Hospital CSSD Vacuum Horizontal Autoclave Case Study in Peru | SADA Medical HA-BAV 100L Installation
Project Overview
A hospital in Peru upgraded its sterilization department by introducing the SADA Medical HA-BAV 100L vacuum horizontal autoclave for its CSSD workflow.
The goal was to improve sterilization consistency and support increasing surgical instrument processing demand.
Clinical Requirements
The hospital required a sterilization system that could handle:
- Wrapped surgical instruments
- Hollow and porous loads
- Daily high-volume CSSD operation
- Reliable sterilization validation records
Existing equipment was not providing stable drying performance and full cycle traceability.
Equipment Selected
Model: HA-BAV100 Vacuum Horizontal Autoclave
Capacity: 100L
System Type: Pulsed vacuum steam sterilizer
Key functions used in this project:
- 3+ pulse vacuum cycles for air removal
- Built-in steam generator
- 7-inch touchscreen control system
- Built-in printer for cycle records
- Bowie & Dick test function
- Double-layer stainless steel chamber
Why This Model Fits Hospital CSSD Use
1. Stable air removal performance
Pulse vacuum technology helps remove residual air before sterilization, improving steam penetration in:
- Wrapped instruments
- Hollow surgical tools
- Porous medical materials
2. Controlled sterilization process
The touchscreen control system allows preset programs for different load types, reducing manual operation errors in daily CSSD work.
3. Cycle traceability
Built-in printing records sterilization parameters for each cycle, supporting hospital documentation and internal audits.
4. Improved drying efficiency
The double-layer chamber structure helps reduce residual moisture after sterilization, improving instrument turnover time.
Delivery Status
The unit was manufactured, tested, and shipped to Peru after full factory inspection.
Before shipment, the following were completed:
- Functional sterilization cycle testing
- Pressure and temperature stability checks
- Operational video confirmation
- Export packaging and logistics preparation
Expected Outcome in Hospital Use
After implementation, the hospital CSSD is expected to achieve:
- More stable sterilization results
- Faster instrument processing workflow
- Improved drying consistency
- Better compliance with sterilization documentation requirements
