Validation and calibration of equipment
1. VALIDATION AND CALIBRATION OF EQUIPMENT
Introduction.:
Introduction. What is Validation? This section will define validation and
will put its meaning in terms pertinent for a technical person. What is
Calibration? This section will define calibration and will put its meaning in
terms pertinent for a technical person. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) This section will explain the role of the FDA in validation and the
guidelines it sets forth. Equipment Validation This section will explain
what role unit operations equipment plays in validation and why that is
important
What is Validation?:
What is Validation? According to the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), the goal of validation is to: “ Establish documented evidence
which provides a high degree of assurance that a specific process will
consistently produce a product meeting its predetermined specifications
and quality attributes.” It is a requirement for Good Manufacturing
Practices and other regulatory requirements.
What does this mean? An quantitative approach is needed to prove
quality, functionality, and performance of a
pharmaceutical/biotechnological manufacturing process. This approach
will be applied to individual pieces of equipment as well as the
manufacturing process as a whole. Guidelines for validation are set by
the FDA, but the specifications of validation are determined by the
pharmaceutical/biotech company.
Types.:
Cleaning Validation.
Process Validation.
Analytical Method Validation.
Computer System Validation.
Phases of Validation.:
Phases of Validation. Validation is broken down into 5 main phases,
Design qualification (DQ ). Installation qualification (IQ ). Operational
qualification (OQ ). Performance qualification (PQ). Component
qualification (CQ).

Validation vs. Qualification.:
Validation vs. Qualification. Validation: Refers to the total life cycle of a
product from development through use and maintenance. Owners are
responsible for Validating Their Processes (personnel, equipment,
methods, SOPs) to ensure compliance to cGMP /GLP regulations.
Qualification: (Inspection, functional testing and documentation review)
Is a part of the validation process which verifies module and system
functional performance prior to being placed on-line and thereafter
according to a standard operating procedure.
What is Calibration?:
What is Calibration ? “The operation which assure that an instrument
readings are accurate with referenced to established standards”.
Laboratory instruments that need to be calibrated are balances,
spectrophotometers, pH meters etc. Calibration is performed using
primary reference standard.
Need for Calibration?:
Need for Calibration? With a new instrument. When a specified time
period is elapsed. When a specified usage (operating hours) has
elapsed. When an instrument has had a shock or vibration which
potentially may have put it out of calibration. Sudden changes in
weather. Whenever observations appear questionable.
Validation vs Calibration:
Validation vs Calibration A calibration is a process that compares a
known (the standard) against an unknown (test's device). During the
calibration process, the offset between these two devices is quantified
and the test's device is adjusted back into tolerance (if possible). A true
calibration usually contains both "as found" and "as left" data. A
validation is a detailed process of confirming that the instrument is
installed correctly, that it is operating effectively, and that it is performing
without error. Because a validation must test all three of these
operational parameters, it is broken into three different tests: the
installation qualification (IQ), the operational qualification (OQ), and the
performance qualification (PQ).
3. Qualification vs Calibration.:

Qualification Workbooks(IQ, OQ, PQ) & Project Diskettes Accuracy,
Linearity and Precision Tests Appropriate for companies without
approved qualification procedures Meets or exceeds US FDA
qualification requirements. Calibration Protocols Accuracy Tests Only
Appropriate for companies that have approved validation procedures
Basic documentation for maintenance and calibration
Equipment Validation:
Equipment Validation As mentioned earlier, each piece of must be
validated in order to legally operate within the facility. The goal is to
produce consistent results with minimal variation without compromising
the integrity of the product and the persons operating the equipment. A
plan of validation should be drafted and executed by engineers in order
to satisfy guidelines. The validation plan generally consists of IQ and OQ
sections. Any major equipment changes after the initial validation will
result in the need for subsequent revalidation. In the end, equipment
validation will create specification ranges and tolerances that will be
applied to the normal operation of equipment.
