Autoclaves, medium capacity, Priorclave

These versatile autoclaves are fully equipped for use in laboratories throughout the food, drink, dairy, health and pharmaceutical industries and offer a wide range of options and accessories to further improve their performance to suit individual load types. This flexibility is enhanced by the TACTROL™ microprocessor control system, specially developed for laboratory autoclaves, with progamming ranging from simple cycles to fully featured multi-program operation with logged records. All Priorclaves come complete with Biomaster antimicrobial coating, helping improved laboratory hygiene; it is effective against all bacteria and fungi including MRSA and therefore helps minimise the risk of cross contamination.

• 500 mm chamber diameter to increase useable load capacity and reduce loading height on top loading models
• Quickseal II single action closure
• Fan assisted cooling
• Timed free steaming for improved air removal
• Media warming and delayed start allow the user to have media ready to pour at the start of the day
• Maximum temperature: 138 °C (2,5 bar)
• Mounted on lockable castors

Non-vacuum models:
Ideal for all standard traditional laboratory sterilisation procedures. Water fill is manual; during the cycle condensate leaves the vessel via a silicone tube that is connected to a heat resistant bottle. Ideal for use with media or liquid loads.

Vacuum models:
Automatic pulsed free steaming to improve temperature distribution and enhance steam penetration
Vacuum cooling to decrease cycle time
5 program memory

All vacuum models require mains water supply for pump operation.

Note: The installation of these models to a vented, sealed drain is strongly recommended and is a requirement of BS2646 when sterilising waste loads. Power supply required: 415 V, 15 A, 50 Hz, 10,5 kW, three phase with neutral and earth.

 : Top loading models supplied with two or three stainless steel baskets (depending on model). Front loading models with two stainless steel shelves.

 : * These items are best ordered with the autoclave. Although they can be retrofitted, a site visit from a service engineer will be required with an associated extra charge.
** Vacuum models only. These options must be ordered with the autoclave and cannot be retrofitted.
