Vaporised hydrogen peroxide (VHP) is used both to sterilise environments between batches and to ensure that cross contamination does not occur
The use of aseptic manufacturing technology has led to a requirement for increased control over clean devices to ensure sterility.
Vaporised hydrogen peroxide (VHP) is used both to sterilise environments between batches and to ensure that cross contamination does not occur.
The measurement of VHP in these environments is required for proof of two functions; a high concentration level to ensure sterilization and a lower limit that identifies a purged environment.
Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is a technique that overcomes monitoring hurdles faced by other technologies, including sensitivity limitations, loss of accuracy at extreme concentrations, and drift.
The AirSentry-IMS provides a single analyzer technique for the broad tasks of monitoring and ensuring sterilization and purged concentrations, as well as worker safety levels.
The analyzer can be configured to monitor only low levels of VHP (0-1000ppb) or can be used in a dual range mode offering accuracy and precision at both high and low concentrations of VHP (0-20ppm and 0-2000ppm).
Optional on-board calibration allows for fast and accurate calibration verifications.
