Steris System 1

STERIS System 1 Overview

The STERIS System 1 is a state-of-the-art automated processor dedicated to ensuring effective and standardized sterile processing of medical devices. Engineered with a microcomputer control system, it maintains crucial process parameters within an environmentally sealed chamber, creating optimal conditions for sterilization. The device is specifically designed to adhere to the safe temperature limits recommended by most manufacturers, thereby protecting heat-sensitive instruments throughout the processing cycle.

Key Features

Upon completion of each sterilization cycle, the STERIS System 1 generates a comprehensive printout, delivering vital documentation of the process and load information.
The system accommodates a diverse range of devices and procedure-specific sets thanks to its specialized processing trays and containers. These are meticulously crafted to position devices correctly, ensuring a continuous exchange of sterilant and rinse on all exposed surfaces, including internal structures and lumens. Moreover, the design helps to safeguard sensitive devices from potential environmental contamination during transportation to the sterile field.
