Dedicated - Non-Dedicated Manufacturing Equipment


Slide1

1.Dedicated equipment is used solely for the production of a single product or product line.
Concerns over cross-contamination with other products are markedly reduced.

2.Dedicated equipment must be clearly identified with the restrictions of use in order to prevent potential
errors during cleaning and preparation.

3.Where the same piece of equipment is utilized for a range of product formulations, (i.e., non dedicated
equipment), the prevention of cross-contamination between products becomes the
main objective in the cleaning validation effort.

4.Clearly, cleaning non-dedicated equipment represents a more significant obstacle to overcome.
