Despite the space-saving exterior dimensions of the Bioclaves, the stainless steel chambers are surprisingly large, accommodating a variety of liquids, media, instruments, glassware, plasticware and other common research laboratory items. Benchtop models include a mechanical and electrical safety interlock that prevents the door from being opened until the pressure has reached zero PSI.
With a large digital display and fully automatic operation, all segments of the cycle (fill, sterilise, exhaust and dry) commence and run to completion by simply pressing the start button. An optional thermal mini-printer is also available for providing a record of sterilisation parameters and a USB drive can be used to record settings and transfer them to a PC.
All BioClaves offer three cycle options (standard programs), which are preset for the sterilisation of liquids, wrapped instruments or unwrapped instruments/plastic ware. A “Dry Only” option is also available for additional drying time to be added to the end of a cycle. For special applications, requiring variations in cycle parameters, all settings on the BioClaves are fully adjustable.
