Small Volume Injectable’s star
Containers coming in contact with parenteral preparations must be rendered sterile and non-pyrogenic The Vega Series of rotary vial washers handles this process successfully, and the easily configured washing sequence enhances the efficiency of the cleaning procedure.
As the majority of SVIs are processed aseptically (i.e. end containers are not sterilised), it is essential to adhere rigorously to cGMP standards as far as sterility assurance is concerned – FDA and EMA guidelines.
Vega respects the abovementioned standards and guidelines in terms of structural design, connections, and adaptability of the decontamination process.

IMA Life
Low maintenance impact.
Ultrasonic pre-wash connection with de-packing machines or turntables.
Completely drainable washing circuit.
Steaming in place of washing circuit.
Easy and full access to the machine from both sides, no hidden areas.
Washing process completely validatable.
Able to handle a wide range of containers (ampoules, vials, cartridges).
Compact version for low-speed production lines, with upstream integrated rotary table.
The decontamination cycle varies with the condition of the containers to be cleaned, therefore, besides the integration of additional media, the Vega washer can conveniently include siliconizing stations and a SIP process.
