the temperature must be monitored with a permanent thermocouple and it must be plotted against real time;
the pressure stage must be monitored with a permanent pressure gauge; pressure must be plotted against real time;
the processing time must be shown by time/temperature and time/pressure diagrams.
At least once a year the thermocouple and the pressure gauge must be calibrated.
the temperature and the pressure must be monitored with thermocouples, or an infrared temperature gun, and pressure gauges must be used at defined positions throughout the process system in such a way that temperature and pressure comply with the required conditions inside the whole continuous system or in a section of it; the temperature and pressure must be plotted against real time;
