 Integrated Sterilizer & Shredder

Celitron’s medical hazardous waste solution, the Integrated Sterilizer &


Shredder (ISS),  is a steam sterilizer with an integrated shredder,
designed for on-site conversion of biological infectious medical waste in
hospitals and clinics, complying the EU and WHO recommendations.
The Integrated Sterilizer and Shredder line contains models with 25, 150
and 560-liter capacity, suitable for dialysis centers, laboratories, clinics
and hospitals. These health-care facilities with our eco-friendly non-
incineration technology are able to reduce the cost on the biomedical
waste disposal, while minimizing the risk of cross-contamination as the
entire process is done within one single vessel.
400+ medical waste treatment units sold worldwide, to 40+ countries in
Europe, the Middle East, Latin-America, Africa and Asia. Operators have
received these models positively, reporting that they are simpler, more
convenient and significantly cheaper to use. Celitron’s clinical waste
disposal units are the best solution.
 Average processable waste: 5 - 150kg / h
 Easy to Operate: No need for special technician qualification.
 Environmentally Sound: Shredded waste is reduced to as little as
1/5 its original volume, without emitting harmful substances.
 Cost-effective: Inexpensive operation and maintenance.
 Totally Safe: Automatic locking door prohibit unauthorized
interruption.
 Easily and Quickly Installed: Easy to adapt and integrate into the
hospital’s waste management system.

HAZARDOUS MEDICAL WASTE DISPOSAL THROUGH STERILIZATION: THIS


IS HOW THE PROCESS LOOKS LIKE
Our medical waste sterilization and shredding models use only steam
and electricity to process highly infectious hospital waste on-site,
without emitting harmful substances.
The entire process is automatic, including opening and closing the door,
and the sequences of shredding and sterilization. Depending on the
capacity, the total cycle time can be as fast as 15-35 minutes with up to
150 kg of medical waste which can be processed in our clinical waste
disposal unit.
After being treated in the ISS, the waste is sterile. The liquid components
of the waste are steamed out of the vessel, re-condensed and drained to
a municipal sewer. As the waste is dehydrated, there is no risk of
contaminated wastewater. The waste is rendered, fragmented, non-
toxic, largely solid in addition to being dry and therefore safe to be
disposed of as regular municipal waste.
The high grade (316L) stainless steel vessel conforms to the Pressure
Equipment Directive (PED) and is fitted with a motor-driven shaft, with
powerful shredding / crushing blades that can rotate in two directions to
reduce the size and volume of the waste down to 20%. The vessel is
constructed with internal sprinklers for automatic cleaning and is
equipped with one door, provided with an automatic locking
mechanism.
The blades are mounted on the shaft and are designed to shred
biomedical waste such as sharps, dialyzers, syringes, papers, cloth,
plastic and glass. Shredding is important as it enhances the steam
penetration therefore improves the overall sterilization results (SAL >
6log10).
The steam is produced by a steam generator, supplied by water
purification (reverse osmosis system) and draining system as standard
accessories.

MEDICAL WASTE SHREDDER: FEATURES AND ACCESSORIES


The microprocessor-based control system automatically controls all
cycles. The system includes a digital full color touch-screen LCD display,
communication, self and remote diagnosis and PC connection for
external documentation and printing. The displayed information is
available for users in a variety of languages. During the waste
sterilization cycle the control system measures, controls and shows in
digital display: the time, chamber temperature, chamber pressure and
waste sterilization status. The control system ensures high reliability,
simplicity, safety of operation and automatic biomedical waste process
cycles.
All medical waste sterilizer and shredder models are equipped with
built-in ink printer and SD card for cycle documentation.
Our hospital waste disposal unit, the Integrated Sterilizer and Shredder
models have numerous safety features including a safety valve,
thermostat, temperature sensors, a water detection electrode, pressure
sensors, a door locking device and software safety features. The
controller is capable of providing an audio alarm, as well as displaying
and printing several alarms. The ISS meets the highest standards for
machinery, quality, safety and operation.
All hospital waste sterilization and shredding models are equipped with
an energy saving mode, which is activated when the unit is not used
after a certain period of time. This mode reduces power consumption by
approximately 12% to 30% and is thus environmentally friendly.
The ISS line offers 5 preset cycles: 3 waste sterilization cycles, 1 test for
leakage detection and 1 cleaning cycle. The 3 preprogrammed waste
sterilization cycles are for normal and mixed biohazardous waste, for
special hospital waste generated at the customer’s site and for
glassware, where large amount of infectious glass waste is produced.
Some models also have the ability to work as a medical waste autoclave
without shredding, especially when large amounts of textiles have to be
processed.

SHARPS DISPOSAL WITH A MEDICAL WASTE SHREDDER: WHY WE


RECOMMEND IT
Our eco-friendly biological infectious waste solution provides complete
sterilization with volume reduction, eliminating the costs for the
biohazard waste hauler and the need of a special storage room for the
collected regulated medical waste.
