What are the sterilizer's dimensions?
The CPAC RapidHeat RH-Pro11 HVHA Sterilizer features a spacious and flexible design to accommodate various instrument loads.
- Chamber Dimensions (D x W x H): 17.75” x 11” x 11.75” (433 mm x 279 mm x 299 mm)
- Exterior Dimensions (D x W x H): 22.5” x 22.5” x 19.5” (572 mm x 572 mm x 495 mm)
The internal chamber provides 2294 cubic inches (approximately 38 liters or 10 gallons) of usable space. It comes with four removable instrument trays, each measuring 15” (D) x 9” (W) x 1” (H), and can hold up to six large instrument trays per cycle.
What are the sterilization cycle durations?
The CPAC RapidHeat RH-Pro11 HVHA Sterilizer offers a range of efficient sterilization cycles:
- High-Temperature Cycles (375°F / 190°C):
- Unwrapped Instruments: 6 minutes
- Hand pieces/Drills: 8 minutes
- Wrapped Instruments: 12 minutes
- Low-Temperature Cycles:
- 320°F: 42 minutes
- 300°F: 58 minutes
- 280°F: 126 minutes
Additionally, there is a 30-minute cycle at 175°F specifically for N95 FFR Mask Decontamination. This unit utilizes High-Velocity Hot Air (HVHA), which is a waterless method, preventing instrument corrosion and extending their lifespan.
Does the sterilizer use waterless technology?
Yes, the CPAC RapidHeat RH-Pro11 is a completely waterless sterilization system. It utilizes High-Velocity Hot Air (HVHA) technology instead of steam or water, which offers significant advantages for instrument care.
Key benefits of this waterless system include:
- Non-Corrosive: Eliminating moisture and chemicals creates a non-corrosive environment that prevents instrument corrosion and prolongs their functional life.
- Efficiency: It requires no drying time and allows for the fastest FDA-cleared turnaround times (as fast as six minutes for unwrapped instruments).
- Energy Savings: The HVHA technology also makes the unit highly energy efficient, using 85% less energy than steam sterilizers.
What is the chamber and tray capacity?
The CPAC RapidHeat RH-Pro11 offers a generous and flexible capacity for sterilization:
- Chamber Capacity: It features a 2,294 cubic inch (10 gal / 38 L) chamber with dimensions of 17.75” (D) x 11” (W) x 11.75” (H).
- Instrument Trays: The sterilizer includes four removable instrument trays, each measuring 15” (D) x 9” (W) x 1” (H). It can accommodate up to six large instrument trays per cycle, or up to 8 small or 4 large cassettes.
Who is the ideal customer for this sterilizer?
The CPAC RapidHeat RH-Pro11 HVHA Sterilizer is an ideal solution for a range of professional environments due to its efficiency and advanced features:
- High-Volume Clinical Environments: It’s perfect for settings that require rapid instrument turnaround.
- Dental Offices: Enhances infection control and efficiency for dental practices.
- Microsurgical Centers: Provides precise and quick sterilization, crucial for delicate instruments.
This sterilizer is designed for those prioritizing fast, waterless, and non-corrosive sterilization cycles to optimize instrument readiness and extend product life.
Is the sterilizer highly energy efficient?
The sterilizer is exceptionally energy efficient due to its High-Velocity Hot Air (HVHA) technology. Because this unit uses a waterless sterilization method, it eliminates the high energy consumption associated with generating steam and prolonged drying cycles. In fact, the RH-Pro11 uses 85% less energy compared to conventional steam sterilization methods.
What are the temperature settings for sterilization?
The sterilizer operates at a high temperature of 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for rapid cycles. It also offers lower temperature sterilization options at 320 degrees F, 300 degrees F, and 280 degrees F for specific needs, and 175 degrees F for N95 mask decontamination.
