Andersen Refill Kits

In the Andersen system, the EtO is supplied in a glass ampoule which is held within a break-shield. Gas is delivered to the heart of the load, achieving the highest level of sterilisation for any given amount of gas.

The gas is released by breaking the ampoule. The EtO boils, giving a very distinctive bubbling and cooling feeling as it does so. This provides very clear, positive feedback that the ampoule has been properly activated.

The packaged items, ready to be sterilised, are placed inside the supplied sterilisation bag. The cabinet holds the space around the sterilisation bag below room pressure. This ensures that any leak is from the room into the cabinet. Any EtO released through the bag is taken to the outside through the exhaust tube at the back of the cabinet.

The bag volumes vary in size, giving great flexibility in the volume, size and shape of items that can be sterilised.

The standard Anprolene refill kit comes with ampoules and liner bags for 14 cycles. The ampoules and liner bags are packaged in a convenient storage/dispenser box. Each ampoule contains 17.6 g of EtO, and the liner bag (sterilisation chamber) holds up to 40L. This kit is suitable for use with any Anprolene steriliser.

Technical Details

When packaged, each ampoule is surrounded by a fabric shield. The ampoule and this shield are sealed in a plastic bag which acts as the gas diffusion - or gas release-membrane.
