Re-commissioning AGS LEV annual

A facilities active anaesthetic gas scavenge system AAGSS requires re balancing under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations on an annual basis. As with equipment servicing it is better to include this option along with your PPM contract in order to best plan the works, especially as undertaking this task will require access to operating theatres, ITU/ICU, resuscitation and other high dependency areas. For this reason we can accommodate this work either out of hours or at weekends if required.

Medical Grade Air Purifier

In combination with our dMED medical air purification module, oil-injected screw air systems deliver medical air in compliance to the European Pharmacopoeia. The dMED comes pre-piped and wired in a fully duplexed package. It has a six-step purification process with a Hopcalite option that provides European Pharmacopeia compliant medical air. It is designed and manufactured according to the ISO 13485 Quality Management System. 

The purifiers comply with HTM 02-01/HTM 20-22 and are CE certified in accordance with the Medical Device Directive MDD 93/42/EEC.This pre-certification simplifies the organisation and inspection by regulatory bodies, saving the hospital time and money and reducing the risk of a rework of the system to satisfy requirements.

BeaconMedaes Anaesthetic Gas Scavenging System

The Anaesthetic Gas Scavenging System removes anesthetic gas mixtures in areas fitted with nitrous oxide terminal units like operating rooms. By virtue of its design, the active disposal system can produce high capture levels simply by connecting the terminal unit to the anesthetic breathing circuit via a receiver unit. This removal at the source eliminates the possible long term health hazards for the exposed medical staff. 

The most reliable Zone Service Unit

The ZSU2 Zone Service Unit used in both Medizone and Wallzone Area Valve Service Unit modules provides a zone isolation facility, for use either in an emergency or for maintenance purposes. It also provides a physical breakpoint to allow work to be safely carried out on the pipeline. NIST connections are positioned both up and down stream of the valve. These enable the facility to connect cylinder trolleys in the event of emergency, maintaining gas supply to the patient.

Ceiling pendant systems are supplied by BeaconMedæs for ITU`s, ICU`s and Operating Theaters alike. There are a wide range of arm lengths, load capacities and head sizes, which can be supplied in any combination to suit your particular requirements. Multi-movement arms allow the pendant heads to be lifted out of the way during procedures or for cleaning, and articulated arms allow the heads to be swopped over so that wet and dry sides may be exchanged in seconds. Pendant arms are equipped with pneumatic brakes, which prevent inadvertent movement of the arms during use. The unsurpassed quality of the bearings allows smooth operation for the life of the product without any maintenance necessary. Key Benefits at a glance:

• Cantilever and lateral Standard Duty or Heavy Duty arms options
• Range of arm lengths provide endless configurations to suit your work space requirements
• Fully customised to enable solutions for all areas such as OR and ITU
• CE certified and compliant to BS EN 60601-1 Safety Standards
• 330° degrees of rotation on each arm
• Cantilever vertical lift arm is designed to be fail-safe in the event of power failure
• Rotational stops are provided to ensure the pendant system is prevented from moving into walls or delicate equipment

BeaconMedaes and Medclair have announced an exciting new partnership that will totally change the way hospitals manage nitrous oxide (N2O).  BeaconMedaes is proud to be the sole UK supplier of Medclair’s unique Central Destruction Unit (CDU).  The low-energy unit provides sustainable gas cleaning of exhaled nitrous oxide, eliminating it by more than 99% by causing it to decompose rapidly into nitrogen and oxygen, the main components in air.  This means the surrounding environment is made safer for staff and patients without any reduction in the level of pain relief provided.

The CDU offers a wide range of benefits:

• Facilitates a healthy working environment for the personnel
• Effective pain treatment using an environmentally-friendly system
• Eliminates more than 99% of nitrous oxide entering the atmosphere
• Each unit can accommodate up to 12 rooms
• Low noise level and no vibrations
• Low energy consumption
• Monitoring through the web and/or on site
• Easy to install

Site Surveys

Our installation work starts before the engineers come to the site. When we receive a request to quote MGPS work, we will visit the site to ascertain what is needed and if any existing drawings are accurate, as well as compliance to current standards (HTM02-01). On-site surveys are essential where new pipe work is required, and our engineers will take measurements to include existing and proposed additional gas flow usage so that the correct pipe sizes are used in the job. Isometric drawings and plan drawings are used to extrapolate all possible components of the installation for accurate material planning and pricing. In addition, we take into account any proposed future expansion, in order to save client costs going forward and to future proof the MGPS.

Installing MGPS and Project Management

Our knowledge is derived from many years of experience in MGPS. Should you require a project team to manage an installation, or just work cost effectively with a contractor, our installation team are nationally renowned to provide systems of the highest standard. Our Project Manager will produce the necessary Scope of Works and Risk Assessments for approval by the hospital AP (MGPS) or Project Manager, and monitor the progress of the project at all times to ensure projects are delivered safely, on budget and on time.

Testing and Commissioning

All medical gas pipeline systems installations are tested by BeaconMedaes prior to requesting the Hospital Pharmacist or other appointed Quality Control authority to undergo a final check and purity test to HTM 02-01 standard. Our procedures for this follow strict guidelines to ensure that the system is Patient ready. The hospital AP will then take responsibility for the management of the system. The AP knows that BeaconMedaes has provided the best-in-class products supported by high-level installers, maintainers and support staff and backed by a quality assured guarantee.
