Bulk Density Apparatus
Product Code : JA-TOBDA-2222
The Bulk Density Apparatus (SKU JA-TOBDA-2222) studies how powder beds of pharmaceutical and chemical powders, flakes, pellets and granules pack down under repeated tapping. The number of strokes is set with SET, UP and DOWN keys, a cushioned common holder raises and drops two cylinders, and tapping stops at the set count with an audible alarm. This bulk density apparatus is supplied by JaincoLab.
Specifications
The stroke count is set anywhere from 1 to 9999 and each stroke is shown on a 4-digit red LED; the last set count is kept when the instrument is switched off, and after a power failure counting resumes from where it stopped.

- Capsule filling and cosmetic powder formulation work
- Micromeritics practicals in B.Pharm physical pharmaceutics
- Density checks on chemical flakes and pellets
