The machine works with a single puff engine – the device that delivers the controlled puff to the e-cigarette – cycled around eight individual ports. The flow generated by the puff triggers the e-cigarette and the vapor produced is drawn onto a collection pad for off system analysis. The puff comes in two shapes – ISO bell and square – and users can programme it for volume (up to 70ml on the standard machine and 210ml on the extended volume machine). It is also pro- grammable for duration. Control is through a touch screen, and the controlling PC can interface with a laboratory in- formation management system or store collected data in a secure MS SQL Express database. A key variant allows the addition of four sets of imping- ers or electrostatic traps, which will be available in the first quarter, 2014.

Where an e-cig device is unusual in size, shape or weight, a custom support can be printed overnight in the UK. This allows rapid manufacture of spe- cialized parts. "The challenge of button activated vaping de- vices was solved by an accessory that uses a rubber membrane to open and close on the button, trig- gering a vaping action co-incident with the draw- ing of a puff." Testing e-cigarettes is still new, and Cerulean says it is already developing a pipeline of special- ist e-cigarette products to meet the requirements of laboratories and manufacturing environments. The CETI8 is just the first of their new generation of e-cigarette testers. Left: The new CETI8 vapor generation machine
