The(IQ) Installation Qualification Protocol verifies the proper installation and configuration of a System. This can include ensuring that the necessary files have been loaded, the equipment has been installed, the necessary procedures have been approved, and the appropriate personnel have been trained.
Installation qualification Procedure
The testing, including running testing, demonstrates that an individual piece of equipment is mechanically complete and safe to operate. The validation of readiness of equipment and controls for equipment start. Includes mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, and controls.Â
IQ tests are performed for the tagged item and do not include adjacent tagged items. Connected pipe, duct, and both power and control circuits must be successfully tested before IQ tests are conducted for the tagged equipment.
IQ generally occurs in three phases:
IQ1:
Visual conformance to Process Description, P&ID's, General
Arrangement drawings, equipment specifications and layout drawings.
Review the observations and suggested actions, if any, in the EQ report.
Visual conformance to a good standard of installation, correct support of
cabling and pipes, absence of dead legs, etc.
Verification that the Plant can be utilized as planned, installation is
tidy and organized and installation is hygienic.
Mechanical checks of tagged equipment (pipe connections, electrical
terminations, anchor bolts tight, etc.)Cold loop testing
The direction of rotation checks
Plant electrical safety audit
Plant hygienic installation audit
IQ2
Running tests
Hot loop testing
SAT (automation hardware integration tests)
Water flush, leak testing, and hydro testing
IQ3
Tests described in IQ1 and IQ2 for the equipment
that cannot be installed until other installations have been completed and
tested (e.g. mass flow meters, control valves, etc.)
If a fault is detected, it must be rectified before proceeding. Any change must be recorded.
Release of equipment
When all critical instrumentation/parameters have been checked and considered to be satisfactory, it is the responsibility of the commissioning team to complete form No. stating that the equipment has passed all IQ requirements.
Documentation
The original report will be retained by the Document Controller / Validation
