What Has Not Changed?• Syringes

– 1 ml, 10 ml, 25 ml

• Flow rate settings– 10 – 100 ml

• Sensors – (MC05 is added)

• Sampling Probes– (added short-small bore probe)

• Instrument size / shape– Design allows the laminar flow cabinet to act

upon the sample– 50%+ of instruments are placed in laminar

flow cabinets.

Some SOP’s reference flow rates, sensor models, syringes and probes

Instrument View

New Sampling Probe

• 3 probes available– 2 probes have not

changed (1.2 ml tare, 0.172 ml tare volume)

– New small / short probe has 0.09 ml tare volume

– Enables the use of 1 ml of product for full suite of compendial tests

Small Vial Clamp• Small Vial Clamp

– Can be removed– Can be added in the field or ordered

directly

• Use– Use 1 hand to compress lever arms– Use other hand to place sample in

central location– Decompress hand– Clamp auto-centers and holds sample

container.

• Removal– Half nut installation– Standard flat head screw driver required

(not included)

Docking Module• Docking Module

– Enables removal/disabling of the stir bar mechanism

– Enables field installation of small vial clamp outside of the laminar flow cabinet

• No instrument move forcing a revalidation

• Future developments to expand 9703 applications

– Auto-sampler docking module in development

Sampling Safety Switch• Sampling safety switch

– Ensures the sampling probe does not crash (and bend or break) into the docking module

– Ensures the probe does crash and/or tip the sample container

• This addresses #1 problem revealed during the face-to-face interviews

Don’t underestimate the importance of this feature during demo

VOC revealed 12% of respondents are seeking particles down to 0.5 um

MC05 Sensor

9703+ MC05– Requires unique sensor mounting

– Field retro-fit kits available

PharmSpec– Unique calibration curves must be entered for extinction and scatter– PHA available for both extinction and scatter channels

Back Panel View – New Items• HRLD cable connector

– Ensures stable sensor connection during sampling

• USB connection• Light extinction and light

scattering connections– Utilized for calibration of either

HRLD or MC05 sensor– Utilized for on-site field trouble-

shooting of HRLD or MC05 sensor

• Power connection• Drain connection• 15-pin sensor connector

Front Panel User InterfaceChanged interface to separate flushing and syringe change out buttons, from stir speed and instrument probe position

• Flushing buttons– Forward flush (top button) – Back-flush (bottom button)

• Syringe Open/Close– Enables syringe change-out

• Stir Speed – RPM– Precision stir speed in rotations per

minute (RPM)– Visual indication that the instrument

is still powered

• Sampling probe position– Move probe upward– Move probe downward

• Set probe sampling position– Button used to set the pre-configured probe

test sampling position.

Best PracticesCustomer computer (major stumbling block)• Brand new computer• Clean Hard-drive• Recycle• Communication port problems Do you have IQ/OQ documents ready (ideally printed and bound)Brief the customer prior to visit

PharmSpec 3.0Many of the functions

have not changed– Procedural tests– Run Counter tests– IST tests– Procedure Builder – Historical reporting– Activity Log– Data Storage– Hardware settings

What’s New Con’t• Partial results are recorded for incomplete tests

• Automatic checks for procedure and software updates can be scheduled by the user

• Batch printing and exporting of reports

• Alarms for invalid configuration, calibration due, bubbles detected, concentration limit exceeded, sample probe needs recalibration, sensor blocked and sensor contaminated

• Number of reviewer signature lines on printed reports is set by the user

• Company logo can be added to reports by the user

• FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirement features can be disabled using a license key (logins, user administration, review and approvals of tests, and audit trails)

PharmSpec Requirements*The PC requirements shown are the minimum requirements supported.

*The user may benefit by using a faster processor and/or additional memory.

*Windows Vista and Windows 7 users may have higher requirements.

Bubble Detection Alarm

1) Clear description of alarm

2) Recommended actions

3) Potential cause and where to go for help

Instrument Install GuidanceConnect the drain lineThe sample waste from the instrument must be collected in a compatiblewaste container. Monitor the liquid level in the waste container to prevent overflow. Dispose of waste in accordance with local, state and national environmental regulations.

Install the small-vial clampThe optional small-vial clamp connects to the docking module with 2 screws.

Install or remove the docking moduleDocking modules are available for single or multiple-container sampling

Connect the power cordA power supply unit is used to supply power to the instrument

Install Guidance con’tRemove the magnetic stirrerThe magnetic stirrer in the docking module can be removed if

necessary

1. Pull the tab on the docking module away from the instrument to remove the module.

2. Remove the four screws on the bottom plate of the module. Separate the bottom plate from the module enclosure.

3. Pull to remove the stirrer plug from the circuit board.4. Remove the two holding screws from the stirrer motor

flange and remove the magnetic stirrer assembly.5. Put the bottom plate on the module enclosure and install

the four screws.

User interface:The buttons on the front panel allow the user to operate the

syringe, sample probe and stirrer.

IQ/OQ -Validation Support Documentation

Purpose of the Tests The validation project is a set of tests that are used to make sure that the computer-related

system is operating to the specifications that have been identified. Before a full operational qualification (OQ) is done, an installation qualification (IQ) is done.

• On-site IQ/OQ service is available.• IQ/OQ documentation offered to customers as an option

Customer Upgrade - Awareness• We are unable to support PharmSpec 1.X historical database report viewing

– This can be done in PharmSpec versions 1.X and 2.X but not 3.X– PharmSpec 1.X did not migrate to Windows XP, which is the minimum operating system

for PharmSpec 3.0

• All current HRLD sensors in the field must be fitted with the new 9703+ cable when used with new instrument

– Due to speed and sensitivity enhancements, the old HRLD cabling is not optimized for the 9703+

– All new HRLD part #’s with new cable have been developed for quotes on 9703+– Retrofitting the new cable on an old sensor is an acceptable solution

• We no longer user PharmSpec application security, we utilize Windows security for login access

– Be sure to add your user’s to one of the PharmSpec User groups, clearly outlined in the operator manual
