To limit the spread of disease through a facility, patients suspected of having diseases spread through the air must be placed in negative pressure rooms, airborne infection isolation rooms. Similarly, immune-compromised patients at risk of contracting diseases should stay in positive pressure, protective environment rooms. PRESSURA room pressure controls continuously monitor room pressure differential to comply with standards from the US Centers for Disease Control and American Institute of Architects.
These controllers, however, go a step beyond simple monitoring; they can adjust the airflow rates to correct problems as they occur, reducing incidents when the room pressure differential goes out of control.
The Model 8630-SC PresSura Room Pressure Controller is designed to maintain a constant room pressure differential in hospital rooms.
