Description

This is a Portable Vertical Steam Sterilizer, commonly referred to as a Laboratory Autoclave. It is a robust, high-pressure sterilization device specifically designed to destroy bacteria, viruses, fungi, and resistant bacterial spores from laboratory materials and equipment through the use of saturated steam under pressure. Key Features and Functions High-Pressure Steam Sterilization: Operates by applying saturated steam at elevated temperatures and pressure to achieve effective sterilization. Standard operating conditions range between 121°C and 126°C, with a working pressure of approximately 0.142–0.165 MPa (about 15–24 psi). Vertical Top-Loading Chamber: Designed with a vertical loading system and a heavy-duty lid secured using multiple manual star-shaped tightening handles or wing-nut clamps. This locking mechanism creates a secure, airtight seal capable of safely withstanding high internal pressure during operation. Built-in Analog Pressure and Temperature Gauge: Mounted on the top of the unit, the analog dial gauge provides real-time monitoring of chamber pressure and its corresponding sterilization temperature, enabling operators to observe the progress of each sterilization cycle. Comprehensive Safety Valve System: Fitted with a mechanical pressure relief valve and an air release valve that automatically vent excess steam whenever pressure exceeds the safe operating limit, thereby protecting both the equipment and the user. Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Manufactured from premium corrosion-resistant stainless steel for both the internal chamber and external body, providing excellent durability, chemical resistance, and long service life even under repeated sterilization cycles. Common Laboratory Applications: Extensively used in hospitals, microbiology laboratories, research institutions, educational laboratories, and pharmaceutical facilities for sterilizing laboratory glassware, surgical instruments, pipette tips, culture media, contaminated biological waste, and other heat-resistant laboratory materials.
