Durable chamber construction to support consistent sterilization performance and long-term reliability.

The Ventipro is built for durability and compliance in demanding pharmaceutical environments. A fully 316L stainless steel construction and precision-finished chamber surfaces support reliable cleanability and long-term corrosion resistance. High-performance fans drive the steam-air mixture through the chamber and around the load for precise, uniform temperature distribution. Thoughtful hygienic design minimizes contamination risk while reducing maintenance requirements, helping ensure consistent performance and extended service life.

The chamber vessel and door are constructed entirely from 316L stainless steel with no dissimilar metals, eliminating corrosion risk and ensuring long-term durability and cleanability in regulated production environments. Precision machined brackets retain the door on all four sides for smooth, consistent travel and a secure seal every cycle.

All process piping and fittings are constructed from 316L stainless steel with sanitary clamp connections sloped to drain with no dead legs, eliminating moisture traps, reducing contamination risk, and simplifying cleaning validation throughout the system.

Fully insulated chamber and piping systems maintain temperature setpoints throughout the cycle, minimize heat loss, and reduce energy and utility consumption without any impact on cycle performance.

High-performance fans intensify the circulation of the steam-air mixture throughout the chamber and around the load, ensuring precise, uniform temperature distribution. The fan wheel and all components mounted inside the chamber are constructed from 316L stainless steel. The motor is installed outside the chamber and connected to the fan wheel through a unique sealing system, simplifying inspections and maintenance without requiring access to the chamber interior.

Lubricant-free gaskets eliminate particle shedding into cleanrooms while extending service life. No lubricant means no contamination risk and less maintenance variables to manage in a regulated production environment.

Standard equipped on every Ventipro, non-contact photoelectric sensors provide instant obstruction detection and trigger immediate door reversal through the PLC, eliminating the mechanical contact points and wear components of traditional spring-loaded systems.

Precision Control. Validated Performance.

GAMP 5-compliant PLC controls for repeatable performance, cycle after cycle.

Built on industrial-grade Allen-Bradley or Siemens PLC platforms and developed in accordance with GAMP 5 guidelines, the Ventipro control system delivers the process repeatability, system reliability, and validation support that regulated production environments require.
  • Programmable with any combination of pre-vacuum and gravity cycles with configurable parameters for each cycle phase.
  • Up to 50 cycle recipes securely stored in the control system memory.
  • Multi-level authentication prevents unauthorized recipe modifications.
  • Instant recipe retrieval via large touchscreen operator interface.
  • 21 CFR Part 11 compliant electronic records and signatures.
  • Available Ethernet/IP and OPC UA for integration with plant SCADA, building automation, and MES systems.

Ventipro Sterilization Cycles

Matched to your load requirements to ensure uniform heat distribution while protecting product and container integrity.

Steam-Air Mixture

Terminal sterilization of vials, ampoules, and syringes in sealed containers that are heat or pressure sensitive. Internal fans circulate the steam-air mixture for uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber while overpressure control protects sensitive containers from deformation or rupture during the cycle.

Pre-Vacuum with Drying

Sterilization of porous and dry goods, including wrapped materials, filters, linens, rubber stoppers, and filling line components. Alternating vacuum and steam pulses ensure thorough steam penetration throughout the load, followed by a rapid drying phase that leaves goods dry and ready for immediate use.

*Custom cycle parameters and recipes are available for specialized load types and process requirements. Contact a BMT USA engineer to discuss your specific sterilization application.
