Medical Vacuum Filter
Medical Vacuum Filter For Hygienic Surrounding:
A Medical Vacuum Filter for hygienic surroundings is a crucial component in healthcare facilities, functioning within a central vacuum system with HEPA filters to efficiently capture and contain harmful particles, pathogens, and contaminants from the air. With a filtration efficiency of 99.97%, these filters prevent the spread of airborne infections, minimize cross-contamination, and adhere to strict medical standards and regulations. Regular maintenance is essential, and some advanced filters may include automatic monitoring features. Overall, Medical Vacuum Filters play a vital role in maintaining a safe and clean environment for patients, healthcare professionals, and visitors.
To address this bio-safety concern, quality into use to extract contaminants out, quickly and completely. For such a purpose, Health Technical Memorandum 2022 has been drafted, requiring hospitals’ steadfast compliance.
The Nitrogenium's Medical Vacuum Filter product boasts highly efficient filter elements that surpass the penetration requirement specified in HTM 2022 for infectious disease units. The filters have been tested according to BS 3928 standards, demonstrating an impressive efficiency of less than 0.005% penetration. This exceptional filtration capability ensures that harmful particles, pathogens, and contaminants are effectively captured and contained, making it a reliable choice for maintaining a hygienic and safe environment in healthcare settings. The medical vacuum filter's compliance with rigorous standards reinforces its effectiveness in preventing the spread of airborne infections and diseases, aligning with the high-quality expectations of medical facilities.
Actually, in our flask is attached thereby, wherein biological fluids get accumulated and such can easily be washed and cleansed later for the overall purpose of sterilization. Nonetheless, it is mandatory for the staff to examine the flask every single day and to take care of cleaning and sterilization on regular basis. Further, we also emphasize that the filter portion should be changed twice in a year, (after every 6 months) or when the pressure rate dips to 100 mbas.
Keeping our promise to serve quality devices we guarantee filter efficiency to rise above 0.005% of penetration, which is already being mentioned in HTM 2022 meant for places where infection can rise to record levels or where test is conducted as per BS 3928 standard.
Medical Vacuum Filters’ Operational Framework:
Our system has vacuum which is forced into the filter from inlet port and then, from outlet port, cleaned and sanitized vacuum, which is free from any impurity and contaminants, is provided by the filter. Now, there is placed the main chamber, whereby vacuum inlet and outlet is fitted and which also has a differential gauge, placed on top.
Inside the filter, when the pressure dips, such gets reflected by the gauge which has a couple of dials for ease of handling. Now, when we release the compressed air into the filter, its low pressure is accordingly determined by the gauge needle.
Clearly, when the medical vacuum filter gets cleaned of any impurities, the pressure drop becomes low, while the needle moves to green portion. The filter element gathers impurities from the incoming vacuum which simultaneously increasing pressure drop. Now, when the needle is pushed to red part, it signifies that the pressure rate is high and the time to change the filter element instantly, so as to emphasize proper filtering and sanitation.
Finally, during the whole process, it is inside the filter that biological fluids gets collected alongside oil, after which oil and fluid are released from time to time from the outlet. In drain flask, there is collected biological fluid, which can easily be detached from the framework when the Ball valve is closed and keeping it in the separate chamber known as autoclave for later use.

M-VAC SERIES
Product Code: M-VAC FILTER
M-VAC series
M-VAC filters are designed for medical vacuum applications. They are optimized for high efficient removal of bacterial and other contamination (solids and liquids) from the suction side of vacuum pumps preventing damage to the pump and the potential biological infection of the surrounding environment. Removed liquids are collected in a transparent flask which can be removed for sterilisation. The efficiency of the installed filter elements exceeds the 0,005 % penetration specified in HTM 2022 for infectious disease units, when tested in accordance with BS 3928.
