Atex compliant isolator for dispensing powder procedures

Ensure safe weighing and transfer of explosive and pharmaceutical powders with a compliant chamber that provides optimal isolation and contamination control during dispensing procedures.

Ensures Safe Transfer and Weighing of Explosive Powders

The ATEX Isolator from Comecer is an engineered solution designed for the safe handling of pharmaceutical powders and explosive substances. This isolator features a highly controlled chamber ideal for activities such as weighing and powder transfer. Equipped with a fully PLC-controlled interface, it integrates seamlessly into existing batch or semi-automatic operations, allowing for precise process control and monitoring.

The equipment is particularly effective in manufacturing settings dealing with pharmaceutical tablets, fine chemical powders, and energetic materials. It supports a range of industries, including pharmaceutical, chemical, and biotech, by ensuring compliance with ATEX ZONE 22 Ex II3D requirements for working with hazardous materials.

Inside the isolator, the inclusion of Magnehelic and Photohelic manometers ensures accurate pressure control and air filter monitoring, respectively. A unique RTP system facilitates the safe discharge of materials, optimizing workflow and reducing contamination risk.

Constructed with stainless steel AISI 316L, the isolator offers excellent resistance to corrosion, crucial for maintaining integrity in chemically aggressive environments. The adoption of GAMP 5 compliant software and optional 21 CFR Part 11 availability highlights its suitability for regulated industries.

Furthermore, the isolator incorporates features for efficient cleaning and maintenance, such as spray balls and spray guns, streamlining the decontamination process. Customization options are available to meet specific operational needs, backed by comprehensive engineering support from Comecer.
