\n1. Use EHEDG- or GMP-certified components.<\/strong>
\nOnly these components have been tested for hygiene.<\/p>\n
\nDuring CIP, everything must flow smoothly. Dead spots won’t be cleaned.<\/p>\n
\nA simple design without branches minimizes the risk of contamination.
\nIf a branch is necessary, ensure it is no larger than 1.5 times the diameter. This allows the CIP flow to do its job.<\/p>\n
\nThe CIP flow needs speed to clean. But also keep an eye on the pressure drop in the narrower pipes!<\/p>\n
\nWhere it is not dry, the risk of recontamination is high.<\/p>\n
\nThese guidelines describe the requirements for welds in the pharmaceutical and food industries.<\/p>\n
\nVisually clean \u00eds not clean. Therefore, validate with swaps and analyze the drain water.<\/p>\n
