As an experienced and full-service group, SMB has validated Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems and their microprocessor controllers in multi-unit, multi-zone manufacturing/R&D facilities.

Validation of an HVAC system requires a thorough understanding of the facility design, and the purpose of each zone/room in the facility. What are the areas and zones in the facility? What are their classes? What area(s) does each particular Air Handling Unit (AHU) service? Are these 100% fresh air supply AHU's, or do they incorporate return air? What control system is in place to monitor and regulate air temperature, humidity, and pressure differentials? How many air changes per hour are required for each zone? Each room? These are all questions that need to be answered to understand the design intent of a facility's HVAC system.

Next the validation strategy should be determined, including the length and intensity of the validation effort (number of sampling weeks and number samples in a day), the status of the facility during sampling (Static? Dynamic? Both?), and the sampling strategy (how and where will samples be taken (temperature, humidity, pressure, particulate) and what are the acceptance criteria).

The HVAC system's controller requires careful study, too. Is this a rudimentary system controlling a single AHU, or a complex, microprocessor-based control servicing multiple AHU's? Is the control system part of a Building Automation (or Management) System responsible for security, fire, etc.? How will your validation activities impact the BAS/BMS? Is this functionality being added on to an existing control system? How will your validation activities affect the existing validation? How should the room sampling regime coincide with reporting from the BAS/BMS? What aspects of GAMP should be incorporated into your validation efforts?

Once you have a clear answer to these and other questions, you can begin to write your protocols.

Obviously, the validation of an HVAC system can be a daunting task for a validation department with stretched resources. Make SMB's experience work for you on your next HVAC validation project.

Validation of Purified Water Systems requires a thorough understanding of the facility design and the utility itself. For example, in a USP Water System: Does the source water meet EPA drinking water standards? Are procedures in place to test this? If PVC pipe is used, have proper procedures been followed when preparing and installing the pipe? Could any leachables or extractables be introduced into the system from the PVC pipe, the cement or the solvent? What is the design of the processing loops? Does the design avoid standing water in any loop? Have all deadlegs been minimized? What is the appropriate measurement for a "deadleg": 2-, 3-, 4D? What methods are being used to remove contaminants? Particulate? What control system is in place to monitor and regulate water temperature, pH, and conductivity? How is the water being stored? Does it interact with the air in the storage vessel? How is pressure being regulated throughout the purification system and the distribution loop? Does the purified water meet USP standards? These and others are all questions that need to be answered to understand the design intent of a facility's USP Water System.
