BioClave™ Mini 8 Liter Research Autoclave

Despite the space-saving exterior dimensions of the BioClaves, the stainless steel sterilization chambers are surprisingly large, accommodating a variety of liquids, media, instruments, glassware, plasticware and other common laboratory items.

Both of these bench-top models include a mechanical and electrical safety interlock that prevents the door from being opened until the pressure has been released. With large digital displays and fully automatic operation, all segments of the sterilization cycle (fill, sterilize, 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 sterilization parameters. In addition, a built in USB port allows for transfer of these parameters to a computer for printing or storage of cycle data.

Both BioClaves offer three cycle options (standard programs), which are preset for the sterilization of liquids, wrapped instruments or unwrapped instruments/plas- ticware. A fourth option “Dry Only” is also available for ad- ditional 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.
