Product information

Sterilization of Instruments with 40 L Volume

The VX-40 is ideally suited for research laboratories and clinical facilities for the sterilization of instruments, plastic items, or liquids. With 12 integrated programs, the vertical autoclave also enables efficient destructive sterilization of waste in bags via pulsating heating phases.

The unit impresses with a chamber volume of 40 liters and technical precision. With temperatures up to 140°C and an operating pressure of 4 bar, the microprocessor control offers maximum control. A separate steam generator ensures that no heating elements are placed directly in the sterilization chamber.

The VX-40 offers versatile sterilization cycles for maximum laboratory safety. Find more products from our refrigeration technology range here. Request a quote now!

Frequently Asked Questions About This Model

What is this unit used for?

The VX-40 is used for the sterilization of solids, instruments, plastic items, as well as the destruction of waste and liquids.

Which technical parameter is decisive?

The unit reaches a maximum temperature of 140°C and an operating pressure of 4 bar for safe sterilization processes.

Which laboratories is this unit suitable for?

It is ideal for research laboratories and medical facilities that require GMP-compliant documentation and validatable processes.

How does it differ from similar device types?

Unlike models with chamber heating elements, this autoclave uses an integrated, separate steam generator.

Which accessories are required for documentation?

For GMP-compliant documentation, a built-in printer, PC software via RS 232, or external data loggers can be used.
