Our new, lightweight spectrophotometer keeps all the best features of our production system.  Our self-referencing scheme (patent pending) makes this spectrophotometer easy to use.

The user has a choice of several different detectors, both Silicon and InGaAs.  Silicon diode arrays cover the spectral range 200nm to 1100nm.  InGaAs detectors provide coverage from 900nm to 2500nm.

The same instrument can be used in several different environments from the laboratory to production floor.  A dust proof version is currently available.

Feasibility studies on fluid bed dryers and coaters are easy.  With the spectrophotometer mounted on a tripod, one can look through existing windows.

 

CDI Pharma is a division of Control Development, Inc.  The division was formed to serve the unique needs of the pharmaceutical industry.  Control Development, Inc., an instrument and sensor maker has a fifteen-year history of innovation in dynamic process analysis.  We are one of the largest producers of NIR diode array based spectrometers today with over 1,000 systems in place globally.

CDI Pharma has trained its staff to professional pharmaceutical standards, instituted GMP-compatible qualification packages, and has instituted audit-ready software support programs.
