Installing dehumidifiers in the pharmaceutical industry requires careful planning to ensure optimal humidity control, regulatory compliance, and product safety.
Identify the required humidity levels (usually 30-50% RH) based on pharmaceutical regulations (e.g., FDA, GMP).
Determine the size and capacity of the dehumidifier needed based on room dimensions and moisture load.
Consider the type of pharmaceuticals stored or manufactured, as some require stricter humidity control.
Desiccant Dehumidifiers: Best for low-temperature and low-humidity environments.
Refrigerant Dehumidifiers: Suitable for warmer areas with moderate humidity.
HVAC-Integrated Dehumidifiers: Ideal for large-scale facilities with existing air systems. It is recommended to use a pharmaceutical dehumidifier that can be connected with HVAC system.
Install near moisture sources (e.g., production lines, storage areas, or packaging zones).
Ensure proper air circulation to avoid humidity pockets.
Keep units away from direct heat sources to optimize efficiency.
Some dehumidifiers need to be integrated into the HVAC system for centralized control. PREAIR industrial ceiling dehumidifiers can be connected to the HVAC system, which can save space and work more efficient than other stand along machines.
Use duct work to distribute dry air evenly across the facility.
Install humidity sensors for real-time monitoring and automated adjustments.
Ensure proper drainage connections to remove collected water.
Use pumps or gravity drains to prevent water buildup.
Regularly check for clogs or leaks to maintain efficiency.
Set the desired humidity levels on the control panel.
Run tests to ensure even dehumidification across the facility.
Use hygrometers to monitor humidity levels at different points.
Clean filters periodically to prevent airflow blockages.
Inspect and replace desiccant or refrigerant components as needed.
Ensure continuous operation with backup systems to prevent downtime.
