Increase your safety with the new BeaconMedaes and Atlas Copco Anaesthetic Gas Scavenge system

Main improvements are increased safety and user friendliness. By removing anaesthetic gas at the source, safety is improved. Additionaly, user friendliness is enhanced by reducing footprint and installation time, while providing better usablility and easy maintenance.

The Anaesthetic Gas Scavenge System removes anaesthetic 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 anaesthetic breathing circuit via a receiver unit.  This removal at the source eliminates the possible long term health hazards for the exposed medical staff.

When designing the AGS plant, particular emphasis was placed on user friendliness.  By introducing a robust skid mounted frame with improved component layout, several benefits are offered.  Next to reduced footprint, the controls are placed on a user convenient height.  Easy access of the components, results in improved usablity and faster maintenance.  The flow regulating valve is now adjustable from the outside, being placed on either side of the unit.  The duplex units also allow servicing of one of the pumps, while the other remains operationable.  Remote switches of the AGS can be installed at any convenient location either in or close to the operating and anaesthetic room.  BeaconMedaes’ terminal units incorporate an adjustable orifice, which enables the flow to be adjusted to any standard including BS 6834 and EN ISO 7396 systems.

The BeaconMedaes AGS system meets the requirements of UK Department of Health, offering our customers long lasting peace of mind.  The removal of anaesthetic gas at the source, coupled with superior controls, easy installation and maintenance make the Anaesthetic Gas Scavenge plant simple and safe.
