The Dynascan MediBLUE automates the industry-standard method of methylene blue dye leak testing and used for identifying leaks in various types of packages. Used extensively in the pharmaceutical, medical devices industries and for all types of consumer products. The test is made by submerging a package into a blue dye solution, the test chamber is placed under a vacuum that forces air from any openings within the pack. After returning to ambient pressure, the dye will penetrate and be evident within the pack should any holes be present. Blue dye testing has proven to be a popular package leak detection option within many industries. This is due to its simple, reliable and valid results and low capital costs.
The Dynascan MediBLUE range is available in two configurations, MediBLUE Pre-set and MediBLUE Programmable.
Based on discrete electronic circuit design, the MediBLUE Pre-set does not require any software validation. The system is supplied pre-set with parameters, as specified by the users S.O.P. Both audible and visual alarms are integrated into the instrument, to alert the user at the end of each test cycle.
Alternatively, the MediBLUE Programmable system allows the user to set the test vacuum, vacuum hold and ambient dwell times during the packaging development process to determine the optimum test conditions. The system can be locked into a run mode, preventing any unauthorised changes to the test method.
