| The proven technology of VHP low temperature
sterilization is now available for small enclosures
of 2 to 70 cubic feet (0.05 to 2 cubic meters) including
small isolators, biological safety cabinets, glove
boxes, CO2 incubators and small pass-through
chambers.
|
|
|
Portable unit ideal for multiple site low
temperature sterilization |
|
316L stainless steel construction |
|
Ergonomically designed for maximum operator
comfort and safety |
| |
Operator friendly touch-pad control with
printer |
| |
Reusable or disposable air drying systems
permit continuous operation and rigid humidity
control for easy validation |
|
| The
VHP cycle operates in a closed-loop configuration
where the enclosure is subjected to four phases: |
| |
Dehumidification - Reduction of relative
humidity |
|
Condition - Rapid increase to desired hydrogen
peroxide vapor concentration |
|
Biodecontamination* - Maintenance of desired
hydrogen peroxide vapor concentration |
|
Aeration - Rapid reduction of hydrogen peroxide
vapor. |
|
Cycle
times vary with initial temperature and humidity;
enclosure type, size and configuration; and load.
The process is fully automated. All cycle parameters
are monitored and recorded for process validation.

*When
using VHP equipment with Vaprox Hydrogen Peroxide
Sterilant in the United States, the term biodecontamination
referred to in this document is defined as sterilization
of exposed porous and non-porous surfaces in a pre-cleaned,
dry, sealed enclosure. Any reference to biodecontamination
as it relates to the use of this equipment in the
United States does not impart additional claims of
effectiveness beyond that approved in the EPA-registered
labeling of Vaprox Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant. |
