for medical waste

-Pressure container built of high quality Stainless Steel -Design and production certified by TUV Austria -Produced according to EU Directives PED 2014/68/EU, 2006/42/EC, 2014/30/EU & EU Norms EN285 -Simultaneous Shredding and Sterilization process for higher capacity output -Automatic loading and unloading ramp for the autoclave carts -Sophisticated automation control system with advanced reporting and monitoring software -Online access via internet for supervision and troubleshooting -Fully automatic operation- no need for any operator intervention -Automatic elevator system for easy loading Loading At the beginning of the cycle , once the upper lid opens, the automatic elevator empties the waste in the loading chamber. As the upper lid closes shredding starts. Shredding The shredder, controlled by the PLC, changes rotation direction due to the “anti blocking” capability that prevents the blades to get jammed. Our special design shredder is capable of grinding very hard materials like surgical stainless steel instruments and hard ceramics. The mixing device in the upper chamber will provide the continuous feeding of the shredder. Heating / Sterilization Heating is achieved by injecting saturated steam until the homogeneous temperature in the upper and lower chamber reaches 134°C (274 F). Sterilization is completed by maintaining 134°C (274 F) - 138 °C (280 F) temperature and equivalent pressure for a period of 10 – 15 minutes. These factors provide the possibility to decrease the pathogenic contamination level in the medical waste by 8 Log 10 value.
