Bio-Pharm: IBC Wash
BP-IBCWash-IBCs
A Flexible Automated System for a Safe and Consistent Clean
Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are commonly used in solid dosage pharmaceutical manufacturing as storage, transport and blending vessels. And like all other process items, IBCs must be cleaned.
Sani-Matic understands the importance of integrating a successful critical cleaning program into your pharmaceutical manufacturing process and designed the IBC Wash to consistently and safely wash IBCs, totes, tablet bins and other vessels containing hazardous and non-hazardous compounds.
The Sani-Matic IBC Wash meets cGMP and ASME-BPE standards.
The fully automated stainless steel cabinet washer delivers repeatable and documentable cleaning and drying results with a series of important and unique features:
Vertically descending spray arm cleans IBCs of varying heights
Sensors ensure IBC lids have been removed and the IBC is properly positioned
Non-threaded, 1/4 turn removable nozzles
Proof of rotation sensors
Self-cleaning capabilities
A CIP supply and recirculation assembly
Pneumatically inflatable door gaskets
A complete dryer system to prevent bacterial growth
