Concurrent Validation or Prospective Validation

Can anyone pls help me? Is PQ is same as process validation?
I have new equipment in our facility. I will do the performance qualification for the same equipment. I am just wondering, do we need to do the process validation for the product?
During PQ, we will do 3 batches, it will be sampled for chemical and microbiological testing, so I am skeptical.

To brief for more clarification, the product we get from the drying room and process with the new equipment and the end product will be packing/bottling right after the step from the equipment.
can respond here or email @ [email protected]
I really appreciate any help you can provide.
