It is written to assist the end-user in validation of predetermined specifications. The
protocol begins with planning the site for the piece of equipment and therefore is of value
prior to receipt of product.
The use of this document does not replace the need for Vacuum Drying oven DP63C User's
‘Manual. information with in the User’s Manual is required to complete this 10/0@ Protocol.
If the manual has been misplaced, copies can be obtained from the manufacturer or down-
loaded from their website, www.yamato-net.co,jp.
Responsibilities
End-User ~ The ultimate user or otherwise appointed personnel in the lab is responsible
to ensure the Drying oven is installed and operating properly. This document can assist in
that validation, This document cannot however anticipate every application or unique
situation encountered with the installation and operation. It is therefore essential that
users, lab managers and safety officers work together to broaden the scope of this
document through careful forethought.
End-User Employer ~ The employer is responsible for supporting the validation through
adequate resources and training. The organization shall also ensure the validation
process has been fully carried out prior to applying the Vacuum Drying oven. Records
should be stored in a safe, easily retrievable location. The location of the equipment and
required validation should be included in the company’s quality system.
Manufacturer - Yamato Scientific Co., Ltd, certified ISO-9001, Is responsible to fully test
each Vacuum Drying oven prior to shipment. The manufacturer must retain these records.
Yamato Scientific staff of Product Service Representatives and Product Specialists can assist
with information on the purchase, delivery and installation.

Performance Qualification
Once the Drying oven has been checked for proper installation and basic operation, it may
be decided to validate its performance. Yamato Scientific Co., Ltd can not recommend
specific procedures to do this. The performance validation should be designed to meet the
specifications and accuracy required of the application,
In general this requires establishing acceptance criteria, making several runs and testing
the results with calibrated equipment and qualified personnel.
