Product information

Sterilization of Laboratory Instruments and Waste with 40l Volume

This vertical floor-standing autoclave is ideally suited for the sterilization of laboratory instruments, solids, and the destruction sterilization of liquids or waste in bags. It is used in research laboratories and medical facilities that require reliable process optimization when preparing working materials.

The unit offers a microprocessor control with 12 programs and achieves a sterilization temperature of up to 140°C at a steam pressure of 4 bar. The chamber made of titanium-stabilized stainless steel (AISI 316 Ti) is chemical-resistant. For GMP-compliant documentation, optional PC software or a data logger can be used.

Efficient sterilization through automated programs and robust stainless steel construction. Request a quote now!

Frequently Asked Questions About This Model

Technical data & description

Chamber dimensions 344 mm diameter, 450 mm depth Total/nominal chamber volume 45/40 l Standard inclusions: • Fully automatic microprocessor control with 12 programs: Individual program parameters such as temperature and time can be individually selected and stored for each program. Programs 1-3: Fast program for solids, instruments, equipment, plastic items with rapid steam discharge Programs 4-5: For waste in destruction bags with pulsating heating phase for improved venting of destruction bags Programs 6-7: For sterilization of liquids with slow steam discharge. (Or fast recooling as optional) Programs 8-11: For liquids with subsequent controlled steam discharge and self-cooling (Or fast recooling as optional) Program 12: Cleaning program with rapid steam discharge Validation, documentation: A validation port 1/2" is available for insertion of external temperature probes for validation purposes. For documentation of program sequences, various systems are optionally available ranging from built-in printers to PC software via RS 232 interface or separate data loggers for GMP-compliant documentation. • Steam generation by heating elements in the chamber (no separate steam generator) • Sterilization temperature up to 140°C, steam pressure up to 4 bar • Mechanical safety locking system with lip seal • Thermal barrier, pressure and media temperature controlled temperature-dependent door lock according to DIN and TRB • Pressure vessel made of titanium-stabilized chromium-molybdenum stainless steel 1.4571 (V4A) AISI 316 Ti, electropolished, chemical resistant, easy to clean • Flexible PT-100 temperature probe for reference vessel • Media temperature sterilization time trigger • Electronic pressure transducer for pressure and temperature control • Steam exhaust condensation water-cooled thermostatically controlled • Autofill, automatic demineralized water feed for steam generation • Special program for sterilization of destruction waste with pulsating heating phase for improved venting of destruction bags • Start by clock/timer for programmable start time • RS 232 interface for external data transmission • Prepared for printer connection (for subsequent installation) • Prepared for fast recooling (for subsequent installation) • Manifold for all outlet lines • Drain valve • Base plate for placement of vessels, baskets, etc. • Validation port • Water level safety device • Thermal insulation made of Hanno-Tect, therefore no risk of particle emission • Support frame and housing also made of stainless steel • Safety valve for pressure relief when limit values are exceeded • Overtemperature protection External dimensions: 500 x 680 x 950 mm (W x D x H) Net weight 110 kg Heating capacity: 3.6 kW Voltage: 220 - 240 V Permissible operating pressure: 4 bar absolute Permissible operating temperature: 140°C On-site media connections: Electrical connection: 220 - 240 V Demineralized water: Ball valve 3/4" for hose connection (only for permanent installation, water can also be supplied from a storage tank) Raw water: Ball valve 3/4" for hose connection (for steam exhaust condensation, device can also be operated without this) Drain: Hose connection 3/4" maximum 500 mm from floor or floor drain Warranty: One year after delivery for material and manufacturing defects 3 years on heating elements 5 years on pressure vessel and locking mechanisms
