HMC HV Series Autoclaves for Laboratory Sterilisation

The HV Series is defined as a robust standard solution within the HMC autoclave range. The assortment covers different capacities to meet various throughput requirements in the laboratory. The selection ranges from the compact HV-25L with a 25-litre chamber volume to the spacious HV-110L with a 110-litre capacity.

Technical Equipment and Microprocessor Control

A central feature of this device class is the fully automatic microprocessor control. This technology enables precise monitoring of sterilisation parameters. With 12 pre-set programmes, the HV Series offers high flexibility for different sterilisation goods, minimising manual setting errors. Operation is intuitive, supporting workflow in laboratories and pharmacies.

Designs and Volume Classes of the HV Series

The HV Series comprises four main models, which differ primarily in their capacity. In addition to the entry-level model with 25 litres, the HV-50L (50 litres) and HV-85L (85 litres) variants are available. The largest model, the HV-110L steam steriliser, is suitable for laboratories with a high volume of sterilisation goods. All devices are designed as vertical floor-standing units.

Frequently Asked Questions about HV Series - Standard Units

Here you will find answers to technical and application-related questions about the HV Series steam sterilisers.

What is the primary use of the HMC HV Series?

This device class is used for the steam sterilisation of laboratory utensils, media, and waste. It is applied in microbiology, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical institutes to achieve sterility using saturated steam.

Which chamber volumes are available in the HV Series?

The series is available in four sizes: 25 litres, 50 litres, 85 litres, and 110 litres chamber volume. This allows the device to be precisely matched to the space requirements and the quantity of sterilisation goods in the respective laboratory.

What control technology is installed in the HV standard units?

All models feature a fully automatic microprocessor control. This monitors the entire sterilisation process and ensures that the selected parameters remain constant throughout the holding time.

How do the HV devices differ from the HMT series?

While the HMT series consists of benchtop autoclaves for smaller applications, the HV series is designed as a floor-standing unit for larger volumes. Furthermore, the HV models offer a wider selection of programmes for more complex requirements.

Are the HV Series programmes pre-configured?

Yes, the devices feature 12 pre-set programmes. These are optimised for typical applications in laboratory sterilisation and can be selected directly via the microprocessor control.

How can I request a quote for an HV steam steriliser?

Quotes for the HV-25L to HV-110L models can be requested specifically for individual requirements. As prices depend on the configuration, they are provided upon individual request.

What should be considered when setting up the vertical autoclaves?

As floor-standing units, the HV Series models require appropriate floor space in the laboratory. Vertical loading is performed from above, which is particularly advantageous when handling tall vessels or large quantities of sterilisation goods.
