5596 Autoclave for medical waste sterilization
Compact medical waste sterilizer
The 5596 medical waste autoclave is designed to service hospitals and large medical centers that need to process high volumes of medical waste safely and on site.
Prevacuum Air Sterilization ensures all air that leaves the chamber prior to sterilization is treated as highly infectious and passes through a stringent biological decontamination system that renders the air sterile.
Reliable and easy to use, the 5596 comes standard with a full temperature range and a working pressure that meets AMSE and PED requirements.
The 5596 medical waste autoclave provides many advantages for on-site medical waste treatment and off-site disposal of medical waste. The model can be reconfigured to fit the layout of your facility.
Cost-Effective
• Easy on-site installation removes need to transport waste to an external treatment facility
• Cost reduction in treatment and management of potentially infectious waste
• Reduced liability for waste producer due to no off-site treatment processing
• Relatively modest price and operating cost allows for quicker cost recovery
Flexible PT100 for Liquid Loads
• When treating blood, urine and other liquid medical waste a flexible PT100 placed in liquid waste load ensures sterilization at an effective sterilization temperature.
Safe Landfill Disposal
Sterilized medical waste which has been processed to remove sharps is simple to dispose in a municipal landfill
Fast cooling for fast cycles
Built-in fast cooling reduces cycle processing times enabling higher cycle rates and empowering you to sterilize medical waste without delays.
Water Saving
AquaMinimal systems (optional) minimize water consumption between 50% and 90%
Environmentally Safe
• Chemical-free process
• No radiation
• Clean and environmentally safe technology
Advanced Touch Control
The large, colorful touch screen gives you an easy-to-read overview of real-time chamber values, as well as temperature and pressure trend graphs
Stainless Steel Piping
Piping is made of top-quality stainless steel to avoid corrosion and contamination of the sterilized loads
An optimized program for every load
The 5596 comes with 8 pre-set and 20 customizable cycle programs, as well as 2 standard diagnostic tests.
