GMP-Compliant by Design

Features a cleanable design with FDA-compliant materials, individually leak-tested housing (ISO 10648-2), and HEPA filter integrity test ports to meet stringent GMP regulatory requirements

Uncompromised Safety

Offers optional OEB 5 containment for handling highly potent APIs (OEL>0.9 microg/m³) and is designed for explosion protection in compliance with ATEX and NFPA 654 standards

Plug & Play Simplicity

Fully electric system with an integrated fan and intuitive HMI, ready for operation in under 5 minutes without the need for compressed air

Modular & Configurable

Available in three distinct lines (BaseLine, SafeLine, PureLine) with a wide range of options to perfectly match your application's specific containment and compliance needs

Are You Aware of the Risks in Your Process?

Pharmaceutical manufacturers face substantial risks when using standard industrial vacuum cleaners as dust collectors. These can lead to FDA warning letters, multi-million dollar fines, production losses, and damage to your company's reputation. The ECH-One was engineered from the ground up to address these critical challenges directly.

Solving the Core Challenges of Pharmaceutical Dust Extraction

Eliminate GMP & Cross-Contamination Risks

Industrial vacuum cleaners present serious compliance gaps. Their HEPA filters often cannot be tested in-situ, and housing tightness is not confirmed. This has been cited in FDA Warning Letters in the past, so pharmaceutical companies should protect for the future. The ECH-One provides a:

Validation & Liability Shield with:

  • A cleanable design using GMP & FDA compliant materials.
  • Individually leak-tested housing as per ISO 10648-2.
  • Triple-stage filtration with double HEPA safety filters.
  • Built-in filter integrity test ports (ISO 16170) for routine validation.

Ensure Uncompromised Personnel Safety

Standard industrial vacuum cleaner systems create a false sense of safety, with undetected leaks in gaskets and housings potentially exposing operators to hazardous APIsThe ECH-One is built for:

Uncompromised Safety with:

  • Available high-containment solutions for OEB3, OEB 4 and OEB 5 applications

  • Safe-change filter and dust bin procedures to minimize exposure risk.

  • Filter doors used as a tray, for a safer and more ergonomic filter change.
  • Explosion protection for combustible dusts (MIE > 3 mJ) compliant with ATEX and NFPA standards.

Protect Your Product Yield & Formulation

High-pressure blowers without proper regulation can cause excessive loss of expensive product to the exhaust. Worse, this can lead to the selective loss of specific ingredients, impacting the final formulation's integrity. The ECH-One ensures

Stable Process Conditions through:

  • An integrated fan with VFD and PID control for stable pressure conditions.
  • An optional constant airflow regulation system for the most stable production conditions.
  • Triple-stage filtration including a primary cleanable filter with ROTATRONIC-L online cleaning technology to maintain performance.

Advanced Options & Connectivity

Further enhance your ECH-One with powerful options for ultimate safety, performance, and integration.

High Containment (OEB4 & OEB5)

For uncompromised safety with toxic APIs, this option includes an individually leak-tested housing and bags (ISO 10648-2, Class 3), a special tightness safe-change bag, a 15 L continuous liner, and a filter tightness tray for increased containment during filter change.

Additional Safety Filtration

For maximum air return reliability, this adds a third H14 filter stage, filter-in-place detection for all three filter stages, and filter sealing test ports on all filters.

Constant Air Flow Regulation

Ensures the most stable production conditions with integrated air flow measuring equipment, sensors, and additional software functions.

Seamless Integration

Equipped with Siemens control components and a proprietary ROTATRONIC HMI. Go beyond hardwired I/O with full PROFINET or OPC UA connectivity for complete communication with your process equipment or BMS.
