing methods, including FACT and SmartCal, to continuously validate performance. These capabilities help ensure that the instrument consistently meets compliance requirements, making it a dependable choice for quality control.
The instrument also supports SOP adherence through user management capabilities, allowing multiple users with individualized access rights to enhance security and efficiency in laboratory environments.
The European Pharmacopeia has recently updated Chapter 2.2.32, “Loss on Drying“, to include halogen moisture analyzers as an acceptable alternative to the drying oven reference method. The procedure is also far simpler and doesn’t require specialist skills.
By validating the results of halogen moisture analysis against those from the drying oven, companies can benefit from a convenient and compliant alternative loss on drying solution.
With HX204 halogen moisture analyzer in QC laboratory, the LoD results are delivered in 5-15 minutes, in contrast to the drying oven, which typically takes 2-3 hours. For more information: https://www.mt.com/au/en/home/library/white-papers/laboratory-weighing/Moisture-Method-Development.html
The HX204 excels in connectivity, enabling integration into existing laboratory systems. Network connectivity facilitates easy data transfer and remote monitoring, supporting better process control. Additionally, users can tailor reporting features to align moisture analysis data with regulatory requirements and internal standards.
The HX204 Halogen Moisture Analyzer is a powerful ally for pharmaceutical companies seeking high-performance moisture analysis. With its unparalleled accuracy, compliance readiness, and integrated connectivity features, it empowers laboratories to meet modern quality control challenges. Investing in advanced technologies like the HX204 is key to maintaining competitive advantage and ensuring product quality and patient safety.
