A cleaning device for cleaning a connector comprising a lumen and an inner threaded surface. The cleaning device includes a cleaning body and a plunger body operably coupled to each other. The cleaning body includes a plurality of elongated cleaning swabs positioned separately apart from and in parallel to each other. The plurality of elongated cleaning swabs are operably rotatable about a connector lumen and in removable engagement with a connector inner threaded surface. The plunger body includes an elongated plug to removably engage the connector lumen. The cleaning body and the plunger body are translatably coupled along a common operational axis. The cleaning body and the plunger body are rotatably coupled with respect to each other about the common operational axis. The cleaning body is an integral structure.

A pre-saturated wiper for use in a cleanroom environment, or other similarly controlled environment, that includes a woven fabric which incorporates a unique weave pattern with sealed edges that is saturated with only Ultrapure water (UPW).

A substrate cleaning apparatus includes a substrate holding mechanism holding the substrate, a rotation mechanism rotating the substrate held by the substrate holding mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism cleaning the substrate. The cleaning mechanism includes a support column, an arm extending from the support column and having a fixed height position, a cleaning tool supported by the arm and cleaning a surface of the substrate by contacting the surface, a lift mechanism moving the cleaning tool vertically with respect to the arm between an raised position separated from the substrate and a lowered position in contact with the substrate, and a controller controlling at least a speed at which the cleaning tool descends.

A cleaning swab device and method for cleaning a fluid coupling or connector. The device includes a generally elongate cylindrical tubular swab body, and a channel formed at an end thereof to define at least one cleaning finger for insertion into a housing and/or port of the connector to remove residual fluids, clean and disinfect the connector. The cleaning device optionally further includes a guide stem or plunger configured to extend through the tubular body of the swab, having a plug at one end for sealing debris out of a lumen of the connector during cleaning.
