Trophon Features and Benefits

Features and Benefits

Trophon® EPR is a complete ultrasound probe disinfection system that’s fast, easy to use, environmentally friendly and quality-assured.

Achieving fast, safe, high-level disinfection of ultrasound probes is critical.

However, many common methods of disinfecting ultrasound probes have serious disadvantages.

Topical sprays and most disinfecting wipes cannot achieve high-level disinfection of ultrasound probes.

Immersion procedures require expensive equipment such as ventilation hoods to deal with toxic neutralising chemicals. In addition, the user must wear personal protection equipment which all equates to extremely time consuming and potentially hazardous working conditions.

Ultrasound probe covers may sometimes leak or perforate and do not always offer adequate protection.

Trophon® EPR is a complete ultrasound probe disinfection system that’s fast, easy to use, environmentally-friendly and quality-assured.

Developed by Nanosonics Limited, this unique technology achieves high-level disinfection of the probe – including the shaft and handle – in just seven minutes.

	High-level disinfection technology	High-level disinfection Nanosonics’ unique patented disinfection technology generates a hydrogen peroxide mist ensuring high-level disinfection.
	Fast, seven-minute process	Fast, seven-minute process Trophon EPR achieves high-level disinfection of the probe – including the shaft and handle – in just seven minutes, maximising your productivity. Simply place the pre-cleaned probe and a chemical indicator disk in the chamber, close the system and press the start button.
	Quality-assured consistency of process	Quality-assured consistency Unique sensor technology validates each disinfection cycle is completed as specified. The in-process chemical indicator provides further assurance of high-level disinfection.
	Environmentally friendly by-products: water and oxygen	Environmentally-friendly by-products: water and oxygen Small quantities of water and oxygen are generated as primary by-products. There are no toxic waste or residues.
	No exposure to harmful chemicals	No exposure to harmful chemicals The disinfection cycle takes place in a fully automated, closed system, so you and your patients are never exposed to toxic, harmful chemicals.
	Cartridge replacement is a clean and easy process	Quick and easy cartridge replacement Open the side door, remove the empty NanoNebulant† cartridge and insert a new cartridge. The recyclable cartridges can be disposed with standard waste.
