Maintain the RO-fed Autoclave washer

Client: Royal Worcestershire Hospital

Category: Hospital

In order to maintain the Autoclave washer, we provide a treated Reverse Osmosis water supply to disinfect high-temperature instruments in their TSSU (Theatre Sterile Surgical Unit). We established a duty standby system since RO water is crucial to the hospital’s operating theatre capability. Hot water for hospital workers and patients must be held at 60°C and 55°C within one minute of the outlets.

COMMON PROBLEMS:

  • High water hardness due to limescale build up
  • High chlorine levels which damage the RO membrane
  • Replacement RO membrane
  • Requires a certain grade of water e.g. below 5 micro-siemen

CATEGORY TREATMENT:

  • Remove the contaminants from the water with a quality RO system
  • Add a Kinetico Water Softener to prolong the life of the RO membrane by investing in a preventative maintenance solution
  • As a manufacture, supplier and installer, Kinetico have full control over product, costs, and don’t rely on third parties.
  • On-going maintenance support to ensure equipment lasts, giving added value to the customer
  • Retro-fit/bespoke solutions can be supplied to each dormitory, on-site gyms to individual shower facilities within buildings
