TRESA CIH
Filtration and UV-C treatment in one cabinet for multi-analyzer effluent
A compact decontamination unit for the highly concentrated and non-concentrated effluent of biochemistry, immunoassay and hematology analyzers. Active-carbon filtration reduces chemical reagents and three UV-C lamps inactivate pathogens, treating up to 120 L/h.
- Treatment capacity
- 120 L/h
- UV-C lamps
- 3 × 95 W
- Carbon filtration
- 10 µm
- Weight
- 50 kg
Designed for
- Clinical chemistry and immunoassay laboratories
- Hematology laboratories
- Hospital laboratories
- Private diagnostic and IVD laboratories
- Central and reference laboratories
- Medical facilities requiring controlled management of laboratory effluent
Key features
- Two treatment stages, chemical and bacteriological, in one compact cabinet
- Effluent collecting tank and separate treatment tank
- Active-carbon filter (10 µm)
- Closed-loop circulation through 3 × 95 W UV-C lamps
- PLC control with touch display and process monitoring
- Direct analyzer effluent connection (plug & run); 230 V supply, no other utilities
- Fits next to the analyzer
- Quarterly filter cartridge change; yearly service
Treatment process
Filtration + UV-C. Filtration reduces selected chemical contaminants before UV-C treatment provides microbial inactivation.
Collection
Concentrated and non-concentrated effluent from the analyzer flows into the collecting tank.
Chemical filtration
Active-carbon filtration (10 µm) removes most of the chemical reagents in the effluent.
Treatment tank
Filtered effluent collects in a separate treatment tank, ready for UV-C processing.
UV-C treatment
Closed-loop circulation through three 254 nm UV-C lamps inactivates microorganisms.
Discharge
Treated effluent is discharged to an approved drain or sewer connection, subject to local requirements.

Request product informationTRESA CIH questions
Which analyzers can TRESA CIH serve?
Up to three biochemistry, immunoassay or hematology analyzers, treating both concentrated and non-concentrated effluent.
How does TRESA CIH treat the effluent?
Active-carbon filtration (10 µm) reduces chemical reagents, then closed-loop circulation through three 95 W, 254 nm UV-C lamps inactivates microorganisms.
What maintenance does TRESA CIH need?
The filter cartridge is changed every quarter and the unit is serviced once a year.
