HELPS YOUR FACILITY CONTROL ▶SAFETYCOSTSWASTE

Confines liquid infectious waste

Reduces splashing + aerosolization risk

Reduces medical waste hauling cost

Eliminates exposure risk + solidifier costs

Meets OSHA, EPA, CDC, NIOSH Guidance

Eliminates electricity use and costs

The Bemis Quick-Drain System provides an efficient solution to help facilities control safety and costs associated with the disposal of infectious liquid waste. The closed system disposes liquid waste into the sanitary sewer at 500cc/sec. The built in rinse feature may allow disposal of the canister or liner into white bag trash, depending on state or local guidelines.

With its durable design and minimal upkeep requirements, Quick-Drain offers years of reliable performance to increase safety and significantly reduce total cost of ownership associated with regulated medical waste disposal. The Bemis Quick-Drain System is available in configurations for both rigid Hi-Flow Suction Canisters and Quick-Fit Liners.

FLUID + WASTE MANAGEMENT SOLUTION

Control Safety

Provide safeguards to protect staff

  • Engineering controlled operation confines liquid infectious waste by isolating harmful pathogens
  • Closed system disposal substantially reduces risk of staff exposure due to splashing and aerosolization
  • Eliminates risks associated with solidifier chemical exposure
  • Complies with the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Standard and EPA, CDC and NIOSH Guidelines*

Control Costs

Reduce associated waste disposal expenses

  • Where regulations allow, dispose of rinsed canisters in regular trash instead of red bag
  • Where red bag disposal is required, empty canisters significantly reduce regulated medical waste hauling cost
  • Eliminates per-use solidifier costs
  • Greatly reduces infectious waste disposal costs allowing for the recoup of Quick-Drain investment in a matter of months, with continued long-term savings

Control Waste

Protect the environment

  • A sustainable solution designed to remove the need for solidifiers and infectious waste hauling
  • No electricity required to operate

SAVING MONEY ON LIQUID MEDICAL WASTE DISPOSAL IS AS SIMPLE AS...

Take filled suction canisters to Quick-Drain installed in existing utility room. System is low-profile with a small wall space footprint.
NO electricity needed. System empties canisters at 500cc/second using water pressure to create a vacuum.
Engage rinse, then discard empty canisters — Saves red bag waste hauling costs due to ~90% less weight and no solidifier.

Installation ▶

The Quick-Drain System connects to existing plumbing and requires wall space of only 36in W x 60in H. Units are low-profile at 15in deep, for minimal clearance area. Simple installation requirements:

  • Wall capable of supporting 150 lb. static load.
  • 1/2" water line with a minimum of 40 psi pressure.
  • Connection for a 1" PVC pipe to sanitary sewer.
  • Backflow preventer for input water line.
