Medicraft Laminar Flow System
MEDICRAFT Ultra Clean Air Laminar flow System provides low turbulence, downward displacement air flow, towards the operating zone. This air supply system combines the effect of both air dilution and air displacement methods. The system performs the sterilisation of the OT environment automatically. The bacteria count in OT can be considerably reduced if good staff discipline is maintained and the supply air temperature is carefully chosen and maintained.
The latest state-of-the-art ceiling system is designed to distribute air as well as light into the operating zone, at the same time provide medical gas, power and electrosurgical outlet at positions convenient to both the surgeon and anaesthetist.
The resulting flow pattern is well balanced and the entire operating zone is under the shower of clean air supply. As the flow pattern does not solely depend on any directed air jets there is less chance of it being obstructed by the ceiling-mounted equipment.
The HEPA filters at the terminal create uniform backpressure so that the air can diffuse towards the operating table at a uniform velocity. The HEPA filters of efficiency up to 99.98% (0.3 microns) are mounted inside the supply air plenum and can be maintained and serviced from below the ceiling. No undesirable ceiling access openings are required inside the operation theatre.
A dedicated package air conditioning system, specially designed to meet the air parameters of sterile environment as per NABH, constitutes a combination of specially designed Air Handling Unit, a series of filter modules, and environment managing components. The system is so designed that it should deliver treated and filtered air in the right quality, quantity and flow pattern as per Vertical Laminar Flow standards. The air velocity, temperature, Relative humidity, Air filtration, Positive pressure etc. are well maintained in the OT environment. required air change and percentage of fresh air mixing can be achieved. These units are available in
- Chiller Compatible machines
- Individual Condensation unit-attached systems.
