Polyurethane Insulated Pressure Vessels for Pharmaceutical and Biotech FAQs
What documentation is provided for pharmaceutical vessels?
We provide comprehensive documentation packages including material certifications, weld maps, NDE reports, pressure test records, surface finish verification, and dimensional reports. IQ/OQ documentation support and FAT protocols are available to support customer validation requirements.
Can vessels be designed for steam sterilization?
Yes, we design vessels for SIP (Steam-in-Place) sterilization with appropriate pressure ratings, condensate management, and temperature monitoring provisions. The polyurethane insulation system is designed to withstand the temperatures associated with steam sterilization cycles.
What surface finish requirements apply to pharmaceutical vessels?
Pharmaceutical vessels typically require electropolished surfaces with Ra values below 15-25 microinches depending on application. All product contact welds are ground flush and polished. Passivation is performed per ASTM A967 or A380. Surface finish is documented with profilometer measurements.
