SAHARA-III

Product catalog summary

Overview: The SAHARA-III is a dry tempering system designed for the safe and efficient warming of blood components. It prevents contamination risks associated with water baths and ensures hygienic conditions by actively drying the bag surface. The system controls the temperatures of the warming plate and ambient air to protect blood products from damage.

Key Features:

Standardized Procedure: Offers a standardized thawing and warming process with a delayed key reaction to prevent accidental process abortion.
Temperature Monitoring: Utilizes contactless infrared sensors to measure blood component temperature, displaying it from 29°C to 37°C in 1°C increments. Documentation is facilitated by a protocol printer.
Blood Bag Agitation: Gentle agitation ensures a homogeneous temperature profile within the blood bag, preventing damage.
Fast Tempering Function: Rapid thawing and warming at a constant ambient temperature of 37°C, accommodating different blood components and filling volumes simultaneously.
Integrated System Test: Includes device function checks and temperature sensor calibration without additional apparatus, with documentation via a protocol printer.
Modular Design: Features modules like the warming plate for accelerated processes, MAXITHERM for increased capacity, and an infusion warmer for items like infusion solutions and instruments.
Hygienic Alternative: Addresses microbial contamination risks from exogenous germs originating from various sources, emphasizing the importance of a clean environment during blood component warming.

Technical Specifications:

Dimensions: 320 mm x 325 mm x 493 mm
Weight: Basic model: 13.7 kg; MAXITHERM: 13.4 kg
Rated Voltage: Basic model: 230 V AC; MAXITHERM: 230 V AC
Frequency: 50 - 60 Hz
Power Consumption: Basic model: 530 W; MAXITHERM: 400 W
Temperature Accuracy: Max. ±4% at 37°C
Ambient Conditions: 5 - 30°C, max. 85% relative humidity
Protection Class: Class I

Ordering Information: Various models and accessories are available, including the basic model, MAXITHERM, stainless steel tray, infusion warmer module, protocol printer module, and more.

Maintenance: The system requires minimal maintenance, with functionality checks and sensor calibration performed via the integrated system test.

The hygienic alternative Medical staff Contamination of the blood bag with exogeneous pathogens What are the causes for a microbial contamination of blood components by exogenous germs? Exogenous bacteria originate from the blood donator‘s skin, from water, air, the blood bag material or the environment, but also from the medical personnel‘s hands. They can be inoculated during blood collection or during preparation and storage of blood components. While the blood components are processed, mechanical forces may cause small cracks within the bags (mainly within frozen bags). These cracks subsequently...
