ACCOUNTABILITY:

Engineering Head    

Quality Assurance Head

PROCEDURE:

Codification of Filter and Grill:

Engineering officer/Executive shall prepares a master list for different types of filters used in different type of equipments like Depositor machine, Pillow packing machine, Air handling unit, Reverse Laminar air flow, Laminar air flow unit, dynamic pass box in the plant in different area like Utility, Warehouse, Quality control and Production.

A unique code shall be allotted to each filter depending upon the type of filter, size of the filter, location of the filter.

Following procedure to be followed to allot codification for all filters to be fixed in the equipments.

UT/CCC/DDD/EE/FF-GG

Where the following are stands for;

UT- Stand for Utility.

CCC- Indicate the equipment short forms like AHU- Air Handling Unit, LAF- Laminar Air Flow unit, DPB- Dynamic Pass Box, And ACR- Air Compressor.

DDD- Indicate the equipment Number like 001, 002, 003……

EE- Indicate the Filter Type like PF-Pre filter, FF-Fine Filter, HF- HEPA Filter, CF-Cartridge Filter.

FF- Indicate the Quantity of filters like 01, 02, 03…..

GG -Replaced filter like if the filter replaced so many times 01, 02, 03….. And if the filter install first time then would be there 00.

Example: In the case of pre-filter of AHU in manufacturing area the filter serial number shall be

Assigned as UT/AHU/001/PF/01-00, if another pre-filter is installing in AHU then filter          I.D assigned as UT/AHU/001/PF/02-00.  

Example: In the case of any type of filter of AHU replace with new one then filter I.D Assigned as   UT/AHU/001/PF/01-01and for another filter I.D Assigned as UT/AHU/001/PF/02-01.

Example: In the case of fine-filter of AHU in manufacturing area the filter serial number shall be

Assigned as UT/AHU/001/FF/01-00.

Example: In the case of HEPA-filter of AHU in manufacturing area the filter serial number shall be

Assigned as UT/AHU/001/HF/01-00.

The following procedure to be followed for the Grills installed in the room supply and return riser filter.
