Fully Automatic Horizontal Autoclave 200L Horizontal Autoclave Sterilizer

• Employs efficient gravity exchange to purge cold air, creating optimal conditions for reliable sterilization.
• Automated control dynamically manages steam inlet and outlet to maintain precise temperature parameters.
• Designed for versatile use in sterilizing surgical tools, lab glassware, textiles, and biological media.
• Offers user-friendly automatic control and a practical drying cycle for post-sterilization processing.
• Built-in safety mechanisms include over-temperature/pressure protection and low-water automatic shutdown with alarm.
• Pressure-sensitive door lock ensures it remains sealed above 0.027MPa, preventing unsafe access.
• Safety valve automatically activates at 0.24MPa, venting excess pressure to the water tank.
• Features a robust, fully stainless steel build for long-term performance and easy maintenance.

A cornerstone of modern aseptic practice, the autoclave is a pressurized device that uses steam to achieve sterilization. The mechanism involves exposing items to saturated steam at high temperature, which coagulates microbial proteins and dissolves membranes. Operating parameters are typically 121°C at 15 psi for a minimum of 15-30 minutes, depending on the load. The cycle is designed to overcome potential barriers to sterility. The initial phase removes air, a critical step because air pockets insulate items from steam. The main sterilization phase then holds the conditions. The final phase involves exhaust and often a vacuum-assisted dry cycle. Its use is widespread: sterilizing surgical instruments in operating rooms, dental tools in clinics, and glassware in research labs. It is also the approved method for treating many categories of biohazardous waste.

Beyond microbiology, it aids in manufacturing processes. The autoclave is favored because it is a non-selective, broad-spectrum sterilization method. It inactivates all vegetative bacteria, viruses, fungi, and, importantly, bacterial endospores, which are the most resistant life forms. This comprehensive efficacy, combined with its ability to process diverse materials, secures its critical role.
