Bio-decontamination unit for heat-sensitive loads

Ensure the integrity of heat-sensitive biopharmaceutical products by employing advanced surface bio-decontamination, using vaporized hydrogen peroxide to effectively eliminate microbial contaminants without thermal stress.

The FCDV Bio-Decontamination Unit from Fedegari offers an efficient solution for decontaminating heat-sensitive materials in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical settings. Utilizing vaporized hydrogen peroxide, this unit performs surface bio-decontamination within 30 minutes, ensuring products like monoclonal antibodies and vaccines maintain their integrity without thermal exposure. The unit features a PID-controlled hydrogen peroxide vaporizer for reliable and repeatable processes, essential for meeting stringent EMA and FDA standards. Fabricated with an AISI 316L stainless steel chamber, it ensures durability and compliance, while its flexible design allows it to function as a pass-through hatch with synchronized doors and pressure control. Thema4 process controller ensures seamless integration with existing systems, while the equipment’s conformance to European and US safety directives reinforces its suitability for critical applications within clean room environments.
