Washer disinfectors are an integral part of the complete decontamination process. They are complimentary to autoclaves, not a replacement or alternative, but a key step in providing best practice infection control.
Instrument cleaning is vital if effective sterilisation is to take place. If an instrument is not clean it cannot be sterilised. Traditionally, institutes have used staff to manually wash instruments but manual cleaning puts the person cleaning the instruments at a serious health and safety risk.
The massive flow of water spraying all items in the washer-disinfection process results in very effective physical (mechanical) cleaning. Washer disinfectors have a triple function: first a thorough cleaning process with water, then with chemicals (option with two chemicals) and followed by heat disinfection where the water temperature is elevated almost to boiling point.
Zoru Bhathena’s Division– Periclave, backed by 65 years of family experience in manufacturing Sterilizer, Autoclave, CSSD, TSSU, Laundry and kitchen equipment for hospitals has upgraded its fully automatic washer disinfector. It is a very powerful tool to reduce hospital acquired infection for patient and hospital staff as it reduces the bio burden from the instrument thus making it safe for further handling. It can be used in wards, OT, and CSSD.
Washer disinfector from Periclave is a straight through model designed to wash, rinse and disinfect all kinds of surgical instruments, anesthetic and respiratory tubing, suction devices, bottles and other glassware/metal apparatus.
The process is automatically controlled in a time regulated sequence through a PLC with Ethernet communication port and 4” touch screen human machine interface.
PLC also controls all services, programming and statistic functions and has following programs:
- Rapid program — for lightly soiled items
- Standard Program — for medium soiled items
- Intensive care program — for heavily soiled items
- User Program — (for special requirement as per end user)
The disinfector is equipped with a powerful water circulation pump, electric heater to raise the temperature of water up to 900C for disinfection, detachable rotating spray arms for good washing, dosing pump with variable detergent dosing facility, sensor to detect level in soap tank and easy refilling system, sensor for water in chamber to avoid dry run, double wall with insulation to run with minimum sound and heat emission, two water inlet: first for normal water used in washing and second for treated water for rising and BMS connectivity port. The disinfector has the facility to accommodate bigger items with variable shelf facility and also attachment specially for hollow devices.

Periclave washer disinfector is a fully automatic washer disinfector for the cleaning and disinfecting of contaminated dishware, surgical instruments etc. in hospitals, laboratory & pharmaceutical industry.
High Impact Cleaning system: The disinfector consists of four rotary pray arms. The design and location of the arms ensure that every surface of the loaded material is almost uniformly cleaned. The chamber of the disinfector has rounded corners to prevent dirty breeding grounds.
Flexible loading system: Our disinfector comes with a range of standard accessories for different surgical appliance and kidney trays, bottles, tubing and instruments.
- Automatic Detergent loading system: The machine is incorporated with an automatic detergent dozing system to doze the required amount of detergent in the rinsing water.
- Inbuilt Disinfection system: The unit is incorporated with an in built electric water heater. The hot water here is used to disinfect the loaded material at a temperature of 90°C (i.e. hemodisinfection) after thorough cleaning & rinsing.
- User friendly Program menu: The disinfector has a PLC & touch screen HMI based control system and operation. The HMI and PLC with pre-programmed processes give the user fantastic flexibility for cleaning and disinfecting a wide range of load configurations with the facility to change the process parameters from time to time.
- Inbuilt heating Systems: The disinfector is equipped with an electric heating system. This heats the water to a temperature of 90°C for higher cleaning efficiency.
- Construction System: The complete body is fabricated out of non-corrosive SS 304 quality material. The inner chamber is made of SS 316 quality material with rounded corners for easy cleaning and to avoid contamination. The door is provided with a high quality gasket. All piping and valves are of Stainless steel construction.
- Door(s): Door(s) are bottom hinged and fold down to provide a loading/unloading surface.
The system is also available in option of double door or double door with de- contamination seal panels i.e. Bio Seal Panels for preventing cross contamination.
