All models are fitted with the TACTROL microprocessor control system. After setting your required operating parameters press the start button for a fully automatic cycle. The control panel shows cycle status with digital readouts of temperature and time that can be viewed simultaneously. Temperature and time settings are fully adjustable within the operating range of the autoclave.
Safety
Pressure vessels are fully CE marked and insurance approved to the European PED 97/23/EC. The autoclaves fully conform to BS2646-1993, BS5500 Cat.3, and EMC directives, amongst others.
The autoclave door is fully interlocked for safety with a special safety gate mechanism, which cracks the gasket seal allowing any residual pressure to safely escape. A thermal cooling lock, preventing the door from being opened until the contents have cooled to a safe temperature is also fitted along with a pressure interlock. A low water level sensor, to guard against boil-dry conditions and a safety blow down valve afford further protection.
Epoxy coated panels and frame members are treated with the unique Biocote® anti-bacterial agent, which is effective against all bacteria and fungi including MRSA.
