Comprehensive design qualification and factory acceptance tests are performed on the Esco Hospital Pharmacy Isolator.

  • Filter Leak Tests verify the integrity of the ULPA filters as-installed.
  • Downflow Velocity Tests verify adequate laminar air flow velocities and air change rates in the main chamber and pass-thru.
  • Dynamic Pressure Test determines if main chamber and pass-thru pressures are adequate to aid in providing
  • separation between the main chamber and ambient environment. Glove-pull’s are simulated to ensure differential pressure is maintained during actual operation.
  • Particle Counts (Air Cleanliness Tests) verify air cleanliness in accordance with ISO 14644-1 criteria for both the main chamber and pass-thru.
  • Product Ingress and Egress Tests determines if the isolator work zone can maintain ISO Class 3, during material transfers with no wait or purge time during the transfer process, when used outside an ISO Class 7 cleanroom, as per USP 797.
  • Recovery Time Test determines the amount of time the main chamber takes to recover to ISO Class 4 after an event such as a full window opening or large scale contamination.
  • Gauntlet Breach Test determines product protection in case of a glove failure.
  • Operator Comfort Tests include noise, light and vibration.
