Z-1000 Sterilization Chamber

By XENON Corporation

High-Energy Pulsed Light System Specifications: Sterilization Chamber The Z-1000 Sterilization Chamber, with removable lamp housing and sample tray, is detached from the benchtop controller. Ozone is evacuated to ensure EPA ozone level compliance in the workplace. Forced air evacuation is in the range of 1-4 volumes per minute to ensure no heat buildup within the chamber during sterilization. The chamber does not evacuate airborne pathogens nor introduce airborne pathogens into the chamber while the system is in the ON cycle. Ozone-resistant microbe filters are used at both the inlet and outlets of the ventilation path to ensure containment of airborne pathogens. The chamber has an interlocking door connected with the safety interlock switches in the controller. The chamber and insert are made of stainless steel construction for ease of sterilization and disinfection. This construction also insures the chamber is able to withstand UV light and heat conditions experienced under normal operating conditions. A total of 11 positions are available in the sterilization chamber to quickly allow the operator to position the stainless steel sample tray below the flashlamp window. This feature facilitates studies with different pulse intensities on the sample. An optional light intensity monitor, Light Mark-XL™, is mounted on the side of the sterilization chamber.
