EUROTHERM FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS

Why BMS/EMS?

“Where environmental conditions could reasonably beexpected to have an adverse effect on product quality, themanufacturer shall establish and maintain procedures toadequately control these environmental conditions.Environmental control system(s) shall be periodicallyinspected to verify that the system, including necessaryequipment, is adequate and functioning properly. Theseactivities shall be documented and reviewed.” FDA 21 CFRPart 820.70 Production and Process Controls, section c.

Control and monitoring of storage and productionenvironments has become an important issue within thePharmaceutical Industry. The FDA, EMEA and other regulatorybodies require accurate measurement and storage of roomparameters and, if the storage medium is electronic, themethods used must comply with 21 CFR Part 11.

The FDA also states in its 21 CFR part 203.32 that:“Manufacturers; authorised distributors of record and theirrepresentatives shall store and handle all drug samples underconditions that will maintain their stability, integrity andeffectiveness and ensure that the drug samples are free ofcontamination, deterioration, and adulteration.”

Other FDA rules related to environmental control andmonitoring include:

■ 211.42: Design and construction features (section 10)

■ 211.46: Ventilation, air filtration, air heating and cooling

■ 211.142: Warehousing procedures (section b)

■ 820.70: Production and process controls

ControlThe purpose of this component is to provide the control ofthe necessary parameters for each individual room/area.

It offers standard control functionality, e.g. PID loops, toaccurately control the various environmental conditions ofthe room.

It also provides the functionality required to control devicessuch as pumps, motors and valves, e.g. start/stop withnecessary interlocks. Operation can be configured to beautomatic, semi-automatic, manual or any combination ofthese.

Individual rooms/areas may be operated in different modes;the selecting of which is access controlled by authorisedusers:

■ Idle: Option for turning off the control of the criticalparameters

■ In operation: Automatic control of critical parameters■ Maintenance: Automatic and Manual control of critical

parameters. This mode is also used for calibration ofsensors.

BMS offer the facility for adjusting control parameters (e.g.setpoints, alarm limits, tolerances, time delays) in order toachieve the desired condition in each room. This feature isonly available to users with the appropriate accesspermissions. The system provides a full audit trail of thesechanges including electronic signatures.

Data LoggingData logging is a key requirement for BMS/EMS systems. 21CFR Part 11 requires that logged data will be tamper proofand will include critical environmental parameters(temperature, humidity, pressure, particulate sizes, etc), withaudit trails including:

■ Accurate time and date stamps

■ Alarms and events

■ User actions and details (e.g. setpoint changes)

■ User notes

■ Electronic Signatures

■ Login/Logout

Eurotherm’s BMS/EMS systems log plant data to tamperproof files and SQL relational databases. Data logging can beoffered as:

■ Local logging (Tamper proof file)

■ Central logging (SQL database)

■ Local and central logging (Tamper proof files and SQLdatabase)

The availability of logged data can be significantly increasedby the local and central logging option. This allows datacollection in multiple devices to further protect vital plantdata.

Typically a BMS/EMS system comprises of a number ofdistributed units where each unit has its own internal clock.Time synchronisation is included to ensure accurate time anddate stamps, as required by 21 CFR Part 11, to a known clocksource.

The BMS/EMS system offers provisions for electronicallycopying data for archive and export facility to commonpackages (e.g. Excel, Word, PDF, etc.) for viewing of securerecords in human readable format. Other features of thesystem include:

■ Power and network recovery automatic procedures

■ FTP server to put the data on a central server

■ Scheduled transfers

The system can be configured to provide logging fornon-critical parameters including:

■ System events

■ Equipment failure

■ Equipment performance and maintenance

■ Energy usage

Data Logging and Audit Trail Designed to Satisfy 21 CFR Part 11

Alarms and Events ReportingAn important feature of the BMS/EMS system is its Alarmsand Events functionality. All alarms and events are timestamped and logged for long term retention and validationto 21 CFR Part 11. Individual plant data can be configured tohave one or a combination of the following alarms:

■ Absolute alarms■ Deviation alarms■ Rate of Change alarms■ Delayed alarms■ Excursion alarms

The system can be configured to provide other alarmsincluding;

■ Sensor break■ Equipment failures■ Network failure■ Maintenance and calibration alarm

Alarms can be configured as critical, non-critical or as anevent. Critical alarms will require manual acknowledgementand non-critical will be auto-acknowledged. Alarm selectionand setpoint settings are available to the users with theappropriate access level and critical alarms can beconfigured to require an Electronic Signature for changes.Alarm acknowledgement and all changes to alarm settingsare automatically logged as required by 21 CFR part 11.

All alarms and events are reported through local, central,and remote HMI panels. They are displayed in the AlarmSummary and Alarm History pages which provide a sortfacility for the information. Alarms can be grouped by theircriticality and function to ensure individual alarms can bequickly accessed.

Other features of the BMS/EMS alarm system include:

■ Audible alarm notification

■ Notification of alarm conditions to designated users ona designated telephone number

Maintenance and CalibrationMaintenance is an essential part of any BMS/EMS system.Maintenance information on various elements of the system(e.g. last calibration date, calibration due date, lastmaintenance date, maintenance due date) is shown onmultiple displays throughout the system. The system canprovide warnings if calibration/maintenance dates forindividual equipment are approaching and/or exceeded.

Access permission can be given to individual users to selectmaintenance modes for the following:

■ Sensors

■ Equipment (e.g. pumps, motors, valves)

Maintenance mode can also be selected for a given area e.g.a room or a zone of the plant.

While in maintenance mode the individual equipment orarea will be clearly identified on the display using colour andtext. The system can be set to suppress alarms and stoplogging parameters for associated equipment at this time.Selection and the de-selection of the maintenance mode willbe logged as an event in the audit trail.

Easy to use calibration tools are included in the system foruse during maintenance mode. Selection and de-selection ofthe calibration mode is logged in the audit trail.

Validation BMS/EMSA key requirement for BMS/EMS solutions is validation.Where environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, humidity,differential pressure, air flow, sterility, containment) have adirect impact on product purity, safety, quality or efficacythey need to be monitored against predetermined limits andlogged. In this case the BMS/EMS system used for collectingand logging the data needs to be validated. According toISPE guidelines, it is good practice to monitor theperformance of equipment such as fans, coil and controlcomponents, but it is not a regulatory requirement.

Documentation Validation documentation needs to be provided through thelife cycle of the BMS/EMS system. Eurotherm can offer arange of documentation services following GAMP guidelinesand in accordance with customer requirements:

– the mean kinetic temperature in K

– the heat of activation, 83.144kJ.mole–1

– the daily average temperature (K) day 1

– the daily average temperature (K) day n– the total days in the calculation

– the universal gas constant, 8.3144x10-3kj.mole–1 .k–1

Mean Kinetic Temperature (MKT) CalculationMeasurement and recording of temperatures is vital to thestorage of perishable goods, but there is more than one wayto record an average.

The ICH defines the mean kinetic temperature as being“A single derived temperature that, if maintained over adefined period of time, affords the same thermal challengeto a drug substance or drug product as would be experiencedover a range of both higher and lower temperatures for anequivalent defined period”.

MKT expresses the cumulative thermal stress experienced bya product at varying temperatures during storage anddistribution. It differs from other means (such as a simplenumerical average or arithmetic mean) in that highertemperatures are given greater weight in computing theaverage, recognising the accelerated rate of thermaldegradation of materials at higher temperatures.

The mean kinetic temperature is calculated as being:

There are a number of interpretations of how thiscalculation is achieved using real samples:

■ All sample values fed into formula

■ Maximum/minimum samples fed into formula separately(recommended by the FDA)

■ Arithmetic mean of maximum and minimum fed intoformula (recommended in the US Pharmacopeia and bythe UK MCA)

Eurotherm minimises the implementation and operationcost of providing MKT data by making all of the abovemethods as integral part of our solution with:

■ A choice of stability testing period (hourly / daily /weekly)

■ A choice of sampling frequency (from 1 minute to 1hour)

■ Option to remove individual probes from the calculation(e.g. during a calibration process)

■ Corrective action in case stability is out of specification

■ Secure and low cost custom reporting
