GEA Sterilcap VHP R Vapor Hydrogen Peroxide caps sterilizer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Sterilcap VHP R is a caps sterilizer utilizing vaporized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for effective sterilization. It ensures up to 6 log reductions in microbial presence, specifically targeting B. atrophaeus ATCC9372 on both internal and external surfaces of caps. The system is designed to prevent shadowed areas, ensuring comprehensive exposure.
Design and Functionality: The machine is compact and positioned above the filler to utilize gravity for feeding the capper. It supports both sport and flat caps, allowing for quick changeovers without compromising sterility. The system is compatible with GEA ABF (Aseptic Blow Fill) and other aseptic fillers combined with traditional blowers.
Features:
  • Compact layout with isolated sterilizing area.
  • Uniform H2O2 concentration for gentle treatment without removing slipping agents.
  • No water consumption, suitable for high-speed lines and both high and low acid products.
  • Integrated H2O2 sterilizing solution preparation and dosing.
  • Automatic changeover between sport and flat caps without mechanical intervention or loss of sterility.
Additional Benefits: The Sterilcap VHP R creates a buffer of caps to ensure redundancy, allowing the aseptic blow filling block to be emptied without loss of preforms or bottles in case of cap jamming.

GEA Sterilcap VHP R Vapor Hydrogen Peroxide caps sterilizer-1

GEA Sterilcap VHP RVapor Hydrogen Peroxide caps sterilizer Sterilcap VHP R is a caps sterilizer based on a sterilizing effect of H2O2 in vapor form at the right concentration and temperature, where the caps remain for a time, long enough to guarantee up to 6 log reductions. The design of the chutes inside the machine ensures that all the cap surfaces are exposed to prevent any shadowed area. Sterilcap VHP R is located on the top of the filler in order to feed the capper by gravity and has a very compact layout. Decontamination parameters ensure a gentle treatment without removing the caps slipping agent. Since VHP is a genuine dry sterilization technology, it does not use any water. Sterilcap VHP R is also capable to treat both sport and flat caps in the same machine, moreover it is able to perform a fast changeover without losing sterility. The system represents the perfect cap sterilization solution to be coupled with the GEA ABF (Aseptic Blow Fill) in order to allow the usage of one single chemical sterilizing media. It also can be coupled with any other solution where an aseptic filler is combined with a traditional blower. In addition to an excellent sterilization performance, the Sterilcap VHP is designed to create a buffer of caps to guarantee the necessary redundancy required by a blow fill solution: in case of cap jamming the aseptic blow filling bloc can be emptied with no loss of preforms or bottles. engineering for a better world
