Benefits

Ensures continuous operation during maintenance with duplex systems.
Easy installation and maintenance.
Reliable performance with factory testing.
Minimal pressure drop enhances plant performance.
Compatible with additional monitoring systems.

AGS Standards

Improvements in anaesthesia workstation designs have reduced gas flows, minimizing potential gas spillage. AGS system design standards have evolved to accommodate these changes. The BeaconMedæs AGS systems comply with HTM 2022, HTM 02-01, and ISO 7396-2 standards, allowing for adjustments to meet various performance requirements.

AGS Systems

The Anaesthetic Gas Scavenging (AGS) system actively removes anaesthetic gas mixtures from operating rooms, reducing health hazards for medical staff. It is compatible with any AGS receiver unit and can be adjusted to meet standards like BS 6834 and EN ISO 7396-2. The system is activated by remote switches for convenience.

Duplex or Simplex Systems

Duplex systems are recommended to ensure continuous operation in case of blower failure. Simplex systems are allowed, but HTM02-01 advises having a spare pump for immediate connection in case of failure.

Simplified System Schematic

The schematic illustrates the AGS disposal system, showing the flow from the operating suite to the control panel and the use of a simplex blower model.

Anaesthetic Gas Scavenging Systems HTM/ISO Brochure-2

AGS Systems The Anaesthetic Gas Scavenging (AGS) system is an active system which removes anaesthetic gas mixtures from operating rooms and any other areas fitted with nitrous oxide terminal units. The removal at source thus eliminates the possible long term health hazards to exposed medical staff. By virtue of its design, the active disposal system can produce high levels of capture simply by connecting the terminal unit to the anaesthetic breathing circuit via a receiver unit, thereby removing the majority of “pollution" at source. The AGS system is fully compatible with any AGS receiver unit...
