Mobile biodecontamination unit for small to mid-size rooms

Efficiently achieve 6-log bioburden reduction in controlled environments, integrating seamlessly with existing systems for precision biodecontamination of sensitive spaces, ensuring sterility and safety in small to mid-size rooms, biosafety cabinets, and isolators.

Decontaminates and Sterilizes Using Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor

The VHP Flex Mobile Biodecontamination Unit from STERIS employs dry vapor technology to achieve a validated 6-log bioburden reduction, making it an essential tool for decontaminating cleanrooms, biosafety cabinets, and pharmaceutical environments. Designed for versatility, it integrates easily into existing systems using protocols like Profinet, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus for remote operation. The unit is crucial for producing vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, and sterile pharmaceutical liquids by ensuring a contaminant-free environment. It features the Vaprox Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant, which decomposes harmlessly, ensuring no residues on sensitive equipment or environments. Its mobile design suits both standalone and integrated operations, supported by traceable RFID technology for compliance. Built for efficiency and ease, it allows users to choose from stored cycles or customize decontamination settings, ensuring optimal performance in dynamic environments.
