INSPECTORS CHECKLIST

The dry helical lobe rotary compressors nonlubricated cylinder types of compressors are used for injecting of the fuel in gas turbines at the high pressure needed. The gas turbine application requires that the compressor be dry. This standard is primarily intended for compressors that are in special purpose application and covers the minimum requirements for dry helical lobe rotary compressors used for vacuum, pressure, or both in petroleum, chemical, and gas industry services. This edition also includes a new inspector s checklist and new schematics for general purpose and typical oil systems.

The protocol should specify what should be recorded directly into the CRF and what will also be recorded in the medical records. The CRF will contain all the pertinent data associated specifically with the clinical trial but some will be repeated in the medical records, for example, the protocol identification number, date of consent, date of commencement of the study, key baseline medical findings, visit dates, start and finish dates of the study drug/placebo or treatment, concurrent medication, adverse events and key efficacy and any unscheduled or scheduled actions or interventions (such as escape medication). Additional information obtained from biopsy reports, radiographs and similar documents will provide confirmation that the data in the CRF are recorded correctly. Monitors, QA auditors and inspectors need to see all the medical records available to the investigator. It is not appropriate to create copies of data from CRFs or checklists derived from medical records and claim that these are source documents. 

The inspection of low-pressure tanks is amply covered in API Standard 653 Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction, January 1991. [18] This short, practical booklet covers items such as inspector qualifications, concerns for tank bottom corrosion, and related topics. Appendix C of API 653 offers a four-page checklist for inspection of a tank while in service and seven pages of checklists for internal inspections. 

This chapter discusses what to expect during inspections, how inspectors approach their work, and how to manage the process of receiving an inspection. Specifically, inspections by the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (EDA) are explored. Preinspection questionnaires and inspection checklists used by the regulatory authorities are attached as appendices to this chapter. 

Some investigators and sponsors provide specific checklists for a clinical trial, which they claim are an alternative to the medical records. Information relating to medical history will be copied from the permanent records onto these checklists and most of the key parameters required to be recorded in the CRF will also be present on these checklists. However, monitors, QA auditors and inspectors need to see all the medical records available to the investigator. Some investigator sites, in particular those in outpatient departments, have no available medical records for individual subjects. The study subject may have not have a personal physician. In this situation, the subject may be the only person to provide any information about his/her medical history. 

The job of an inspector is to record field operations in sufficient detail so that a judgment can be made as to whether the project specs are being followed or violated. Normally, this will require the keeping of daily written records, often on work sheets specifically tailored to the project. The responsibility of the inspector may overlap that of the supervisor to the extent that he/she may be required to make decisions as to whether procedures and equipment meet the specifications. The extent of the responsibility of an inspector should be detailed to the satisfactory agreement of both the owner and the contractor prior to the start of field work. A checklist of areas for inspector activity follows. 

Exploration and production site inspections done by the MMS and now being carried out by BSEE involve the use of the national checklist of Potential Incidents of Non-Gompliance (PINGs), a compilation of yes/no questions regarding operator compliance with all applicable regulations. For a drilling rig, MMS inspectors looked for 160 PINGs and other verifications to determine if detailed technical requirements...

Each PINC is numbered and corresponds to a specific requirement in 30 CFR 585. Inspection procedures for renewable energy projects are listed in the PINC document, and inspectors use a checklist of procedures to verify that each component of the regulation is in place or in compliance. If an incident of noncompliance (INC) is determined, the inspector issues one of three enforcement actions warning [(W) INC], component shut-in [(C) INC], or facility shut-in [(S) INC]. 

Many companies find it helpfui to use checklists for inspections to ensure that important items are not overlooked. If they re helpful, that s fine but inspectors should be trained to question anything which doesn t appear safe or proper. They should not limit themselves to only what is on the checklist. 

Checklists should avoid excessive detail, vague criteria, and forms or attachments that overwhelm. Remember, these are just tools to aid individuals during an inspections. Once team members are skilled inspectors, they may not need checklists. 

As defined in the lASP project, in-field Sis are carried out involving three operators the driver of the vehicle, and two inspectors positioned in the front and rear seats. The inspectors observe and evaluate road conditions, filling in two different checklists. This task requires relevant expertise and skill of the inspectors. The system presented in this paper frees the operator from having to link the position in the road segment to the checklist to be filled. The inspectors fill the checklists touching the screen of the tablet coimected via Bluetooth to the GPS. In this way data are easily collected, stored and linked to the road segment stretch from where they are taken. 

Phase 2. Follow-up Inspection. After reviewing the self-inspection checklists for a specific group or facility, CCHASP schedules a follow-up inspection of the area. Problems identified in the self-inspection process (phase 1) establish the basis for an in-depth inspection of the laboratory or facility. The CCHASP inspector uses the same checklists used in the self-inspection phase to verify compliance with environment, health and safety requirements and to point out problems that may have been overlooked. An important part of this inspection program s success lies in the inspector s ability to offer immediate solutions to identified problems. The...
