Genesis 60 E Front Loading Autoclave by Rodwell Scientific Instruments

CYCLE PARAMETERS

• Timer: 0 to 119 minutes
• Temperature control from chamber: 100 to 137 deg.C.
• Maximum design pressure: 2.62 Bar (38 psig)

  CONTROL SYSTEM
  
  

  • MP 24 control offers up to 24 pre-set programs and many cycle options and features; see MP 24 specification for specification and pictures.
  • Pressure Gauge
  • Air Removal by upward steam displacement via free steam valve and automatic steam trap.

    SITE REQUIREMENTS
    
    

    • 3 kW Electrically Heated
    • Electricity supply: 220/240 volt single phase socket outlet rated at 13 amps or optional 4 kW, 15 amp high speed rated @ 15 amps fixed supply or heavy duty socket.
    • Other Voltages available on request.
    • Drain Service: This autoclave can be supplied with a condense collector, so a drain service in not always necessary, however, a 22mm metal drain preferred. Drain service should be no higher than 100mm from floor level. If this is a problem please contact Rodwell because we may be able to raise the drain outlet on the autoclave.
    • Water Supply: Manual Fill. However, If automatic fill is specified a water supply will be required. This should be supplied from a 15mm cold water supply, supplied via a 10 gallon header tank and terminated at a stopcock within 2 metres run of the rear of the autoclave).

      SAFETY
      
      

      • Thermal lock to prevent the chamber from being opened if the chamber or load is above 80deg c
      • Pressure lock to prevent the chamber from being opened if the chamber is above 0.04 bar.
      • If either lock fail the autoclave will ‘fault’ in a safe conditions and ‘lock fault’ will be indicated on the control panel and an alarm will sound.
      • Safety devices prevent the cycle being initiated until the door bolt and the outer door has been closed sealing the chamber.
      • The vessel is designed in accordance with the general requirements of --BS2646 Part 1 1993 and EN61010-2-41 1996.
      • All control circuits are 24 volts.

        CONSTRUCTION
        
        The chamber and door are constructed from stainless steel (BS1449 or 1501-321 S31 grade A where specified). The outer door is a G.R.P. moulding, which considerably reduces surface temperature. The doors are hinged at the side of the autoclave allowing for installation adjacent to other equipment. Sealing of chamber is effected by means of compressed silicone rubber "O" ring system. Closure is by means of a door bolt fitted with a heat resistant handle, which is interlocked with the steam release vent. The door bolt is fitted with a captive bolt device to safely reduce any residual pressure.
        Designed for mounting upon a bench or optional trolley for ease of movement.
