10 simple tips to

improve containment

effectiveness

AT SOLO CONTAINMENT WE

BELIEVE THAT

HIGH CONTAINMENT IS

POSSIBLE

WITH LOW PRICES

TIP 1: THINK NEGATIVE

Operate your Glove-Bags at NEGATIVE pressure:

Running you glove bags or flexible

isolators at negative pressure

makes a lot of sense:

Any tear ,damage or leak that

occurs during use will let air feed in

and not API escape out.

Negative Pressure maximises

operator safety:

TIP 2 : STRONG ATTACHMENTS At Solo Containment we never use bungee cord to support our glove bags.

At Solo Containment we never use ChemTape to anchor glove bags

Solo offer a number of proven – reliable gas

tight attachment systems that bond the glove

bag to the machine or base tray and work

perfectly first time, next time and every time

Out press stud tabs – make envelope

change out easy and quick.

TIP 3 : BREATHE EASY

At Solo Containment we have a

system of welding HEPA filters to the

isolator envelope:

This reduces cost , eliminates leak

paths and ensures all API

contamination stays inside the flexible

enclosure.

We can provide our isolators with

DOP injection and scanning sleeves

so you can validate safe filtration

standards at your facility.

Solo also offer:

• Push/Push safe change HEPA systems

• Screw mount transfer filters

• P3 Breather filters for short life cycle envelopes

TIP 4 : MONITOR PERFORMANCE At Solo we prefer to add instrumentation on our

flexible isolators:

If you can see the negative pressure is in the

“Safe Operating Zone”

You know Solo’s design is taking care of operator

safety

Mistakes happen: A simple pressure gauge lets

every one know all the loading zippers are

closed.

We never compromise on Operator Safety

TIP 5: GET THE CORRECT GLOVE: At Solo Containment – we offer the right spec glove for the Risk & Hazard:

Low cost cleanroom gloves for OEB 1 ,2 and 3 compounds

Double dipped Cytotoxic compatible for OEB 4 & 5

And…. Tosoh (formerly Hypalon gloves) for total impervious safety

We never compromise

on containment safety

Solo’s “Push/Push” safe change glove

system

TIP 6: ONE WAY STREET OPERATION

At Solo we design our

flexible isolators so clean

items enter via the load

airlock.

Contaminated items are

wiped down and exit

through our compact Bag-

Out port.

We have great crimping

technology

We have great training

programmes

We never compromise

safety

TIP 7: KEEP UP WITH THE

LATEST FILMS:

TIP 8 : OPERATOR TRAINING:

a great containment device is only

part of the fix:

So we offer operator training

support to ensure that good IH

practice gets the highest

performance levels from your

Solo Containment Isolator
