VHP (Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide) H2O2 Pass Box

What is a Cleanroom VHP Pass Box?

The VHP pass box serves as a crucial tool for transferring small items between clean areas, as well as between non-clean areas and clean areas. Its primary function is to minimize the number of door openings within the clean room, thereby reducing the risk of contamination in clean areas. VHP pass boxes find extensive applications in various settings such as micro-technology, biological laboratories, pharmaceutical factories, hospitals, and food processing plants.

Sterilization technology employed in VHP pass boxes utilizes a unique flash evaporation system. This system ensures the uniform distribution of VHP liquid within the cavity, optimizing the evaporation process. As a result, it achieves higher and more stable VHP gas concentrations, greatly enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of sterilization.

To achieve a complete seal, the VHP pass box incorporates advanced sealing technology. It features a stainless steel frame with double-layer 5mm tempered glass doors. A silicone inflatable sealing strip is utilized to seal the pass box, ensuring airtight closure. The adoption of insulating double-layer glass also enhances the pass box’s thermal insulation performance.

  7. Slightly positive working pressure: Maintains a slight positive pressure inside the pass box for optimal performance.
  8. Sterilization process
    1. Preparation stage: place items, close the warehouse door.
    2. Condition stage: turn on the dehumidifier, turn on the heater of the sterilizer (automatic switch according to the set temperature), judge that the current humidity of the equipment is ≤ 25% , and the conditions are met to go to the next stage.
    3. Pre-sterilization stage: turn on the peristaltic pump, quickly increase the cavity concentration.
    4. Sterilization stage: turn on the peristaltic pump, enter a small amount of H2O2 to make the concentration reach saturation.
    5. Maintain stage: turn off the peristaltic pump and heater, (time control) .
    6. Ventilation stage: open the air intake and exhaust, control the cavity pressure, when the pressure is stable, the exhaust air can be opened to the maximum.

VHP Concentration/Time Schematic:

  • Entry Phase (Humidification): VHP concentration starts to increase rapidly.
  • Boost Phase (Adjustment): VHP concentration rapidly reaches sterilizing conditions.
  • Hold Phase (Sterilization): VHP concentration gradually decays, allowing it to be maintained for a specific duration.
  • Residual Removal Stage (Ventilation): VHP concentration in the air is displaced, decomposing into residual free water and oxygen.
  • In the whole sterilization process, the size of the sterilization to be sterilized, gas concentration, humidity, temperature, biological indicator sterilization curve and time, all affect the sterilization cycle, so according to the site conditions, we need to develop a series of parameters , to provide customers with the best parameters, thus saving time and operating costs.
  • Compared with traditional sterilization methods, VHP sterilization has the following technical characteristics:
  • Low temperature sterilization process (4-80℃)
  • Very little residue after the sterilization process (no need to clean again)
  • No Toxic By-Products After Evacuation (Health & Safety)
  • The process is very easy to verify, and each link is controllable (compound regulatory requirements, easy to control)
  • Environmental Protection (Health & Safety & Environmental Protection)
  • Good penetration to high efficiency filters
