SYSTEM15 Medical Waste Processors from SteriMed

The SYSTEM15 is a fully automated medical waste processor that simultaneously shreds and disinfects clinical and medical waste; reducing its volume by up to 90 percent, and rendering it non-infectious by using an EPA-registered disinfectant. The SYSTEM15 can process medical waste, including sharps, clinical waste bags, dialysis filters, surgical waste, suction canisters, surgical tubing, tissues, organic waste, whole blood units, glass and labware. The compact SYSTEM15 is designed especially for easy, plug-n-play installation within existing soiled linen or biohazardous waste storage rooms. With an automatic cycle of 15 minutes, the System15 is the fastest medical waste processor in the industry.

The SYSTEM15 incorporates non-incineration, CleanAir chemical disinfection technology. The SYSTEM15 has been validated and approved as a STAATT Level III compliant treatment technology. The SYSTEM15 uses an EPA-registered disinfectant for safe and effective on-site waste treatment. The SYSTEM15 is the smaller, more compact model within the SteriMed product line of medical waste processors. The SYSTEM15 also incorporates a disposable filter bag which is used to automatically dewater the shredded waste in the waste drawer of the unit prior to disposal.
