Hello,

 

I'm doing a risk assessment and i'm blocked for some equipment and i don't know which kind of risk we can have for such situations:

 

  • Air conditioner in the production area
  • Ventilation system 
  • Compressed air

 

 

Could you please help me?

 

Thank you

I walked around with a smoke pen to check airflow near vents and equipment, which helped spot dead zones or areas where unfiltered air might be blowing onto product surfaces.

I ran into similar concerns before, especially with dust and potential oil carryover. We ended up mapping out all air contact points and took swab samples from several vent areas. To help evaluate the full picture and stay audit-ready, we worked with Emerson Pro Services, and their team helped point out risks we hadn’t even thought of, like overlooked maintenance gaps that could lead to contamination.
