NEOSTRAHL^® Clinic Snap hygienic flow regulators with Click System (Snap) by Neoperl^® have been specifically developed for use in hospitals, care facilities and other hygiene-sensitive environments, where the regular replacement of flow regulators is a recognised measure for infection prevention. Flow regulators can develop biofilm and act as reservoirs for pathogens such as Legionella or Pseudomonas – posing a particular risk to immunocompromised patients. During inspections, health authorities frequently identify contaminated aerators as potential sources of infection.

The AF-NP Clinic Snap hygienic flow regulators have been designed precisely to address these requirements: their tool-free replacement within seconds makes the consistent adherence to replacement intervals practical for the first time – without creating additional workload for staff or technical teams. The adapter remains permanently fitted to the tap, while only the insert is replaced. An integrated colour-coded system supports fully auditable hygiene processes: each colour represents a defined replacement interval, allowing staff to instantly verify and document whether replacements have been carried out correctly and on schedule. Thanks to their design without air entrainment, the flow regulators produce a smooth laminar flow with significantly reduced aerosol and splash formation, thereby minimising the risk of waterborne transmission of pathogenic microorganisms.
