Compact Benchtop Autoclaves The Priorclave C40 range of compact, front loading autoclaves are designed specifically for benchtop steam sterilising applications, a small footprint enabling even the smallest laboratory to own a highly efficient, feature-packed Priorclave. Out of the box the Priorclave C40 autoclave is ready to use, requiring only plugging into a 240V, single-phase supply. Models in this versatile C40 range can be supplied for either manual or auto-water fill as well as a choice of standard or highly efficient vacuum operation, adding further to its appeal for laboratories where space is limited, infrequent sterilisations take places or a more demanding medium requires faster processing. chamber size chamber material polished 316 stainless steel loading format operating range heater power water supply water tank capacity As with all Priorclaves the C40 benchtop range of autoclave is built in the UK enabling easy upgrade during their working life as customer requirements change.
