Negative isolation fan

The mobile vacuum chamber achieves 99.9 percent decon­t­a­m­i­na­tion. This makes it easy to convert any key hospital facility into an isola­tion area. The inno­v­a­tive units can be set up as a nega­tive pres­sure chamber in any space. “We wanted to develop a ‘plug-and-play’ solu­tion that is easy to set up and remove so that addi­tional capacity can be created quickly and without any modi­fi­ca­tions,” says Dr Marcus Tan, Clin­ical Inno­va­tion Manager at The Biofac­tory. This time, the inno­va­tion is a portable, prefab­ri­cated nega­tive pres­sure chamber that is easy to install. For more than a decade, the company has been Singapore’s leading inno­vator for high-quality biomed­ical tech­nolo­gies.

There­fore, the research and devel­op­ment team at The Biofac­tory has devel­oped a mobile solu­tion. However, with high number of infec­tions, there are not enough existing rooms. Nega­tive pres­sure isola­tion rooms are one option to ensure the safety of both patients and medical personnel. Infec­tion control in hospi­tals has become an impor­tant topic over the past two years.
