This Varian VK905 Dissolution Mobile Wash Station is in great condition and is guaranteed to be fully functional. This unit came from a local lab that had surplus lightly used equipment. We will be happy to provide additional information as well as photos so please feel free to contact us with any questions. Varian, Inc. (Nasdaq: VARI) today debuted the VK 905 Mobile Washing Station, the next generation of wash station, which enhances productivity in pharmaceutical laboratories. This fully mobile unit allows scientists to clean dissolution vessels without removing them from dissolution testing systems, saving time and eliminating the possibility of breaking expensive vessels. Scientists in the pharmaceutical and nutritional industries use dissolution testers to determine bioavailability, or the rate at which active ingredients in drug forms become available to be used by the body. Bioavailability testing by this method is required throughout the pharmaceutical manufacturing process to ensure product quality and stability. Measuring approximately 40 inches tall and 30 inches wide, the washing station can be easily wheeled from tester-to-tester to service vessels in place, alleviating the time-consuming need of re-verification for subsequent testing. Ordinarily, the location of each vessel is recorded when a vessel is placed in a dissolution bath and the centering is measured and the height adjustment of the paddle is verified. Each time a vessel is removed for cleaning, the verification process needs to be repeated to maintain accurate parameters. Additionally, use of the VK 905 ensures each vessel is cleaned consistently in the same manner. The standard heating capability on the VK 905 allows the use of cleaning fluids heated up to 50 degrees C. Each one-liter vessel can be cleaned in less than 30 seconds. The VK 905 is a cleaning, containment and disposal system all-in-one and can be utilized with any vendor's dissolution tester.
