Frequently Asked Questions
1. What surface finishes are required for pharmaceutical high-pressure reactors?
Pharmaceutical high-pressure reactors typically require electropolished surfaces meeting ASME BPE requirements, usually Ra ≤ 0.5 μm for product contact surfaces. Surface finish is verified by profilometer measurement with documented results. We design for cleanability throughout the high-pressure system including sampling and instrumentation connections.
2. How do you ensure contamination-free operation at high pressure?
Magnetic drive agitators eliminate shaft seals entirely for zero-leakage operation. High-quality mechanical seals with barrier fluid systems prevent product contamination when shaft seals are required. Material selection, surface preparation, and cleaning procedures all contribute to contamination prevention. We design complete systems for pharmaceutical cleanliness requirements.
3. What documentation supports pharmaceutical validation?
Documentation includes material certifications, welding records, surface finish verification, pressure test certificates, dimensional inspection, and IQ/OQ support documentation. Heat treatment records, NDE reports, and cleaning procedure validation support FDA and EMA regulatory requirements. We provide complete documentation packages for pharmaceutical installations.
