Boekel Plasma Thawer

Designed for use in blood banks and labs where it is required to thaw up to four units of Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) or Cyroprecipitated AHF or Plasma Frozen within 24 Hours after Phlebotomy (PF24) for future infusion into a patient.  It offers both controlled temperature and agitation to thaw various volumes of plasma via two independently controlled baskets that accommodate up to two plasma bags each.  The digital microprocessor control offers rapid temperature recovery and optimal temperature stability to reduce the time required to thaw multiple bags.  The easy to program user interface allows multiple time options for thawing various sized bags.  Upon completion of a timed cycle, the baskets will automatically raise from the bath.  Advanced safety features will notify user of unsafe conditions and raise the baskets from the bath upon alarm activation. 

  • Microprocessor temperature controller with audible & visual high temperature alarm
  • Two basket design to accommodate up to 4 bags of plasma
  • Baskets designed to keep plasma bags submerged during the thawing cycle
  • Independent controls and display for each basket agitation
  • Cycles can be interrupted to check units or add additional bags
  • Cycle times from 0 to 60 minutes or Hold which enables the end user to control the thawing time
  • Rapid Thaw times:  Baskets agitate plasma units in 36.0°C water for optimal heat transfer and rapid safe thawing
  • Polished stainless steel tank and baskets
  • Bacteria-resistant powder-coated exterior
  • Chamber volume and high capacity heater enhance heat transfer efficiencies for fast thawing times
  • Quick connect drain system empties the chamber for easy cleanup
  • Large chamber opening for easy cleaning
