Hand disinfection unit is designed to facilitate routine hand cleaning and disinfection without the need to handle liquid containers, or to come in to contact with a pump dispensing system
Related Life Sciences (UK) has launched a what it says is unique automatic hand disinfection unit which can be used in conjunction with all cleaning and disinfection liquids including alcohol based solutions.
By utilisation of optical sensing technology, the operator simply places his/her hands beneath the Steripower dispenser and a predetermined amount of disinfecting liquid is dispensed.
The exact amount of liquid to be dispensed is pre-programmable in graduations of 0.5ml ensuring a repeatable and validatable performance every time.
An indication is provided when the liquid container is almost empty.
By eliminating the manual intervention process, further advantages are realised by eliminating waste and ensuring that the required amount of disinfectant is dispensed each and every time.
Cross-contamination can occur in a clinical environments when handling disinfectant containers or dispensing pumps.
This is totally eliminated by Steripower, claim Related Life Sciences.
The spraying mechanism ensures that aerosols are not produced, preventing airborne cross contamination.
The 500ml or 1l fluid container is securely fastened within the unit which eliminates the possibility of disinfectants being stolen or misplaced, ensuring that disinfectant is available at all times.
The system includes a cycle counting facility for analysis of total usages over a specified elapsed time, providing historical data validation and reporting.
This will enable hand cleaning performance to be monitored over time, a feature that was unavailable until now.
The Steripower can be wall or surface mounted, connected to a standard 240V electrical supply or, fitted with rechargeable batteries.
A medical grade absorbent pad is included within the drip tray, to prevent pooling of liquid.
