VARIOKLAV® Laboratory autoclaves

Product catalog summary
Guideline for Sterilization
VARIOKLAV laboratory autoclaves are designed for sterilizing liquids, expendable materials, and equipment in microbiological laboratories. They comply with norms such as DIN 58951, GLP, and GMP, ensuring safe decontamination and sterilization processes, including those handling genetically modified agents and infectious germs.
Modular Device Concept
HP Medizintechnik offers a modular approach to autoclave design, allowing customization based on laboratory needs. Options include floor or tabletop models with chamber volumes ranging from 25 to 200 liters. The devices can be enhanced with modules for process monitoring and traceability.
Customer-Oriented Processes
The autoclaves support various sterilization processes, including fast cooling and vacuum processes, to meet high-quality requirements. Special modules ensure safe operation when handling hazardous agents, with features like exhaust air filtration and condensate sterilization.
Extensions and Accessories
Additional measures are available for high-risk applications, and most modules are retrofittable. Accessories include sterilizing baskets and lifting hoists. Services such as transportation, installation, and training are offered post-purchase.
Compact and Efficient Design
VARIOKLAV autoclaves feature a space-saving steam generator, making them ideal for laboratories with limited space. They offer reliable sterilization with features like fast heating and cooling, and a separate steam generator to prevent contamination.
Safety and Compliance
Designed with operator safety in mind, these autoclaves comply with DIN 58951-2 and the European Pressure Equipment Directive. They feature a unique fast-closing system and are made from high-quality stainless steel.
Versatile and Expandable
The autoclaves can be configured with various modules to suit different applications, including high throughput sterilization and GLP/GMP cycle traceability. They offer precise temperature control for reliable sterilization without media damage.
Easy Operation
Equipped with an intuitive control interface, the autoclaves allow for easy operation with automatic processes and quick program initiation. Features like pneumatic lid lifts and automatic water filling enhance user convenience.
Advantages
The VARIOKLAV models boast a slim design, versatile control units, and customer-oriented sterilization programs. They are future-proof with options for fast cooling, pre-vacuum, and drying modules, ensuring high sterilization quality and safety.
Specifications
The VARIOKLAV autoclaves come in both floor and tabletop models, with capacities ranging from 25 to 175 liters. They feature a rectangular sterilizing chamber design, allowing for efficient use of space and high loading capacities. The autoclaves do not require a connection to a feed water supply, as they have integrated reservoirs.
Control and Operation
All models are equipped with user-friendly microprocessor controls, featuring a washable waterproof membrane keypad. They offer four standard sterilization programs and the ability to store up to 16 configurable programs. Additional features include a PC interface, error code display, and a convenient delayed start mode.
Module Options
The autoclaves can be customized with various modules for specialized tasks. Fast cooling modules reduce cooling times significantly, while pre-vacuum and drying modules ensure safe sterilization of porous materials. Exhaust-air filtration modules provide safe, emission-free sterilization of hazardous materials.
Process Documentation
Integrated printers are available for documenting sterilization cycles, ensuring compliance with GLP and GMP standards. These printers record process steps, temperatures, pressures, and alarms, providing a hard copy for traceability.
Applications
The VARIOKLAV autoclaves are suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly in pharmaceutical labs where high sterilization quality is required. They are certified for use as mobile and stationary medical devices according to EN 13485 standards.
Product Overview
The document provides a list of accessories and extensions for VARIOKLAV laboratory autoclaves, including metal baskets, center shelves, undercarriages, and chamber insert trays. Specific models and order numbers are provided for each item.
Sterilization Programs
Several sterilization programs are available, including a steam pot program and a program for sterilizing Durham tubes. An option to increase the sterilization temperature to 140°C is available for all programs except for the 25 T and 65 T models.
Extensions
Chamber extensions are available for certain models, allowing for increased capacity. The document specifies the order numbers and the additional volume provided by each extension.
Software and Safety Features
The SegoSoft software is available for process documentation, including digital signatures. An Aquastop feature is also available to prevent leaks and ensure 100% uptime.
Additional Information
More sterilization programs and extensions can be found in the company's price list or are available upon request. Validation services are available on request unless data loggers are used.
