Aseptic isolator

floor-standingsteam

All of Dec’s containment technologies and systems comply with pharmaceutical quality manufacturing standards and are available for aseptic operations. These can be easily integrated into existing production lines. Dec has designed various sterile isolator solutions with specific control over potential contamination sources. Operator intervention, which is the highest contamination cause, is eliminated. To ensure the Sterility Assurance Level, the isolator is biologically decontaminated with VHP (Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide) and the process equipment is sterilized with steam. Depending on process requirements, Dec can provide both turbulent and laminar air flow isolator systems. Turbulent air flow comes in where the positive differential pressure and clean, i.e. aseptic condition and/or safe environment are maintained by using a forced ventilation system, mostly applied when handling powder with a risk of dust creation. ​Unidirectional airflow systems ensure that particles are rapidly swept away from critical areas. It is therefore appropriate to use unidirectional flow in processes where mechanical equipment or material handling within the isolator produces particles which could contaminate the process, e.g. liquid filling. Dec has furthermore developed a unique solution by using the PTS Powder Transfer System® to interface in a fully sealed way various process equipment and isolators system eliminating any risk of loss of sterility.
