Common Sense Thoughts . .


.
When designing equipment:
„ Keep it simple
„ Less is better
„ Strive for minimum ‘parts’
„ All p
parts and assemblies accessible
„ Role play the ‘sanitation employee’

“The difficult thing about engineering great


designs is to make them simple.”

An Engineer’s Perspective
Compounding Opportunities

The original
design may have
been correct. As
equipment ages
it tends
t d tot collect

a “compounded

growth niches..
AMI Equipment Design Task Force

10 Principles of Sanitary Design

1. Cleanable to a Microbiological Level


Food equipment must be constructed and be maintainable to ensure
that the equipment can be effectively and efficiently cleaned and
sanitized over the life of the equipment. The removal of all food
materials is critical. This means preventing bacterial ingress, survival,
growth and reproduction. This includes product and non-product
contact surfaces of the equipment.
2. Made of Compatible Materials
Construction materials used for equipment must be completely
compatible with the product, environment, cleaning and sanitizing
chemicals, and the methods of cleaning and sanitation. Equipment
materials of construction must be inert, corrosion resistant,
nonporous, and nonabsorbent.
3. Accessible for Inspection, Maintenance, Cleaning and Sanitation
All parts of the equipment shall be readily accessible for inspection,
maintenance cleaning,
maintenance, cleaning and/or sanitation.
sanitation Accessibility should be
easily accomplished by an individual without tools. Disassembly and
assembly should be facilitated by the equipment design to optimize
sanitary conditions.

Hollow areas of equipment (e.g., frames, rollers) must be eliminated where
possible or permanently sealed (caulking not acceptable). Bolts, studs,
mounting plates, brackets, junction boxes, nameplates, end caps,
sleeves and other such items must be continuously welded to the
sleeves,
surface of the equipment and not attached via drilled and tapped holes
6. No Niches
All parts of the equipment shall be free of niches such as pits, cracks,
corrosion recesses,
corrosion, recesses open seams
seams, gaps
gaps, lap seams
seams, protruding ledges
ledges,
inside threads, bolt rivets and dead ends. All welds must be continuous

During normal operations, the equipment must perform so it does not
contribute to unsanitary conditions or the harborage and growth of
bacteria

product, water, or product liquid does not penetrate into, or
accumulate in or on the enclosure and interface. The physical
design of the enclosures should be sloped or pitched to avoid
use as a storage area.
9. Hygienic Compatibility with Other Plant Systems
Design of equipment must ensure hygienic compatibility with
other equipment and systems,

10. Validate Cleaning and Sanitizing Protocols
The procedures prescribed for cleaning and sanitation must be clearly
written,, designed

recommended for cleaning and sanitation must be compatible with the
equipment, as well as compatible with the manufacturing environment.
