Ethylene Oxide with CO2 Gas Sterilization/ Eto Sterilizers

EO sterilizers ethylene oxide gas

Ethylene Oxide Processing

Ethylene oxide (also known as EO or EtO) is a low temperature gaseous process widely used to sterilize a variety of healthcare products, such as single-use medical devices. Through the use of a vacuum-based process, EO sterilization can efficiently penetrate surfaces of most medical devices and its lower temperature makes it an ideal process for a wide variety of materials.

What is Ethylene Oxide Processing?

Ethylene oxide sterilization consists of four primary variables:

• Gas concentration
• Humidity
• Temperature
• Time

Packaging & Delivery of our EO sterilizers ethylene oxide gas
Packaging Details: Bases on customer's request .
Delivery Time: 25-30 days after PO and deposit confirmed

EO is suitable for the sterilization of a wide range of materials not compatible with other methods of sterilization. Products commonly processed with ethylene oxide include:

• Assembled complex devices
• Catheters
• Custom procedure packs
• Equipment with integrated electronics
• Multi-lumen tubing products
• Stents
• Wound care dressings

What are the Benefits of Ethylene Oxide Processing?

• Materials sterilized with EO are not exposed to excessive heat, moisture, or radiation. Therefore, a wide variation of materials, particularly polymeric components commonly used in medical devices, can be sterilized with EO. Material compatibility is described in AAMI TIR 17 (compatibility of materials subject to sterilization).
• Products can be sterilized in their final packaging, since EO will permeate the sealed films and cartons used to package the device.
