Meritech CleanTech 500EZ Automated Wall-Mount Handwashing Station with Infrared Sensors

The Meritech CleanTech 500EZ is an automated handwashing station engineered for contamination control in demanding industrial and biotechnological environments. Featuring a durable 304 stainless steel watertight enclosure with a seamless wall-mount design, this unit ensures long-lasting hygiene performance compliant with NEMA 4X standards for electronic enclosures. The station operates on 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 160W, supporting efficient integration into laboratory infrastructure.

Key technical specifications include:

• Automated 12-second wash and rinse cycle covering wrist to forearm for standardized hand hygiene
• Activation via infrared photo-optical sensors ensuring touchless operation to minimize cross-contamination
• A visible compliance monitor that counts and displays wash cycles, supporting hygiene protocol adherence critical in clinical diagnostics and bioprocessing facilities
• Compatibility with an optional integrated air curtain dryer to enhance drying efficiency in cleanroom and biosafety settings
• Requires water supply at 4 gallons per minute (GPM) with optimal pressure at 50 PSI, consuming approximately 0.6 gallons per cycle
• Connections for hot and cold water through two 3/4" male hose fittings and standard 1 1/2" drain stub for easy plumbing integration
• Storage capacity for 2.5 gallons of UltraPure Hand Hygiene Solution, effective in eliminating over 99.9% of harmful pathogens, supporting molecular diagnostics and gene editing workflows

Dimensions measure 46 cm (W) x 50 cm (D) x 73 cm (H), weighing approximately 34.5 kg (76 lbs). The unit's design and automation technology make it a critical asset for maintaining aseptic conditions in biotechnology labs, biomanufacturing plants, and clinical environments requiring validated hand hygiene compliance and pathogen control.

This handwashing station is widely used in biotech industry hygiene management, including molecular cloning workflows, synthetic biology research, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, where rigorous hand sanitation is a compliance and safety imperative.
