4.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:
4.01 FLUID BED DRYER:
The Principle of a Fluid Bed Dryer is to create fluidal turbulence in a granulated or Powdery wet product by means of hot air ( or dehumidified air ) flowing in an upward Direction & to dry the same to the final required degree in a careful manner.
SUITABILITY:
In a Fluid Bed Dryer, the wet material is transposed to a fluidized state by a hot air stream that surrounds the material completely & therefore the heat transfer rate achieved is very high & the temperature distribution throughout the product is uniform. Due to this, drying time is considerably reduced & thus high production rates are achieved in comparison to other dryers. As the product is in close contact with hot Air at low temperatures & also for a short duration, the physical & chemical properties of the product are generally not affected & therefore the dryer can effectively be used for heat-sensitive products. Due to the movement of the product during drying, lump formation, case hardening, etc., are minimized. The Fluid Bed Dryers are not suitable for drying of liquids or pasty material.
For further Details Refer to Chapter “INTRODUCTION & GENERAL DESCRIPTION” given in operating manuals.
Fluid Bed Dryer is upgradable to top spray Fluid Bed Processor by modification in main body and provision of accessories viz.
a) Spray Nozzle
b) Peristaltic Pump
c) Silicon Tubes
d) Liquid storage tank
e) Software changes in PLC
4.02 LOADING & UNLOADING OF MATERIAL:
The material should be transferred to the product bowl either manually or mechanically. Material unloading can be done by tilting the bowl and by manual operation. The Unloading may be done by means of Pn. Conveying system or mechanical tippers.
5.0 DESIGN BASE & ASSUMPTIONS:
The Fluid Bed Dryer and its subassemblies design will be based on technical requirements, cGMP requirements, performance requirements & control logic mentioned by the client in their purchase order.
The manufacturer on the basis of the technical know-how will work out the complete specification of all the components required for the Fluid Bed Dryer.
6.0 VARIATIONS:
If there are any variations sought by the client after approval of Drawings, Documents, & Design qualifications, in the equipment from the original design then they shall be incorporated by the manufacturer in the equipment drawings after receiving written consent from the client.
This will form the basis for preparing the “As Built” drawings.
