Choosing the right flow control products for your pharmaceutical industry operations
When choosing the right flow control products for your pharmaceutical industry operations, several factors should be considered to ensure product quality, safety, and compliance with industry standards. Here are some key considerations:
Regulatory compliance
Ensure that the flow control products comply with relevant regulations such as GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice), FDA guidelines, and ISO standards. Look for products with necessary certifications that demonstrate compliance with pharmaceutical industry requirements.
Hygienic design
Opt for flow control products with hygienic designs tailored for pharmaceutical applications. Smooth surfaces, minimal crevices, and materials that are easy to clean are essential to prevent bacterial growth and contamination.
Material compatibility
Consider the temperature and pressure conditions of your chemical processes. Choose flow control products that can handle thermal cycling and pressure fluctuations typical in chemical processes without compromising performance or safety. Remember that elevated temperatures can force a valve into a higher pressure class due to the ASME or EN temperature and pressure envelope.
Flow rate control and pressure regulation
Choose products that offer precise control over flow rates to maintain consistent dosing and mixing. Accurate flow meters and control valves are essential for ensuring batch consistency and product quality. In addition, ensure that pressure regulators and control valves can maintain stable pressure levels to prevent process disruptions and ensure safety.

Common questions about flow control products for the pharmaceutical industry
Some of the most common types of valves used in pharmaceutical processes include hygienic and sanitary valves such as ball valves, butterfly valves, diaphragm valves, control valves, and pressure relief valves. These valves must be easy to clean, maintain, and sterilise to meet the strict requirements of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Material compatibility is crucial because pharmaceutical processes often involve reactive or sensitive media. Selecting corrosion-resistant, non-reactive materials like stainless steel ensures that the flow control products do not contaminate or alter the properties of the pharmaceutical substances, maintaining product safety and quality.
Flow control products like precision valves and flow meters ensure accurate and consistent control over flow rates, pressures, and temperatures. This precision is essential for maintaining batch consistency, which directly impacts the efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products.
Backflow preventers are essential for maintaining product integrity by ensuring that fluids or gases do not flow backward into critical points, like clean water supplies or sterile areas. They are vital for protecting against contamination, particularly in systems handling hazardous or sensitive materials.
Implementing a preventive maintenance schedule, conducting regular inspections, and using CIP (Clean-in-Place)/SIP (Sterilise-in-Place) processes to clean and sterilise components are key to maintaining flow control products. Proper training for maintenance staff and access to OEM parts and support are also crucial for extending equipment life and ensuring compliance.
