Ethylene Oxide Gas Sterilizer By Krishna Engineering

With the years of experience and vast knowledge, we are involved in manufacturing, supplying and exporting Ethylene Oxide Gas Sterilizer, which is commonly used to sterilize objects sensitive to temperatures greater than 60 A C and / or radiation such as plastics, optics and electrics. Ethylene oxide treatment is generally carried out between 30 A C and 60 A C with relative humidity above 30% and a gas concentration between 200 and 800 mg/l, and typically lasts for at least three hours. Ethylene oxide penetrates well, moving through paper, cloth, and some plastic films and is highly effective. ETO can kill all known viruses, bacteria and fungi, including bacterial spores and is compatible with most materials (e.g. of medical devices), even when repeatedly applied. However, it is highly flammable, toxic and carcinogenic.Ethylene oxide is still widely used by medical device manufacturers for larger scale sterilization (e.g. by the pallet), but while still used, ETO is becoming less popular in hospitals. The use of CFCs as the carrier gas was banned because of concerns of ozone depletion and halogenated hydrocarbons are being replaced by so-called 100% ETO systems because of the much greater cost of the blends. In hospitals, most ETO sterilizers use single use cartridges.
