Medical Waste Incineration Systems:
P60-M1 Series

Since
1962, Shenandoah has built high quality incineration
equipment designed for economical ease of use.
- How is your facility managing medical waste?
- How much do you spend each year to have waste material
hauled to landfills?
- How long will these sites be available? And at what
future cost?
- Who is ultimately responsible for proper waste disposal?
Your
cost effective solution to medical waste disposal 
Infectious waste material generated at health care facilities
can cause a serious disposal problem. A Shenandoah medical waste
incinerator is a safe, easy and economical solution.
The P60 is designed to burn disposables that can and should be destroyed on-site.
These wastes include
infectious and contaminated "red bag," surgical dressings, plastic
test devices and other wastes. If your 100 to 400 bed hospital is paying a high
fee to haul these waste materials to a disposal site, now is the
time to consider on-site incineration.
On-site incineration is a thorough, fast, and cost effective
way to dispose of medical waste. Shenandoah's P60-M1 incinerator
is engineered to meet strict air emission regulations with dual
chamber combustion. Our modular design is easy to install.
Aggressive in the design and manufacture of various
incineration systems since 1962, Shenandoah has earned the
reputation of building quality products that are:
- easy to install and operate
- very affordable
- extremely durable
- backed by knowledgeable and friendly service
Benefits and Features of
Shenandoah's P60-M1
Fast, complete,
efficient waste disposal
- Dual chamber combustion.
- Chambers insulated and lined with high temperature
refractory.
- Programmable digital temperature controls and chart
recorder.
- Modulating control for fuel and air lowers fuel
consumption.
- Preheat and secondary chamber temperatures up to 1800° F
and one (1) second retention.
Minimum installation
and start up time
- Modular components, factory designed to keep installation
simple. Most piping and wiring is completed at the
factory, simplifying most connections to single point
hook up.
- Distributor assistance available for permitting, start
up, operator training and testing.
Easy and safe
operation
- Pneumatic or hydraulic ram charging system assures proper
burning rate and operator safety. When the loader
controls prove the pre-programmed temperatures and
elapsed time, the operator places the waste in the
hopper, closes the lid and pushes "load"
switch, beginning the cycle. The vertical charge door on
the primary chamber opens, and the ram pushes waste into
the chamber. The ram withdraws, and the charging door
closes automatically.
- Primary and secondary chamber temperatures recorded by
dual pen circular chart recorder.
- De-ashing at the beginning of the work day when unit is
cool.
- Minimum operator involvement and maintenance.
Dependable support
- With combustion design and manufacturing experience since
1962, Shenandoah is a leading supplier to the health
services professions.
- Nationwide network of distributors work with the customer
to determine disposal needs, coordinate design,
fabrication, factory testing, installation, start up, and
field testing of the equipment, providing quality
operator training.
Charging rate
- Up to 1,500 pounds per ten-hour day of typical red bag
waste rated at 10,000 BTU's per pound with up to 10%
pathological material rated at 1,000 BTU's per pound.
Dependent upon density, BTU value of the waste, and
subject to reloading regulations. Additional time may be
required for burnout of final charge.
Models
- P60-3GLP-M1 Propane fired incineration
system complete with two burners, secondary chamber,
stack, timer and digital temperature control, with one
second retention.
- P60-3GN-M1 Natural gas fired
incineration system complete with two burners, secondary
chamber, stack, timer and digital temperature control,
with one second retention.
