Condenser and refrigeration plant: URS and qualification document flow
The User Requirement Specification is the first document in the qualification set, and the one every later verification traces back to. Pharma4i generates the URS today. The rest of this flow is shown so the scope is clear; those documents are marked Soon and are not produced by the product.

Qualification document flow for a condenser and refrigeration plant.
Your URS is the input to every document to its right. Each requirement carries an ID so verification can be traced back to it.
What is specific to a condenser and refrigeration plant
Load Pattern Validation LPV
Every load pattern used in routine production must be qualified; unqualified loads may not be processed.
Thermal Mapping TM
Acceptance is expressed as delivered lethality: F0 for moist heat sterilisation, Fh for dry heat and depyrogenation, measured at the worst-case location.
