VERTICAL BENCHTOP AUTOCLAVES WITHOUT DRYING - AVS-N SERIES

Product catalog summary
Main Features
The AVS-N Series vertical benchtop autoclaves are designed for sterilizing general labware and metal utensils. They are compact, economical, and durable, requiring minimal resources such as water and power. These autoclaves are easy to install and maintain, needing only a power source and no dedicated plumbing.
Safety Features
The autoclaves include safety mechanisms like an overpressure safety valve, thermally insulated lid, overtemperature safety thermostat, open lid detection system, and a pneumatic system that locks the door under pressure.
Intended Use
These autoclaves are suitable for sterilizing laboratory waste bags, plastics, glassware, liquids, and metal utensils.
Advantages
The sterilization chamber and door are made of high-quality stainless steel (AISI-316L), resistant to corrosion. The equipment complies with EU standards and features a PID microprocessor with multiple programs, a PT-100 Class A temperature probe, and optional software for data management.
Working Principle
The autoclaves operate by heating water to produce steam, maintaining sterilization temperature, and cooling naturally or manually. The process is controlled by a temperature probe, with options for flexible probe control in liquid sterilization.
Control Panels
The AES-8 model features a digital microprocessor with a compact screen and multiple push-buttons. The AES-12 model offers a larger screen, more program options, and language support.
Recommended Settings and Users
These autoclaves are ideal for small laboratories and clinics seeking an economical and reliable solution. They feature adjustable sterilization parameters and are easy to use with intuitive controls.
Accessories
Available accessories include stainless steel wire baskets, a transport trolley, cable glands for external probes, a flexible core temperature probe, and printers for data logging.
Conclusion
The AVS-N Series autoclaves are perfect for entry-level users in small facilities, offering a compact, versatile, and safe solution for various sterilization needs.
Technical Summary of AVS-N Series Autoclaves
Available Models: AES-8 and AES-12
General Classification: Recommended for small facilities and general laboratories, these benchtop autoclaves are top-loading with a round chamber profile.
Recommended Type of Load: Suitable for culture media, liquids, laboratory waste bags, porous solids, wrapped loads, and glassware.
Sterilization Technology Features: Utilizes heating elements for steam generation and gravity displacement for purging. Data transfer is facilitated via RS-232, with options for integrated or external printers.
Sterilization Chamber and Door Specifications: The AES-8 model has an 8L chamber, while the AES-12 has a 15L chamber. Both models use AISI-304 for external material and AISI-18/10 or AISI-316L for the chamber. The heating elements are made of Incoloy® 825, and the gasket is silicone rubber. The sterilization temperature ranges from 100°C to 134°C, with maximum pressures of 1.5 Barg and 2.1 Barg, respectively. Doors open vertically with automatic locking under pressure.
User Interface and Microprocessor: Features a digital LCD display with varying sizes. The AES-8 has 1 program, while the AES-12 offers 10 programs. Both models have automatic microprocessor control and adjustable cycle parameters.
Other Specifications: Includes a water sterilization chamber, flexible core temperature probe, height-adjustable feet, and pressure gauge. Electric customization is available.
Safety Features: Equipped with a safety valve, thermostat, pneumatic door blocking system, open door sensor (AES-12 only), thermally insulated door, and various alarms.
Regulations: Complies with international standards such as EN-61010-1, EN-61010-2-040, EN-61326, AD 2000 Merkblatt, 2014/35/UE, 2014/30/UE, and 2014/68/UE.
General Features: The AES-8 and AES-12 models offer adjustable sterilization temperatures and times, with fully automatic control systems. They feature gravity displacement air purge systems and are constructed with AISI-304 stainless steel.
Specifications: The AES-8 has a total chamber volume of 8L, while the AES-12 has 15L. Both models have specific dimensions, net weights, power requirements, and standard voltages.
