Delfin vacuum solutions for the pharmaceutical industry

Delfin vacuum solutions for the pharmaceutical industry

The production process in the pharmaceutical sector involves high standards of hygiene, safety and productivity to ensure a safe, compliant and effective end product.

Delfin has a deep insight about these requirements, which is why it has developed an innovative range of vacuum solutions that includes dust containment systems with varying degree of dangerousness (API and HPAPI) and different levels of operator exposure risk (OEB1 to OEB5).

The wide range includes mobile and stationary industrial vacuum cleaners and several pneumatic conveying solutions that seamlessly integrate with the production process, covering every vacuum-related need in the pharmaceutical industry, from the storage of raw materials to the packaging process of the finished product.

LOGISTICS AND STORAGE AREAS

In logistics and storage areas, maximum cleanliness should be ensured at all times. To make up for any accidental spillage of material, Delfin offers a wide choice of mobile industrial vacuum cleaners, which are very compact and have a high collection capacity (up to 100 litres), allowing you to vacuum and filter the most diverse types of powders and liquids. Delfin's extensive range also meets cleaning requirements in ATEX Z22 certified areas.

PRE-PRODUCTION AREAS

Pre-production areas often relate to the feeding of raw materials into the machinery by pouring and transfer. The raw material is often in powder form, hence it is necessary to prevent it from being dispersed in the environment resulting in a potential exposure risk for the operators. Delfin dust collectors are the perfect solution to this need. Featuring a very high air flow rate, they capture and collect suspended dust, thanks to the suction arm, which can be located directly at the point where suction is needed.

On the other hand, to totally contain the transfer of these materials into the machinery, Delfin offers pneumatic conveyors allowing the material to be handled and loaded into the production machinery, totally airtight, thanks to a closed system, avoiding any contact with the external environment.

PRODUCTION AREAS

Delfin is able to readily offer solutions to the several requirements of the production areas in the pharmaceutical industry: first and foremost, the safe dust containment during all stages of production, thanks to solutions that integrate seamlessly into the production process and are suitable for OEB environments. These solutions include pneumatic conveyors enabling the automation of raw materials loading and the conveying of finished products into the production machinery.

These areas often need to vacuum residual dust directly from processing machines during production cycles. Delfin offers ideal solutions to integrate into existing production lines, ensuring perfect maintenance with no machine downtime and no release of dust into the working environment.

Delfin's containment systems are the ideal solution for machinery such as tabletting machines, capsuling machines, blister machines, especially for highly toxic or carcinogenic raw materials. Safe filtration and powder collection systems, such as BIBO (Bag-in Bag-out), ensure total safety for of operators performing maintenance tasks on such machinery. Dust Containment vacuum cleaners are perfectly customisable to fit the specific needs of each industry working areas: thanks to the wide range of vacuum units, vacuum cleaners and filter separators, each customer can choose the solution that meets their safety and dust containment needs in the work environment.

CLEANROOM

The typical feature of cleanrooms is the purity of the air inside, which maintains a very low content of suspended micro-particles of powder.

Delfin's range of Labcontrol vacuum cleaners reduces the risk of contamination in these working areas, in full compliance with industry regulations, while maintaining the highest levels of hygiene. Specific tests have certified their compatibility for use in cleanrooms up to ISO4 level (according to ISO14644).

PACKAGING AREAS - END OF LINE

Once the production process is complete, the finished products are packaged to be officially available for the pharmaceutical and healthcare markets. During packaging processes of finished products, any waste and packaging scraps, as cardboard and plastic film, could become source of contamination for production and temporarily halt machine productivity. Delfin AS range industrial vacuum cleaners is the right solution to these needs: waste is collected and compacted in a nylon bag, which filters out any powder and allows for a quick and easy disposal. These machines can be easily integrated on packaging lines allowing direct suction on board of process machinery.

Delfin can offer specific solutions for specific requirements to ensure safety, innovation and performance to the pharmaceutical industry.
