MEDICAL DEVICES STERILIZATION

Beamcomplex has developed compact modules with built-in electron accelerators that can be installed in medical device manufacturing plants to sterilize syringes, blood transfusion systems, hip replacements, pacemakers, defibrillators and much more. Read Trends in Sterilization (IAEA)

TECHNOLOGY OF STERILIZATION BY ELECTRON ACCELERATORS

E-BEAM | X-RAY

Electron accelerators use high energy of electrons and X-Rays as a method of sterilization. Electron accelerator generates and accelerates electrons that pass through materials and products, inducing breaks in the DNA of pathogens, and thus sterilizing the materials.
Products can be treated in tightly sealed packaging, which prevents it from recontamination.





EFFECTS OF STERILIZATION
WITH ELECTRON ACCELERATOR
  • Complete elimination of pathogenic microorganisms, viruses and bacteria.
  • The only sterilization method in individually sealed packaging that prevents recontamination.
  • Compared with Co-60 sterilization, the structure of the polymers does not change with e-beam sterilization.
  • The material structure doesn't change. The treatment doesn't affect physical or chemical properties of packaging
  • Products are ready for use immediately after processing.
  • No residual radiation in treated products
  • Complete sterility of both internal and external surfaces of the packaging.
  • Sterilization by electron accelerators ensures and guarantees safe use of the sterilized packaging and eliminates recontamination.
