FUNCTION MODULES ANALYSIS CONTROL MODULE ARCHITECTURE MODULE DESCRIPTION PROCESS LEVEL CRYO.TAS has been developed specifically as a scalable system. One of the most important parts within the function modules is the analysis module. Analysis devices with connection to superordinate analysis control (PLC). Test gases with residual pressure monitoring. Gas connection modules for automatic gas direction switching with quick-flushing device. This module contains a comprehensive object library of common analysis devices and functions. All devices are administrated from the graphical user interface (GUI) of the system. The specification of individual user roles permits differentiation of user rights for every individual device. For example, the device group for medical gases can be excluded from normal operation and only released to qualified experts. Comprehensive, freely parameterizable functions permit a variety of different evaluations of the analysis system. The fully automated monitoring and documentation of all results ensure maximum process safety in quality control. All integrated functions meet all requirements of GMP and GAMP and are thus the basis for their system validation. CONTROL LEVEL Analysis control (PLC) with comprehensive function component libraries for many different test equipment types. Routing of all required test and action orders between the management and process levels. MANAGEMENT LEVEL Placement of measuring and calibration orders. Recording and evaluation of all incoming data and archiving them.

EXCERPT FROM THE ANALYSIS OPERATING LEVEL DESCRIPTION The operating level offers comprehensive, role-related device operations: DEVICE CLASSES Analysis devices Test gases Product sources (storage tanks) Measuring points There are different registers for assignments or function definitions for every object in a device class. TABS Parameters: Specification of device parameters such as flushing times, measuring times, measuring ranges and device units Receipt of the measuring results and other data from a device Messages: Alarms and events of a device Calibration results: History of all validations and adjustments of a device Test gas bottles: Assignment of the present test gases to an analysis device OPERATING ELEMENTS Start calibration Manual request for a calibration cycle Reset device Deletion of all pending orders for a device Data:
ANALYSIS FUNCTIONS FUNCTIONS TEST EQUIPMENT MONITORING Free time- and date-controlled definition of orders. You can choose between the following functions: Validation Cyclic inspection of the devices with test gases. If the deviation exceeds the specified threshold, the test equipment is locked for use. Adjustment Automatic adjustment after validation runs is possible. Then further validation is performed and if the thresholds are complied with, the test equipment is automatically released for use again. Alternatively, cyclic adjustment is available as well. TEST GAS MONITORING All test gases used (zero gases, area gas- es, carrier gases and other service gases) are mapped in the system with their entire specification. If, for example, a test gas has exceeded its expiration date, all analysis devices using this test gas are locked. As a consequence of device locking, all products that need this analysis device in their specification also are no longer available. QUALITY MONITORING STORAGE TANKS Analysis points of storage tanks, pipelines or other product sources are cyclically monitored. The periods can be chosen freely. All product specifications assigned to the product source are inspected during monitoring. Non-compliant products are automatically locked and will no longer be available for loading. For special products, such as medical gases, the cyclic monitoring can also be replaced by execution of batch analyses. Af-
ter successful inspection of such products, a batch number is generated and a batch certificate is created. This may be sent to authorized offices for further release. EVALUATION OF ANALYSIS RESULTS The system offers various evaluation options for evaluation of the analysis results : All settings can be made individually per analysis point in any combination. Furthermore, you can specify different evaluation types for standard products and medical products. Evaluation with error analysis The overall error of a measuring circuit is considered for evaluation of the measured results, and the product specifications to be reviewed are increased by this error. Thus, you as the operator can be certain to comply with a product specification at all times. The function can be activated or deactivated individuality for every analysis point. A valid analysis (standard evaluation) If this evaluation type is activated for an analysis measuring point, only one valid measuring cycle is required for product inspection at a product measurement. N out of M valid analyses In this analysis type, N successful measurements out of M measuring attempts are required for positive evaluation of a product analysis. One followed by N One invalid analysis attempt requires N valid subsequent attempts. Parameter set of an analysis point
