At a glance: The Huanghai CJY-300E is a dual-drum tablet friability tester from Huanghai Pharmaceutical Instruments (Shanghai, since 1978) that runs the test by revolution count or by timer, at a speed and direction you choose. Weighing stays on your own precision balance, as the pharmacopoeia describes, which keeps drum vibration away from the balance. It follows USP <1216>, ChP 0923 and Ph. Eur. 2.9.7. IQ/OQ document templates are provided; on-site validation is performed by the end user.

What the Huanghai CJY-300E does for your lab

Two drums on one instrument. Two standard friability drums, each 286 mm inside diameter and 39 mm deep, come with the instrument.
Speed and direction you choose. Set 20–100 RPM and run clockwise or counter-clockwise, with speed accuracy of ≤ ±1%.
Count it or time it. Set 1–1,000 revolutions (default 100), or use timer mode, preset up to 9 h 59 min 59 s, counting up or down.
Weighing stays independent, by design. The CJY-300E leaves weighing, drum emptying and observation to you: the pharmacopoeia calls for manual weighing on a precision balance, and drum vibration can disturb a balance sensor or add positioning error to automated emptying. Keeping them separate protects the reliability of your result.
Smooth, low-energy running. Steady operation at only 30 W.
Touch screen, English and Chinese. A touch-screen interface with a bilingual English / Chinese switch keeps operation simple.
Power that works anywhere. A DC 12 V universal adapter suits power supplies worldwide.
An optional 12-blade abrasive drum. For supplementary abrasion testing, in place of a standard drum. Details are in the section below.

Optional 12-Blade Abrasive Drum

CJY-300E ships with two standard friability drums. Huanghai also supplies an abrasive drum with 12 blades as an optional accessory, sold separately. It has 12 flat blades around the inside of a clear drum instead of the single curved baffle of the standard drum. Abrasion drums like this are used to look at surface wear from tablets rubbing against each other, as happens in transport and handling, while the pharmacopoeial friability test measures the stress of tablets being lifted and dropped. Release testing to USP <1216>, Ph. Eur. 2.9.7 and ChP 0923 uses the standard drum. See standard drum vs 12-blade abrasive drum.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does USP <1216> specify?
A drum with an inside diameter of 283–291 mm and depth of 36–40 mm, rotated at 25 ± 1 RPM for 100 revolutions. CJY-300E drums are 286 mm × 39 mm.

What is an acceptable friability result?
A maximum mean weight loss of not more than 1.0% is acceptable for most products. If cracked, cleaved or broken tablets are present after tumbling, the sample fails.

How many tablets are tested?
For tablets with a unit weight of 650 mg or less, a sample as close as possible to 6.5 g; for tablets over 650 mg, 10 whole tablets.

Why is weighing done on a separate balance?
Friability is calculated from weights before and after the test. The CJY-300E keeps weighing separate by design: drum vibration can disturb a precision balance, so a separate balance gives more reliable results.

How many drums does the CJY-300E have, and what size?
Two standard drums, each 286 mm inside diameter and 39 mm deep.

Can I run the test by time instead of revolutions?
Yes. Choose count mode (1–1,000 revolutions, default 100) or timer mode (preset up to 9 h 59 min 59 s, counting up or down).

What power supply does it use?
DC 12 V, 3.0 A through a universal adapter, so it runs on power supplies worldwide.
