This process, also known as soft part change out (SPCO), normally includes parts like gaskets and diaphragms from weir style diaphragm valves, but can also include O-rings, bottom outlet valves, hoses, and single use equipment. Our team are the global experts in elastomer maintenance for the life science sector, and have physically installed and managed the maintenance of thousands of elastomers across the globe.
Elastomer Change Out (ECO) is the process of removing and replacing the static and dynamic seals that are used in pharmaceutical production environments.
Our experienced team will ensure that elastomer assets are installed right first time and continue to perform reliably for the full duration of their expected service life.
SCRI-IS has used this methodology to extend elastomer lifetimes for a number of clients:
- Client A – Global (18x sites) – 50 to 250% ECO interval increases
- Client B – 100 to 150% ECO interval increases
- Client C – 100% ECO interval increase
- Client D – 50 to 200% ECO interval increases
- Client E – 100% ECO interval increase
