Carrier System for Vial/Syringe Washers

Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Carrier System

Definition

The carrier system is a critical component of vial/syringe washers that securely holds and moves containers (vials, syringes, or other labware) through various cleaning stages including washing, rinsing, and drying zones. It ensures precise positioning and consistent movement for thorough and uniform cleaning. The system typically uses conveyor belts, rotating carousels, or linear transport mechanisms powered by electric motors. Containers are loaded onto carriers or trays that move along a predetermined path through the washer's chambers, with timing and speed controlled to optimize cleaning efficiency. The carrier system is designed to handle standard vial sizes with diameters ranging from 10 to 40 mm and heights from 30 to 100 mm, achieving throughput rates of 200 to 600 vials per minute. Positioning accuracy is maintained within ±0.5 mm to ensure proper nozzle alignment. The system operates within a temperature range of 5 to 40°C and a pressure range of 1.0 to 1.6 MPa. Electrical supply is 24 V DC (±10%), with power consumption between 0.5 and 1.5 kW. Ingress protection ratings range from IP54 to IP65 (per IEC 60529) for washdown areas. Materials commonly used include stainless steel (304/316, with 316L per ASTM A240 for corrosion resistance), food-grade plastics, and anodized aluminum. The system's weight ranges from 150 to 300 kg, and its footprint is 1.5 to 3.0 m², designed for compact cleanroom integration. The carrier system is a component that must be selected based on specific washer configuration and container types. Verification of model-specific values and standards with the legal manufacturer or supplier is essential before procurement or installation.

Working Principle

The carrier system operates by using conveyor belts, rotating carousels, or linear transport mechanisms powered by electric motors. Containers are loaded onto carriers or trays that move along a predetermined path through the washer's chambers. Timing and speed are controlled to optimize cleaning efficiency, ensuring precise positioning and consistent movement for thorough and uniform cleaning.
