OverviewIntegrated module for spray cleaning and automated emptying of vessels in ATF Xtend™ systems. Designed for seamless integration with fully automated ATF Xtend dissolution testers, the CS-F Cleaning Station performs automated emptying and cleaning of all vessels and liquid paths.
Key functions- EMPTY - Simultaneously empties all vessels of the integrated ATF Xtend dissolution bath, removing undissolved particles and residues.
- CLEAN - Automated power washing of individual vessels using rotating spray nozzles.
- COMPLETE - Cleans all liquid paths including sampling and return lines.
- REPRODUCIBLE - Ensures consistent emptying and cleaning cycles.
- VALIDATION - Supports validation of cleaning processes for different media and methods.
- UNLIMITED - Enables automated cleaning after each dissolution test without restriction.
- INTEGRATED - Built into the ATF Xtend™ system design for synchronized operation.
Highlights- Flexible waste cannulas automatically position to vessel bottoms for complete emptying.
- Clean-in-place routines with rotating spray nozzles; programmable multiple cycles using hot/cold DI water or cleaning agents can be saved per product.
- Validated cleaning routines reduce carry-over and cross-contamination; product-specific procedures can be embedded in dissolution methods.
Operation details- Automated simultaneous vessel emptying and spray cleaning.
- Flexible waste cannulas for thorough removal of residues and undissolved particles.
