SANITARY LAUNDRY AND CLEANROOMS

Where are cleanrooms used?

What is a clean room in a hospital?
In recent years, in hospitals and laboratories, the number of such rooms has increased sharply for various reasons. They are found in operating theaters, cytostatic and parenteral preparation rooms in the pharmacy department, rooms and boxes for infectious and immunocompromised patients, neonatology departments, intensive and burn care units, transplants, fertilization laboratories assisted, microbiology laboratories, etc.
What is a sanitary barrier washer?
A sanitary barrier washer is a washing machine with a double door system, for loading and unloading laundry, designed to be installed through a partition. It has a front door, where dirty laundry is loaded and a rear door where clean and sanitized laundry is unloaded. This avoids cross contamination between garments.
What investment does the purchase of a sanitary barrier washer represent?
Danube offers three different ranges of barrier washers to meet the needs of all types of customers. Each of them, moreover, can be equipped with various options to adapt to each situation. Load capacities range from 16 to 90 kg, so investment may vary depending on capacity and options.
It is very important to choose the most suitable machine for each case and, in this regard, our sales department will be happy to advise you throughout the process.
How to choose a sanitary barrier washer?
A barrier washer should be selected based on the volume of daily work and the structure of the room.
With regard to capacity, it is very important to identify the number of kilos per hour that must be processed. For example, a sanitary laundry that needs to process 10 kg/h, the MED-16 model would be convenient. But if the quantity to be treated exceeds 30 kg/h, it would take two.
Which dryers are best suited for a clean room?
The DANUBE DD-SILVER dryer is the ideal partner for our barrier washers for cleanrooms. We can equip it with a long list of cleanroom-specific accessories: AISI 304 panels (including top and base), side lint filter, AISI 304 stainless steel inner door, pre-installation for HEPA filter (including fan + adapter), AISI 304 stainless steel HEPA 13 filter, AISI 304 stainless steel HEPA 14 filter, AISI 304 stainless steel drum, AISI 316L stainless steel drum, electropolished AISI 316L stainless steel drum and automatic non-return valve.
How much does a cleanroom dryer cost?
Danube cleanroom dryers are among the most competitive and efficient on the market. Configuring a cleanroom dryer means adding AISI-304 or AISI-316L stainless steel options, depending on specific needs. For this reason, the investment is much greater than a standard dryer and must be perfectly adapted to the requirements of the laundry in question.
INDUSTRIAL WASHERS AND DRYERS
What is an industrial washer?
An industrial washer is identical to a domestic washing machine, but with important nuances. Industrial washing machines offer greater resistance, have better components and higher load capacities, because they are designed to operate practically every day and at all times of the year.
How long does an industrial washer take to wash?
The average duration of washing cycles in an industrial washer is one hour. It always depends on the capacity of the machine, the types of clothes or the program used.
How big is an industrial washer?
The dimensions of an industrial washer always vary according to its capacity. An 11 kg washing machine does not look like a 120 kg washer. The largest one has a height of more than 2 m.
How much does an industrial washer weigh?
As in the previous case, the weight depends on its capacity. It can oscillate between 230 and 4000 kg.
How many liters of water does an industrial washer consume?
At Danube, we have always opted for the development of environmentally friendly and sustainable machines. Our washing machines incorporate, by default, ecological programs thanks to the new ET2, with advanced efficiency features, which allow us to obtain the lowest consumption on the market, such as for example 7 liters for the WED-27 model. In addition, they can be connected to the AQUABAC water recovery tank, with which 70% annual savings in water and detergent are achieved.

HOTEL LAUNDRY
