Advantages Zirbus Autoclaves
- Angular steriliser chambers according to the BoTec principal, high-strengthened and efficient. The results are shorter loading times and energy savings at the same time. 10 years guarantee for the inner chamber and the steam kettle.
- Due to the angular chamber, an optimal exploitation of the chamber capacity is achieved. Compared with a round chamber with equal chamber capacity, the loading capacity is 36 % higher.
- Chamber, double mantle and steam generator are entirely made of corrosion-free stainless steel, 1.4571/ AiSi 316Ti made
- Case and support frame are entirely made of corrosion-free 1.4301/ AiSi 304 stainless steel, resistant to all common disinfectants. Further, the case has a semi-gloss surface for easier cleaning.
- All pipes exposed to steam are made of 1.4404/ AiSi 316L stainless steel and isolated particle-free.
- Pneumatically controlled steel valves for long durability and low operation costs.
- Touch screen control for highest flexibility and easy handling.
- All used components come from renowned manufacturers; therefore spare parts supply can be guaranteed for more than 10 years.
- Refitting is also possible after delivery.
Which autoclave for what purpose?
Laboratory Table Top Autoclave
Used for sterilisation of small amounts of liquids, solid material and litter. Equipped with the technology of the large devices. Not suitable for pharmaceutical use, according to EU-GMP regulations, and as pass-through autoclave.
Laboratory Vertical Floor Standing Autoclave
Due to construction, i.e. vertical loading and unloading, this autoclave is especially suitable for sterilisation of light weight items, such as litter in sterilisation bags. A loading assistant enables a back-friendly ergonomic loading of items up to 25 kg, such as medium bottle and fermenters, is optionally available.
Horizontal Floor Standing Autoclave
Suitable for any kind sterilisation. In the compact version, available with usable chamber height up to 850 mm. Suitable as production and pass-through-autoclave for the pharmaceutical industry with gas-proof separation or as autoclave for sterilisation of nutrient media at university laboratories.
Large Production Autoclave
These are customized autoclaves. They may be used for pit installation which enables ground-level loading. They may also be used for sterilisation of ampoules and bags by hot-water-sprinkling.
Why angular and not round?
The main advantage of round autoclave compared with angular autoclaves is the fact that pressure distributes equally throughout a round chamber. Due to modern production and manufacturing methods, an angular chamber may endure the same amount of pressure.
Advantages of angular chambers
- The capacity of the sterilisation chamber can be entirely used, chamber capacity=working capacity. Thus, fewer charges containing equal loads can be sterilised compared to a round chamber with equal capacity.
- Saves energy, time and maintenance costs.
- Required space for installation and loading/unloading of the autoclave is smaller because Zirbus Horizontal Autoclaves are equipped with a vertical door, compared to round chamber autoclaves which usually have large hinged doors that require much expensive laboratory space in front of the actual device.
