ShoLyn LynClean-320SD High-Pressure Spray Bottle Washer

Overview

The ShoLyn LynClean-320SD is a high-performance, high-capacity laboratory bottle washer engineered for reproducible, validated cleaning and thermal disinfection of reusable labware in regulated environments. It operates on the principle of high-pressure spray impingement—delivering precisely controlled, heated detergent solution via rotating upper and lower spray arms to ensure complete surface coverage across heterogeneous loads. The system integrates thermally stable fluid dynamics, precise temperature ramping (ambient to 93 °C), and programmable multi-stage cycles (pre-wash, main wash, rinse, neutralization, final rinse, and drying) to meet stringent cleanliness requirements defined by ISO 15883-1, ASTM E2558, and USP <1211>. Designed for laboratories subject to GLP, GMP, or ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, the LynClean-320SD supports full process traceability and operational integrity through embedded data logging, user authentication, and audit-ready reporting.

Key Features

• 320-liter stainless steel chamber constructed from electropolished 316L mirror-finish interior and 304 stainless steel insulated outer casing—resistant to corrosion from aggressive alkaline, acidic, and neutral detergents.
• Dual rotating spray arms equipped with fan-pattern nozzles and asymmetric trajectory design—optimized for uniform impingement pressure distribution across irregular geometries including narrow-neck flasks, graduated cylinders, Petri dishes, and volumetric glassware.
• 10° sloped chamber floor ensures complete drainage within ≤30 seconds post-rinse, eliminating stagnant water pools and minimizing carryover risk while reducing subsequent drying time by up to 22%.
• Triple-stage filtration system (coarse mesh, fine particulate, and activated carbon pre-filter) prevents debris recirculation and protects pump integrity over extended duty cycles.
• HEPA 14-certified air filtration integrated into the drying circuit delivers ≥99.995% particle removal efficiency at 0.3 µm, ensuring contamination-free drying in cleanroom-adjacent applications.
• 10-inch industrial-grade color touchscreen interface with ≥40 customizable wash programs, real-time cycle monitoring, and dynamic parameter adjustment during operation.
• Three-tier role-based access control (Operator, Supervisor, Administrator) with optional fingerprint biometric authentication—enabling secure protocol execution and accountability per FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Annex 11 requirements.

Sample Compatibility & Compliance

The LynClean-320SD accommodates a broad spectrum of reusable laboratory vessels—including borosilicate glass, polycarbonate, polypropylene, stainless steel, and ceramic items—regardless of shape (e.g., conical flasks, NMR tubes, culture plates, pipette tips, and filter funnels) or volume (1 mL to 5 L). Its programmable rack recognition capability (optional) allows automatic cycle adaptation based on load configuration. All materials contacting wash fluid comply with USP Class VI biological safety standards. The unit meets CE Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, IEC 61000-6-3 EMC emission limits, and carries ISO 9001-certified manufacturing documentation. Validation support packages—including IQ/OQ/PQ templates, temperature mapping protocols, and detergent residue testing guidelines—are available upon request.

Software & Data Management

Embedded firmware includes an integrated data logger with non-volatile memory capable of storing ≥10,000 complete wash records—including timestamps, operator ID, program name, temperature profiles, pressure logs, door open/close events, and error codes. Data export is supported via USB 2.0 interface to external drives, network-connected PCs, or label printers (optional). All records are digitally signed and tamper-evident, satisfying ALCOA+ principles (Attributable, Legible, Contemporaneous, Original, Accurate, Complete, Consistent, Enduring, Available). Software supports CSV and PDF report generation compatible with LIMS integration. Optional Ethernet connectivity enables remote diagnostics and centralized fleet management across multi-site facilities.

Applications

This washer serves critical cleaning workflows in pharmaceutical QC labs, clinical diagnostic centers, contract research organizations (CROs), and academic core facilities. Typical use cases include preparation of HPLC vials prior to chromatographic analysis; decontamination of microbiology media bottles before autoclaving; removal of protein residues from ELISA plates; recovery of precious catalysts from reaction vessels; and routine sterilization of glassware used in elemental analysis (ICP-MS, AAS). Its validated performance makes it suitable for cleaning components used in cell therapy manufacturing where endotoxin reduction and bioburden control are essential.

FAQ
