Premium Cleaning Processes
Cleaned for TOC - These containers are cleaned for Total Organic Carbons to less than 50 μg/L.
Super Clean - Super cleaned containers are typically used by companies that operate large machinery which require the oil to undergo various analytical analyses for environmental compliance and/or for routine maintenance of the machinery. Super Clean Bottles are cleaned according to strict QC procedures and meet or exceed the following specification: Less than 10 particles in the greater than 14 micron size per ML.
Ultra Clean - Ultra Cleaned containers feature a proprietary cleaning process that cleans to 100 or less particles greater than 5 microns. Designed for those needing containers free from particulate contamination our cleaning procedures can utilize a variety of cleaning methods including the use of heated high purity electronics grade filtered water or ultrasonic cleaning depending on customer requirements. Bottles are quality controlled and certified.
Vacuum & Ionization The Vacuum and Ionization process removes contaminants such as loose dirt carton lint aerosols and fine glass particles. V & I Cleaning Process:
1) Compressed air passes through a condensate separator and coalescing filter to remove aerosols and fine dust particles. 2) Next the air passes through an absorbent filter to remove gases. 3) A vacuum draws the particulate-laden atmosphere out of the container. 4) Individually cleaned closures are immediately placed on the container.
Benefits of V & I: • Is extremely cost-effective. • Saves time! No need to waste valuable time rewashing bottles. • Provides a clean final appearance. • You will not find any dust particles floating in your samples. • Seals cleanliness into each individual bottle. Since each container is individually cleaned they will not collect dust flies and other debris while stored in your lab. • Odor-free and tasteless. The air inside the bottle will not interfere with your product in any way.
