What sets a hospital soap dispenser apart from a household soap dispenser?
Manufacturers design hospital soap dispensers for intensive daily use. Greater capacity, more durable materials, a locking option, and activation without hand contact provide a higher level of hygiene and easier maintenance compared to household soap dispensers.
How does elbow-operated activation work?
The elbow lever allows users to activate the dispenser without touching it with their hands. The user simply presses the lever with their elbow, after which the dispenser releases a predefined amount of soap of 0.65 ml per activation. This method of use is particularly suitable for healthcare facilities.
Why is a 1.1-liter capacity important for hospitals?
The large capacity provides more doses between refills and reduces the need for frequent maintenance. This is especially important in hospitals and outpatient clinics, where a large number of staff members and patients use hygiene equipment every day.
How many doses does a 1.1-liter soap dispenser provide?
A 1.1-liter soap dispenser provides approximately 1,700 doses thanks to its precise dispensing of 0.65 ml per activation. The high number of doses between refills reduces the workload for staff, simplifies maintenance, and makes the dispenser suitable for hospitals and other facilities with a high volume of users.
How does the transparent viewing window simplify refilling?
The transparent viewing window allows staff to quickly check the soap level without opening the dispenser. Staff can plan refills on time, reducing the risk of the dispenser running empty during working hours.
