ETO (Ethylene Oxide)
Project Details
Hello from Raymond Korea. Today: ethylene oxide (EtO / ETO) leak detection for hospital sterilizers treating endoscopes and surgical tools. Most sterilizers inject EtO; if it escapes the vessel it is acutely hazardous.
Typical systems pair an EtO cylinder with the sterilizer cabinet. When the cycle starts, the solenoid opens and gas flows into the chamber.
We mounted FIX800 EtO sensors to catch leaks during charging. Sterilizers usually sit in small enclosed rooms, so continuous monitoring is mandatory.
The display shows real-time EtO. When concentration exceeds the setpoint, the integrated beacon provides audible and visual alarms. Thank you for reading this hospital EtO case study.
