Distek Introduces the OLERA Dissolution Instrument Series

The OLERA Dissolution Instrument Series is engineered to enhance dissolution testing through an improved user experience based on simplified operation and modern system connectivity.

The OLERA Series includes three models—OLERA, OLERA Plus, and OLERA Select—designed to address the requirements of the modern pharmaceutical laboratory.

The OLERA Series supports USP Apparatus 1, 2, 5, and 6, along with intrinsic, immersion, and small volume dissolution methods, providing flexibility across a wide range of applications.

All models incorporate a large touchscreen interface, advanced vessel alignment, and optional remote monitoring through Pulse, enabling browser-based system access and automated notifications without additional software.

The series is available in three configurations:

  • OLERA – A traditional bath-based dissolution instrument with integrated heating and circulation, reducing system complexity and external components, priced to compete with any other dissolution system available.
  • OLERA Plus – Extends the OLERA platform with patented in-shaft temperature monitoring, enabling continuous, real-time temperature measurement for complete compliance assurance throughout the run.
  • OLERA Select – A bathless dissolution instrument utilizing proprietary heating technology to eliminate the water bath, resulting in rapid media heating, reduced energy use by up to 40%, and operation up to 99 °C.

Technologies across the platform:

  • Patented In-Vessel Temperature Monitoring provides continuous temperature recording without fragile sensors impacting vessel hydrodynamics.
  • Integrated Heating & Circulation delivers space-saving built-in thermal controls without external heater/circulators.
  • Bathless Heating eliminates the water bath and attendant cleaning, reduces warmup time and energy use.
  • Large Touchscreen Interface features a 10-inch display for superior UI experience and simplified operation.
  • acculign+ Automated Vessel Alignment ensures reproducible mechanical alignment from run to run.
  • HALO Status Indicator provides at-a-glance system status.
  • Pulse Remote Monitoring enables browser-based monitoring with text and email alerts.
  • Flex Low Temperature supports testing down to 5 °C with an external chiller.
