ISO 11608 Pen Injector Dose Accuracy Testing

ISO 11608 Pen Injector Dose Accuracy Testing

ISO 11608 Pen Injector Dose Accuracy Testing

The ISO 11608 standard provides essential guidelines for ensuring that pen injectors deliver accurate doses of medication to patients. This testing is critical in the medical device sector, as precision and reliability are paramount when administering injectable medications. The primary purpose of this service is to verify that a pen injector's dose delivery meets or exceeds the required accuracy levels specified by ISO 11608.

The testing process involves a series of rigorous trials designed to simulate real-world usage conditions, ensuring the device performs consistently across various scenarios. This includes temperature variations and humidity levels, which can significantly impact performance. By adhering strictly to ISO standards, our team ensures that every test accurately reflects how the product will perform in the hands of healthcare professionals.

Our service covers a wide range of pen injector models and sizes, from single-use devices to multi-dose pens. We employ state-of-the-art equipment tailored specifically for this type of testing, allowing us to provide precise and reliable results every time. Our methodologies are designed to catch even the smallest deviations from expected performance, ensuring that only high-quality products make it into clinical use.

Before any testing begins, our team conducts a thorough examination of each pen injector model to ensure it meets all necessary pre-requisites for ISO 11608 compliance. This includes verifying dimensions, material composition, and other relevant characteristics. Once the initial assessment is complete, we proceed with dose accuracy tests using various payloads and ambient conditions.

The actual testing process involves several steps, each aimed at evaluating different aspects of the pen injector's performance:

  • Calibration checks to ensure all instruments are operating correctly
  • Initial dose verification ensuring correct volume before any tests begin
  • Dose delivery trials under controlled conditions (temperature and humidity)
  • Post-dose measurement to confirm the delivered volume matches what was intended

The results of these tests are meticulously recorded and analyzed, allowing us to provide detailed reports on each device's performance. These reports include not only pass/fail criteria but also specific data points that help manufacturers understand any areas needing improvement.

Our ISO 11608 pen injector dose accuracy testing service is ideal for medical device companies looking to ensure their products meet the highest standards of quality and reliability. By working with us, you can rest assured knowing that your product has undergone thorough evaluation and validation according to internationally recognized guidelines.
