Continuous motion hot air depyrogenation tunnel with Class 100 Grade A laminar flow and dynamic automatic pressure balancing between cleanroom zones.
Up to 300 containers/minute (2 mL to 50 mL vials and ampoules)
The DST-300 Continuous Depyrogenation Tunnel is designed to sterilize and depyrogenate pharmaceutical glass containers entering aseptic fill-finish suites. Operating at temperatures up to 350°C, the tunnel features pre-heating, hot-air sterilization, and cooling zones under Class 100 laminar flow.

All configurations
Confirms that the DST-300 design, as specified, meets the user requirement specification before manufacture begins.
GMP configurations
Documents that the machine is installed to drawing, connected to the specified utilities and calibrated.
GMP configurations
Challenges the machine across its operating ranges, alarms and interlocks to show it performs as specified.
Customer-executed; product-specific acceptance criteria
Executed by the customer with our support: endotoxin challenge and heat penetration studies over three consecutive qualified cycles.
All configurations; customer witnessing optional
Witnessed at our works before dispatch, so defects are corrected where the parts, tools and engineers are.
All configurations
Repeats the critical FAT checks at the customer site after installation and utility connection.
