Infection Control – DSU-H Ice Machine Filter
With the risk of hospital-associated infections and their associated costs on the rise, Nephros FDA Cleared Filters are an important addition to aid in infection control. One of the Critical Control Points in a hospital’s water management plan is ice machines. Nephros’ proprietary hollow fiber membrane ultrafilter effectively retains bacteria and viruses found in water. The water permeability of the membrane is more than double that of membranes with comparable pore size, thus providing efficient flow performance relative to the physical size of the filter. The DSU-H’s dual-stage design provides redundancy and up to 6 months of protection in a self-contained unit.
