MEDICAL REPROCESSING CLEANING EQUIPMENT

In some cases, nothing can replace hand cleaning. For some parts, however, nothing can be better than an automated cleaning system. Generally, the cleaning process involves a number of steps. Enzyme treatments with Protease, α-Amylase, Lipase, and Cellulase solutions all assist in the breakdown of various contaminants encountered on surgical instruments.

Following enzyme treatments, there can be multiple washes with different pH cleaners, multiple rinses, and sterilization. The VCN process is perfect for multiple cleaning solutions where one treatment is recycled, and the part and chamber are dried to receive the next treatment. The VCN process can reach all areas of the device and will clean most devices, including porous areas and tight areas.

One processing tank can be serviced with as many support solution holding tanks as required, and, with built-in recipes, the process can treat the device with whatever solution and for whatever time is required to ensure proper processing.

Our aqueous cleaning machines can clean parts without disassembly. The trocar above was cleaned after disassembly into two parts. As shown on the left, the trocar is typically cleaned after being separated into 11 parts. The process simplifies cleaning, saving time and eliminating human error.
