The International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) has announced the release of its latest guide, ISPE Good Practice Guide: HVAC & Process Equipment Air Filters.

This guide provides readers with a better understanding of current technologies and their application as it relates to current regulations and regulatory guidance, as well as the principles and objectives of filter testing both as conducted during manufacturing and after installation.

The guide is intended to be used as a supplement to the ISPE Good Practice Guide: Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) and acts as a detailed reference on the selection, application, specification, testing, and operation and maintenance of filters in the pharmaceutical industry as used for:

  • HVAC systems
