Containment Guard

Highly-active substances demand particularly safe production processes. The use of Containment and WiP (Wash-in-Place) systems safeguards the health of operators. Product changeovers can be carried out significantly faster using WiP. Equipping a WiP machine with a Containment package permits entirely new possibilities when processing highly-active granulates. The manual describes the fundamentals and the framework conditions of a systematic measurement procedure and outlines the process for recording a tableting system’s relevant statuses.

Absolutely reliable containment is of increasing importance in the pharmaceutical production of Highly Potent Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (HPAPI). The aim is to reliably protect patients from the risks of cross-contamination and to eliminate any risk for operators of the machine when handling highly-active substances. Fette developed the Containment Guard to meet these challenges while simultaneously safeguarding your efficiency during manufacturing. The system comprises:

• A test process in accordance with the measurement criteria of the SMEPAC Guideline (Standardized Measurement Particulate Airborne Concentration).
• The basis for technical development of containment solutions in tableting.
