How water treatment works
A demineralized water production system for sterile processing combines several components. The DGSV expert committee explains the individual processing stages in recommendation no. 17. These include filters, ion exchangers, reverse osmosis systems, membrane degassing, electro-deionization systems (EDI), mixed bed exchangers and a tank for the finished demineralized water. Monitor water parameters at various points in the process to ensure that readings meet the correct limits. Redundant system design and a bypass system in case of emergency ensure that operations continue smoothly even in the event of failures.
Achieving optimal water quality with HeylNeomeris
To bring an existing water treatment system up to the latest state of the art, a comprehensive analysis is first required. This requires consideration of many factors, from the water source to the operating personnel. An independent expert company can carry out this analysis to identify weaknesses and suggest improvements. The aim is to make optimal use of existing systems and to incorporate new technologies or specialist companies as required. Such adjustments can be made in both large hospitals and smaller clinics.
Legal certainty in processing? Only with up-to-date water treatment!
In summary, it can be said that the limit values of DIN EN 285 for water treatment in steam sterilization are no longer up to date. They can lead to instrument damage and high operating costs, which in turn affects the safety of processes and thus legal certainty in medical facilities. The DGSV expert committee is setting new, up-to-date limit values. Find out about the necessary adjustments in your facility, because legally compliant reprocessing requires compliance with current standards.
| Parameter | DIN EN 285, Table B 1 for pure steam generators | DGSV Technical Committee 2022 |
| Conductivity at 25°C | ≤ 5 µS/cm | ≤ 0.1 µS/cm |
| Silicate | ≤ 1 mg/l | ≤ 0.4 mg/l |
In medical facilities, the quality of the water used for the reprocessing of medical devices is of the utmost importance. Safe and reliable water treatment is essential to ensure that instruments are cleaned, disinfected and sterilized properly and to maintain their value, along with that of the equipment.
We at HeylNeomeris offer customized solutions for the water treatment process in hospitals.
