HPAC Cell Cleaning

Mini

The Parata Mini utilizes high-pressure air counting (HPAC) cells to dispense pills. Prior to

replenishing a cell with a new drug, the cell and chute should be properly cleaned to avoid

cross contamination.

This guide steps you through the process for cleaning cells. The process and materials

used apply to both locking and non-locking standard and super cells. This guide also

includes steps for removing and installing chutes. Chutes should be cleaned using the

same process your pharmacy uses to clean items that come in contact with pills.

Please note that some medications require specific precautions in terms of handling for

control purposes, preservation, or contamination risks. These medications may not be

suitable for use in automation equipment, either for counting or packaging. Please use

best pharmacy practices along with an established safety program pertaining to handling

drugs and dispensing them with pharmacy automation. Dispensing hazardous drugs with

a Parata dispensing unit is not recommended. For additional information about cleaning

cells, please contact Parata.

The process for cleaning cells has been reviewed by Bureau Veritas1and is approved for

cleaning a cell to house a new drug.
