Laboratory Decontamination Equipment - SINK

Safety and ergonomics for local biological effluent management

The SINK by Actini Group combines an ergonomic washing station with a high-performance thermal decontamination unit. Designed for BSL-1 to BSL-3 laboratories, hospitals and biotech industries, it treats contaminated liquids directly at the source, eliminating any risk linked to transporting hazardous effluents.

  • Capacity: Up to 100 L/day
  • Technology: Patented thermal batch process (chemical-free)
  • Energy: 100% electric (plug-and-play)
  • Integrated sink: Varicor®

Reduce production downtime with the Actini Group SINK.

Why choose the SINK for your laboratory?

Unlike the KUBE, the SINK replaces existing furniture and becomes a secure washing workstation.

Performance and biosafety

  • Guaranteed inactivation: complete elimination of pathogens through thermal treatment (standard cycle 135 °C for 2 min, F0 = 50).
  • Strict compliance: meets the most demanding containment standards without heavy infrastructure.

Compact and ergonomic design

  • Complete workstation: a 2-in-1 solution that easily integrates at the end of a bench or in diagnostic areas.
  • Simplified installation: mobile unit mounted on wheels, ready to operate after simple connection to utilities.
  • Versatility: ideal for rinsing instruments, disposing of research products or managing effluents from analytical instruments.

Application fields

Research, biotech and diagnostics

In environments where handling pathogens requires frequent rinsing of instruments or hands, the SINK acts as an immediate decontamination barrier at the source.

  • Research laboratories and start-ups: instantly create a BSL-1 to BSL-3 compliant technical water point without major plumbing work. Ideal for rented facilities or rapidly evolving laboratory spaces.
  • CMO (Contract Manufacturing Organizations): versatile enough to clean small production equipment between batches while ensuring contaminated rinse water is treated before leaving the workspace.
  • Hospital and forensic services: the SINK secures biological sample handling points. Its Varicor® sink provides maximum protection for staff during instrument washing or liquid waste disposal.

Mobile units and healthcare infrastructure

Thanks to its integrated sink and electric autonomy, the SINK transforms any space into a high biosafety workstation.

  • Container laboratories and modular units: essential equipment for mobile facilities where space is limited. It combines a functional sink and a powerful thermal treatment unit in only 0.42 m².
  • Health crisis management and diagnostic centers: plug-and-play installation enables secure washing stations in sorting zones or temporary sampling centers, ensuring perfect hygiene without hazardous discharge.
  • Backup solution: maintains activity during maintenance operations on fixed sinks or central decontamination systems, avoiding interruptions in research or diagnostic protocols.

Long-term added value for your infrastructure

Equipement de laboratoire avec évier Actini Group - SINK

The SINK is not just technical equipment. It is a strategic investment that enhances your infrastructure on three levels.

  • Network durability: by eliminating corrosive biocides through thermal treatment, it prevents premature pipe degradation and reduces long-term maintenance costs.
  • Facility flexibility: instantly transform a dry room into a functional laboratory area without heavy civil engineering work, allowing easy reorganization of spaces.
  • Regulatory and insurance security: removing hazardous chemical storage reduces risk exposure and simplifies compliance audits with regulators and insurers.
  • Industrial reliability: each unit is produced using standardized manufacturing and undergoes extensive real-condition testing before shipment, ensuring reliable commissioning and full compatibility with existing equipment.

Focus on the automated treatment process

Smart water collection and distribution

The SINK simplifies daily operations while securing every drop of effluent.

  • Secure collection: liquids are collected through the integrated sink and directed by gravity to a 25-liter buffer tank.
  • Automatic activation: the system manages water input and launches decontamination cycles based on detected effluent levels, without human intervention.

Advanced technology and discharge safety

  • Patented thermal decontamination: electric heating ensures homogeneous temperature rise for reliable sterilization.
  • Effluent cooling: an integrated heat exchanger lowers liquid temperature to between 70 and 75 °C before automatic discharge, protecting pipeline systems.
  • Full traceability: the embedded controller records every cycle and includes self-diagnostic programs for complete operational reliability.
