Update on Von Gahlen's LFS Family - renewed dispensers OVDD-CAN & CVDD-CAN

17-12-24, 13:46

At Von Gahlen, we would like to share an update on the enhancements in our dispenser lineup, specifically comparing the current OVDD-SA & CVDD-SA models with the newly developed OVDD-CAN & CVDD-CAN models. The latest innovations reflect our ongoing commitment to advancing safety, usability, and regulatory compliance in radiopharmaceutical solutions.

Key Design and Safety Upgrades

The CAN dispenser family incorporates significant advancements, especially in terms of stability and durability in high radiation fields. In the new hardware design, we have removed as many sensitive electronics as possible from the direct radiation fields. This fundamental redesign has reduced complexity and increased reliability. Additionally, the unit has integrated tungsten shielding, providing enhanced radiation resistance to ensure safer operation.

Changes in Connectivity

This upgrade is complemented by the option to support the Mirion-Capintec SMART chamber, which can replace the Nuvia MED chamber, offering greater flexibility in system configurations.

Streamlined Operations with Enhanced Software

The overall workflow remains user-friendly and familiar. Users can select recipes, create pending batches, and initiate runs with a straightforward process. However, the new dispenser's software introduces an audit trail feature, a pivotal improvement that tracks and records all system activities. Developed and validated according to GAMP standards, this feature complies with Eudralex V4 Annex 11 and 21 CFR Part 11, ensuring comprehensive transparency and facilitating regulatory compliance.

Retained Functionalities and Enhanced Flexibility

Despite the upgrades, key functionalities of the OVDD-CAN dispenser family remain consistent with the previous models. These include:
• Disposable sets for efficient operation.
• Automated weighing during filling.

• A fully automated filter integrity test.

Powerful Centralized Configuration 

Thanks to the new control system, the sequence flexibility has been significantly improved. Manual mode now allows users to step through processes as needed, offering greater control and precision. Additionally, the separate test and adjustment programs are now fully integrated into the new software. This feature allows us to configure and manage your entire process from one convenient, unified environment and ensure system security while maintaining advanced diagnostic capabilities.
