Priorclave has unveiled three core groups for its research grade laboratory autoclaves – each featuring several models with more features and benefits than previously available as standard.
The new autoclave groups – Base, Smart and Performance – have been structured to make it easier for customers to select the best autoclave-match for their specific sterilising application.
BASE range covers ‘the basics’: media preparation, waste loads, and sterilising loose instruments, open containers, and labware. The high-efficiency cylindrical-chamber front-loading tabletop autoclaves are well suited to smaller research, quality assurance, and teaching labs. Easy maintenance and light resource consumption help ensure a low lifetime cost of ownership.
The SMART range is intended for industrial, research, and production labs and facilities with greater or more diverse needs. Products adeptly handle standard tasks (e.g., media prep, waste loads, labware) but can also produce drier loads and more reliably handle complex loads that tend to trap air. Suitable for mixed waste, biological waste, pathogen-heavy materials, cloth and textile sterilisation, soil and substrate preparation, wrapped instruments, and porous loads. Sterilisers feature fully customisable cycles (with expanded memory), pre-cycle and post-cycle vacuum, integrated cooling and freesteaming, and air intake filtration.
PERFORMANCE autoclaves are designed for high-throughput operation (i.e., more than four complete cycles each day), and are especially adept at challenging loads and items. The steam/water-jacketed sterilisers are fast to heat and fast to cool. They produce drier loads more quickly and reliably and at lower cost than many comparable sterilisers, allowing even modest labs access to the highest capacity and performance steam autoclaves available.
PRIORCLAVE will continue to produce small benchtop models from 40L capacity to the larger 850L capacity chamber free-standing. Each model will incorporate the very latest version of Tactrol, a microprocessor controller developed for easier programming of sterilising cycles.
Autoclave models in the new ranges will continue to cater to a diverse customer base involved in food and drink, dairy, pharmaceutical, agriculture, education, healthcare and research establishments. Products feature superior anti-microbial exterior finish to body panels and frames, which is a highly effective and permanent treatment for lifelong control of harmful bacteria and protection against the threat of cross contamination. The tough special epoxy finish is proven to reduce bacterial growth by up to 99.99% and is highly effective against MRSA, E.coli, Listeria, Legionella, Campylobacter, Salmonella, Pseudomonas and over 50 other species.
