Air compressing station for radiopharmaceutical labs
Efficiently manage and monitor potentially contaminated air in radiopharmaceutical environments with precision air compression and storage, ensuring safe discharge post-decontamination.
Compresses and Stores Radioactive Air Safely
The ACS 800 Air Compressing Station from Comecer is engineered for precision handling of potentially radioactive air in radiopharmaceutical and nuclear medicine applications. This system stands out by incorporating a membrane compressor designed to create negative pressure within the intake mode, efficiently compressing and storing air. Connected to up to 16 cells and capable of managing up to 5 production boxes simultaneously, it streamlines contaminated air handling and storage. Equipped with pressure gauges and a Geiger probe within a Marinelli system for contamination monitoring, the ACS 800 ensures the reliability of your safety operations. It integrates seamlessly with COMECER production cells and can interface with cyclotron vacuum pumps, providing a critical safety measure during target malfunctions. With a 200-litre air accumulation and storage tank system, it offers robust air management, while the 50-litre vacuum tank extends its storage capabilities. Illuminate™ manufacturing intelligence supports real-time performance monitoring and is crucial for sustainable production improvements. The ACS 800 adheres to strict safety and environmental standards, fulfilling compliance needs and ensuring that your facility remains operational and secure.
