INTRODUCTION :
This is the Operational Qualification protocol for the Compounding Isolator of Alpha-
Pharma Healthcare at Mumbai. This document has been created to ensure that there is
sufficient information available to enable the equipment to be operated and maintained
safely, effectively and consistently.
PURPOSE :
The purpose of the Operational Qualification (OQ) is to verify that, the equipment or
systems perform and operate in accordance with the KLENZAIDS specifications and PT
Fonko International Pharmaceutical’s requirements. During operational qualification,
we establish the suitability of draft SOP prepared for the operation of the isolator and
document the observations for future reference.
RESPONSIBILITY :
A team shall first review and approve this protocol. The team comprising of a
representative from each of the following departments shall be responsible for over all
compliance of this protocol (Project Department, Engineering Department, Production
Department and Quality Assurance Personal, as a minimum).
acceptance criteria. As each test is completed, the individual performing the test initials
and dates each one. Exceptions are documented in the space provided and resolved prior
to closing the OQ.
Upon completion of the above test, the team reviews the test results and indicates their
acceptance by signing and dating the protocol completion page.
The Compounding Isolator is a fixed type single chamber unit integrated with Client’s
Compounding Vessel, RTP for product transfers. The unit will be used for compounding
of API. One exhaust blower is mounted within the service plenum powers the systems.
The system consists of SS 316 L canister type inlet and exhaust cartridge HEPA filters.
The isolator chambers are constructed from SS 316 L materials with sufficient coving
radius and TIG welded to ensure a crack and crevice free smooth inner surface.

TESTS :
Purpose: To verify that SOP’s are complete enough to allow personnel to operate the
equipment and perform routine maintenance and monitoring.
Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To verify that main chamber pressure are adequate to aid in providing
dispensing Isolator separation between the main chamber and ambient spaces.
Procedure :
Connect the Manometer/Magnehelic Gauge and the Compressed air supply to the
Isolator as shown in the diagram below. Ensure that all the openings to the Isolator are
blocked off, Inlet filter and Exhaust filters blocked off, doors closed and all valves are
closed.
Open the air inlet valve on the compressed air line slightly until a pressure of +300 Pa is
recorded on the Manometer/Magnehelic Gage then close the valve on the compressed
air line. Wait until the pressure in the isolator has reduced to +250 Pa and note the time.
Formula :
The formula for calculating leakage rate is taken from ISO 10648-2.
Record the pressure within the Isolator every minute for a period of 5 minutes and record the
pressure in the table below.

Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To ensure that the Modular function of the isolator match those specified in
the DQ.
Test Equipments : DQ
Procedure : Ensure power is available to the control panel. Perform each check as listed
and record the results in the table below

Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To ensure that the appropriate air change rates met those specify on the DQ
documents.
Procedure : With the Isolator running monitor the air entering or exhausting from the
Chamber using a vane anemometer. From this calculate the volume of air through the
chamber and then calculate the Air Change Rate. Record readings in table below

Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To verify the particle level with in the isolator main chamber as specified in
the URS and / or mutually agreed.
Procedure :
i) Testing shall be conducted after 20 mins of Isolator runs in the healthy conditions.
ii) Select sampling location to collect samples.
iii) Tester shall be inserting the Isolator Chamber, through Canister
iv) Reading shall be taken on display.
v) Records the observations in result table.
vi) Attach the print out along with the document.
Acceptance Criteria : Static condition 0.5 micron or larger particle shall not more than
3520000 in 1 cubic meter of air. 5 micron or larger particle shall not more than 29300 in 1
cubic meter of air.
Conclusions / Comments :
Procedure :
iii) Measure velocity at the geometric centre of the opening. A minimum of 3 samples
at a minimum of 1 location shall be taken
Record Results :
Conclusions / Comments :
Procedure :
i) With the Isolator switched off, record the background noise level in the room, this
need to be as low as possible
iii) Initiate the Isolator and record the sound level again standing 1 meter away from
the isolator.
< 70dbA
Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To verify the integrity of all HEPA Filters housing and filter mounting frames.
The isolator chamber shall be operated at operational air flow for this test.
Acceptance Criteria :
Exhaust Filter penetration must not be greater than 0.01%.
Supply Filter penetration must not be greater than 0.01%.
Conclusions / Comments :
Procedure :
ii) Dock the beta with canister to the Alpha port of rotate RTP several times.
Acceptance Criteria :
Conclusions / Comments :
Purpose : To verify the amount of time required by the isolator main chamber to recover
to the previously validated particle levels after an event such as an open door or surge of
process generated contamination.
Test Equipment : Portable Particle Counter, Time keeping device capable of reading in
mins and seconds.
Procedure :
- Isolator shall be in running condition.
- Testing shall be conducted after 5 mins. of Isolator’s door in open conditions.
- Select sampling location to collect samples.
- Tester shall be inserting the Isolator Chamber.
- Reading shall be taken on display.
- Records the observations in result table.
- Attach the print out along with the document.
Conclusions / Comments :
Procedure :
i. Place the equipment and tools to be used in the process inside the isolator.
ii. Ensure that the gauntlets are fitted.
iii. Confirm that the operations are possible.
