From hospital laundries to cleanrooms

MediStream takes hygiene and cleanliness to a whole new level.

The GRP covers assure that the Mediwave can be used in even the strictest environments but with the Mediwave, Lapauw takes hygiene further than the skin.

With the Medistream, Lapauw presents the first 100% cleanroom dryer in the industry. Thanks to innovative features like smart emplacement of the filters and a completely isolated drum, the Medistream answers to the high standards in hygiene and separation that is adopted by the cleanroom laundry industry.

Maximum separation between clean and non-clean

The Medistream is the first dryer on the market that has the drum fully encased in a closed box. This assures maximal separation between the cleanroom and the exterior.

The Medistream has a cantilevered drum, which excludes particle contamination from the drive wheels. Drive wheels are commonly used in dryers but are a source of particle contamination.

Heating elements have proven to be an often overlooked but mayor source of particle contamination. This is why the Medistream has a high-temperature H13 HEPA filter mounted behind the heating element. A G4 pre-filter is mounted at the air intake, in front of the heating unit and complements the filter system.

GRP – The Next Level In Hygiene

Where hygiene and cleanliness are involved, traceability is paramount. The Siemens microprocessor control system allows you to log and store all relevant parameters per individual washing cycle, from temperatures to water levels and cycle times.

The Medistream also has a GRP cover. Next to the smooth, washable surface, the GRP cover on the Medistream offers another important advantage: the cover is mounted on the dryer, which adds another barrier and offers a perfect base for the control buttons and panel to be mounted on without the risk of air leaks.

Optimizing Efficiency

The Medistream drum has a volume of 1400 liters. In the typical cleanroom 1/35 – 1/40 fill rations, this size is a perfect match with the Mediwave range.

The Medistream offers an air flow of 4000 m³/hr. The airflow through the drum is diagonal, which maximizes air to fabric contact and increases drying efficiency.
