Optical inspection system Apollo I

manualvisualfor the pharmaceutical industry

Overview
The Apollo I Liquid Inspection Unit provides visual particulate inspection for clear liquid pharmaceutical injections and intravenous infusions in transparent containers. It supports manual inspection workflows by making particulate contamination visible to the inspector.

Key features

• Visual particulate detection - Double-polarised inspection system increases particle contrast against the background.
• Inspection principle - Polarised backlight combined with a second polarised front filter (set at 90°) causes moving particles to refract light and become visible.
• Magnification - 1.7× optical magnification for observation of small particulates.
• LED illumination - Integrated LED light source delivers bright, uniform illumination with long service life.
• Ergonomic operator design - Adjustable height and viewing angle; visible components finished in black to reduce reflections.
• Quick setup and usability - Supplied ready for rapid assembly and straightforward setup on delivery.
• Validation support - IQ and OQ documentation available on request to support GMP validation requirements.
