LC 80

High-Capacity Trolley Washer Disinfector

LC 80 is a high-capacity washer-disinfector for the treatment of instrument containers and lids, plastic crates, basins, and surgical instruments. The device can also treat, case carts, transport-, storage-, and waste-trolleys or other bulky items with dedicated racks. The combination of high flow recirculation pumps and high-speed blowers for forced air drying provides the washer with high-performance cleaning and disinfection treatment with short cycle times ensuring high throughput.

LC 80 can be equipped with a full visibility double HST glass door sliding door or a stainless steel hinged door. Available as single door or double door pass-through versions, this latter version is suitable for barrier installation to reduce cross-contamination by separating dirty areas from clean ones. With LC 80 Trolley Washer Disinfector, you can choose two different chamber depths: the 2250 mm / 88.58″ and 3000 mm / 118.11″, according to your cleaning demand. A PLC microprocessor with a user-friendly HMI allows operators to refine the process and personalize the washing and disinfection programs.

Hygienic Design

Thanks to its state-of-the-art hydraulic design, with separate circuits for washing and rinsing with dedicated pumps (only for chemical and hybrid versions), the best washing results are guaranteed with minimum water and energy consumption. High-quality stainless steel washing chamber with multiple horizontal oscillating pipes on each side equipped with numerous spraying nozzles ensuring the complete and optimal washing of the loads.

Automatic Manifold Connection

Automatic Manifold Connection is an exclusive patented solution that allows the load of trolleys equipped with washing arms or washing injection systems. This unique option permits the validated treatment of surgical instruments and items with hollow surfaces, extending the trolley washer function range by making it a flexible device that can face CSSD throughput peaks as well as being used as a safe productivity backup.

Unparalled Load Capacity

LC 80 has unmatched load capacity and can reprocess up to 56 instrument trays per cycle in the 3000mm chamber length version and up to 28 in the standard version. Thanks to dedicated loading trolleys it is possible to load up to 80 clogs in the 3000mm chamber length version and up to 40 in the standard version making LC 80 the washer-disinfector with the greatest throughput available in the market.

7" Intuitive HMI

A Control System with a PLC touch screen panel constantly monitors and displays the current cycle status and alarms, allowing for 65 programming options. The user-friendly 7″ color touchscreen supports operators in every step of their interaction with the device with straightforward and easy-to-understand operation tasks.

Double Configuration

Thermal Disinfection

Faster water loading phases granting more time for the process;
Suitable for the treatment of transport, storage, and waste trolleys up to 93°C / 200F, treating instrument containers and lids, plastic crates, or other bulky items with dedicated presentation rack;
In compliance with UNI EN ISO 15883-1/2.

Chemical Disinfection

Improved process efficiency by eliminating carry over in the rinsing phase, assuring complete disinfection with a very short cycle time;
Suitable for reliable cleaning to items typically treated without a validated process, from hospital furniture and medicinal transport trolleys to bed heads, clogs, and wheelchairs;
In compliance with UNI EN ISO 15883-1/6.

Automations

According to the customer’s needs, it is possible to install LC 80 with different systems for the automatic loading and unloading of loads. Multiple solutions are available using rolls, belts, or hooks.

Lifting Platforms

The need for a deep pit has always been a binding requirement for installing a trolley washing cabinet, particularly in renovation projects of existing sterilization plants. Steelco “Lifting Platforms” assure the same ergonomics and operator safety as a pit-installed washer-disinfector but with a reduced pit or without the need of a pit, ensuring easy installation, Ergonomics, and safety. All the risks connected to handling a heavy-loaded washing trolley on inclined loading ramps are thus avoided.

Key Features

Environmental Sustainability

In addition to saving water, LC 80 efficient recovery system saves energy and chemicals. Depending on the configuration of the machine, it is possible to install more water and energy recovery systems, making the most of its capabilities.

Optimal Cleaning

Multiple horizontal oscillating pipes equipped with spraying nozzles on each washing chamber side ensure optimal wash surface coverage.

Effective Thermal-Disinfection

Thermal disinfection is achieved by raising the temperature to 93°C/200°F and holding it for a programmable time. It is also possible to directly set the desired A0 value.

Smart Filtering System

Three-level water filtration system allows for the capture of residues during the recirculation of the washing filter thanks to flush self-cleaning final filter, thus avoiding the risk of clogging and protecting the recirculation point.

Drying Efficacy

Built-In HEPA 14 filtered forced air drying system ensuring the complete internal and external drying of all the glassware. Adjustable time and temperature settings for the optimization of cycle duration and energy consumption.

Traceability

USB port printer connection for machine data backup. Remote monitoring and data management with the optional SteelcoData traceability software.

The Fast Cycle Concept

Unrivaled levels of efficiency, energy, and water consumption reduction, significantly reducing the cycle time to handle peak work and optimizing operating costs per load: our Fast Cycle Concept is a unique technology assisting your goals toward environmental sustainability, with over 54.000 liters of yearly water saving (with average use). The total customization of the cycle management allows personalizing the “Fast Cycle” technology according to your needs.
