General issues for dry heat sterilizers / depyrogenation ovens

When purchasing a dry heat sterilizer/depyrogenation oven (DHS), it is necessary to clarify the level of performance within the critical criteria for dry heat sterilization and depyrogenation and to clarify the impact on surroundings.

This paper will focus on the following items:

  • Environmental classification
  • Temperature
  • Impact on surroundings

The HECHT Big bag stations are designed to meet the most demanding applications. The range goes from basic stations to discharging of high potent powders using the patented EC “Easy Connect” technology. Various options are available.
The Duo-Batch and Multi-Batch series are the big brothers of Micro-Batch, and can decontaminate from 10 000 to 50 000 liters per day. The unit has no heat exchanger and no pump, takes a small footprint, and can be adapted to BSL2-3-4 applications.
The patent-pending Containment-Sampling-Stick CPS is used for sampling e.g. in incoming goods or for quality control of critical materials up to OEB 5.This new, mobile and cost-effective solution with optional transport trolley enables sampling in just a few steps.

Aqua-Nova stills mark a significant leap in distillation technology with reduced steam velocity and enhanced performance. Their robust, reliable design, complete with modulating control valves for all fluids, guarantees optimal operation across all conditions.

Aqua-Nova’s ‘float’ type heat exchangers excel by completely submerging in water, preventing thermal stress that may lead to micro cracks. This design ensures uniform contraction and expansion of tubes and the mantle under consistent steam and water conditions.

Lytzen has been fully specialized in depyrogenation ovens for over 50 years. What makes Lytzen unique is their highly specialized knowledge in this special application of batch depyrogenation in chambers ranging from 590 liters to about 7000 liters.

Lyophilization, commonly known as freeze-drying, is a crucial process in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Maintaining product integrity is key. Mainly used for preservation of biologicals and drug formulation among many other things.

Drawing on its expertise in the field of water treatment and heat sterilisation. Sofinn has through Pharmtec SA developed a new technology (patented) for effluent decontamination without pumps and heat exchangers, meeting BSL requirements for levels 1, 2, 3, and 4 with superior resistance to clogging.

The transferring of biopharmaceutical products, such as vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, or gene therapies, from bulk containers into their final dosage forms, which are typically vials, syringes, or other delivery systems is highly regulated and demands precision and sterility to ensure the quality and safety of the final product.

Sofinn provides service at all stages in the lifetime of the equipment, keeping the equipment in good working order and prolonging the lifetime of the installations. Carried out by our high quality, well-trained professionals with experience from the pharmaceutical industry.
