Description
Purpose of this guide:
- is to identify and define design features and typical industry practices
- to note design elements which must be incorporated within Pure Water System (PWS) and Water-for-Injection (WFI).
- provides a logical checklist for a WFI system. Any re-work or rectification of design and construction faults in these systems is a costly and time-consuming process, which usually has a severe impact on production and supply chain.
- it is essential to review each activity critically on an ongoing basis to insure that the best option and no errors are built into the system.
- The guideline can also used as a gap analysis for existing WFI system
