Key features:

M18U – Breathing mask / face piece dryer

(Certified for use in North America only. Are you based elsewhere? Check out the M18)

The M18U is a compact PPE drying cabinet. It’s main use case is the drying of up to 18 masks / face pieces. Simply place the wet equipment inside, and let the drying cabinet do its work. Sensors inside the cabinet detect when the masks are dry and shuts off automatically.

In addition, other small PPE items can also be cleaned inside the M18U. Simply choose the right basket and place it inside the dryer.

Can dry

  • Up to 18 breathing masks / face pieces
  • Helmets
  • Other small PPE


Cannot dry

  • Protective clothing
  • SCBAs (choose the M45UB)

 

Before drying

To disinfect and clean small PPE items, we recommend using the Wash 9U (fits 9 masks). For cleaning SCBAs and other PPE items, check out Harstra’s other cleaners (Wash 4U, Wash 6UHP, Wash 9UHP).

Position in product range

The M18U is our most compact dryer. If your station has greater breathing mask drying needs, check out the M45U, which can dry up to 45 masks per batch. For drying SCBAs, we recommend using the M45UB, which can fit either 45 masks or up to 6 SCBAs.
