Ethylene oxide sterilization for heat-sensitive medical products
Sterilizing medical products that are sensitive to heat and moisture poses significant challenges in maintaining product integrity and preventing contamination. In such scenarios, an effective and reliable low-temperature sterilization method is crucial to ensure safety and compliance with stringent healthcare standards.
Ensure low-temperature sterilization with high precision
The GEE Ethylene Oxide (EO) Sterilizers from Getinge provide a solution for sterilizing heat and moisture-sensitive products. These sterilizers utilize ethylene oxide’s capability to penetrate wrapped and packaged goods at very low temperatures, ensuring thorough sterilization without compromising product integrity. Equipped with a PLC automation system, these EO sterilizers offer precise control and monitoring, complemented by a full SCADA system for detailed batch reporting and traceability. The system includes redundant safety features and a dual gasket door design that ensures a leak-tight seal, even in the event of service failures. The automatic pallet transfer system (APTS) enables safe and efficient handling of products, eliminating the need for operator entry into the chamber and maximizing throughput. Getinge’s EO sterilizers are built for full compliance with ATEX regulations, supporting safe operations in demanding environments.
