- Description
- The goal of the field sterilizer program is to test and evaluate a readily available modernized steam sterilizer with improved sterilization effectiveness that meets the needs of field hospitals. The sterilizer will be an electrically operated, large chamber steam sterilizer for use in (1) the Central Materiel Section of Combat Support Hospitals (CSHs) to sterilize supplies (e.g., surgical instruments, dressings) used in surgical procedures and other casualty care in the operating room, emergency treatment area, and intensive care units, and (2) the Area Medical Laboratory (AML) to sterilize pathological specimens prior to disposal. Modernization features will include a vacuum cycle and electronic controls for automatic sequencing of sterilizer controls and recording of process conditions. The Steam Sterilizer, Field Portable (SSFP) is to be used by field medical treatment facilities and therefore must be rugged enough to withstand the rigors of deployment and a variety of austere locations and environments in addition to meeting performance characteristics required in fixed facilities. The sterilizer must be cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to enable use in hospitals. This will require Boiler and Pressure Vessel certification of the sterilizer design and manufacturing facility by the American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME). All communications shall be submitted to the Contracting Office at scott.comeau@us.army.mil by Close of Business on 13 June 2013.
