The following personnel comprise the validation team responsible for the execution of the
Operational Protocol.
This unit is designed to clean, sanitize and dry pharmaceutical bins. Bins are placed in the wash station
by lift truck and set into place. The wash station door is closed and secured and the operator initiates
the wash cycle. The wash cycle consists of pre-rinse, detergent wash, post rinse, final USP water
internal rinse, compressed air purge of water piping, hot air dry, and wash station self-clean.

Procedure
Follow instructions in the O&M manual to program the Bin Washer Washer as required
for Kronos intended process and use. Attach a copy of the programmed wash cycle
parameters to the back of this protocol for reference. Run two separate wash cycles one
for a 300 liter bin and another for a 1700 liter bin. Place bins inside unit, secure door and
initiate wash sequence. Verify that the spray heads extend properly to clean the interior
of each side bin.
Acceptance Criteria
