Headspace gas analyzer for large volume parenterals
Ensure the sterility and quality of injectable pharmaceuticals with precise headspace analysis, detecting gas concentrations and potential leaks in various packaging formats to safeguard product integrity.

Measures Gas Concentrations in Pharmaceutical Packaging
The NEO HSX series from WILCO AG is designed for precision headspace gas analysis in pharmaceutical packaging. Utilizing laser absorption spectroscopy, this equipment ensures non-destructive measurement of critical gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. It’s ideal for small and large volume parenterals, BFS cards, and IV bags, maintaining container closure integrity across various packaging solutions.
The NEO HSX DUO features dual laser heads for simultaneous O2 and CO2 detection, enhancing productivity and precision with up to 50% reduced standard deviation through fourth-generation laser technology. Operations are simplified with the user-friendly MAVIS system, guiding operators through processes with an intuitive interface and LED status indicators.
The NEO HSX series supports both manual and automated testing, allowing seamless integration into quality control laboratories. It aligns with GMP standards and is 21 CFR Part 11 compliant, ensuring regulatory adherence. The system’s modular nature allows customization, with exchangeable sample holders for flexibility in testing, and integrated process safety features like a position monitoring system. This makes it a versatile choice for pharmaceutical manufacturers, biotechnology companies, CDMOs, and quality control laboratories seeking accurate headspace analysis and integrity assurance in their production lines.
