One of Britain’s leadings autoclave manufacturers, Priorclave, is taking the opportunity to unveil new technological advances to its range of laboratory and research grade autoclave designs and performance on stand D06-7 (Hall 3A) at this year’s Medica exhibition.

Priorclave will be showing its QCS 100-liter front-loading autoclave. It will be fitted with TACTROL® 3, this incorporates the very latest advances in microprocessor controls and Bee Live which gives the autoclave Wi-Fi connectivity and which will be demonstrated in real time.

TACTROL® 3 is a new generation of controllers with a crystal-clear user interface LCD display and presents simplistic setting functions. A quick-view menu shows all the functions that have been set on any select program. Once the screen has been accessed by pressing the ‘OK’ button settings can be easily altered using left and right arrows. Through the quick-view menu lab staff also can enable or disable Loadsense, freesteam, media warming, delayed start and vacuum settings.

For environments where pre-programs need to be tamperproof Priorclave has incorporated full setting security managed with passcodes and a manual key-switch.

The other key development to be seen for the first time at any time is Bee Live, a system bringing Wi-Fi connectivity to the entire range of Priorclave laboratory autoclaves and research sterilizers. It provides immediate connectivity to a variety of Wi-Fi enabled devices such as Smart phones, tablets, iPads and laptops, enabling lab staff to remotely monitor sterilizing parameters.

The company will be running a live demonstration throughout the Medica exhibition on stand D06-7 (hall 3), with automatic data transferred from the QCS front loading and a remotely sited smart tablet.

Whether for use in research or general laboratory applications, the performance and build quality of the Priorclave QCS range of front-loading autoclaves has made it a global success. The QCS EH100, a 100-liter laboratory autoclaves to be shown is part of the company’s most popular range QCS range which offers exceptional load capacity combined with superior sterilizing performance. Visitors to the Priorclave stand will be able to examine the build-quality first hand.

QCS Front Loading Autoclaves

Priorclave Ltd

The QCS EH range of energy-efficient laboratory and research grade autoclave available in three chamber sizes of 100, 150 and 200 litre each featuring a large, spacious 500mm diameter chamber, believed to be largest currently available for this size of autoclave.  This enables increased loading over alternative designs and will often override the need to invest in a larger, more costly rectangular steriliser. The QCS front-loading autoclaves was introduced to meet the requirements of lab managers and research institutions looking specifically for an autoclave with a high loading capacity but a limited on available floor space.  It also boasts several safety features including a single-handed, door opening mechanism that only releases when temperatures and pressures are at pre-set safe levels.  The door is also fitted with a tough silicone seal that, with its extended life, ensures an air-tight seal every time for the ultimate in steam sterilization. Precise control of the sterilizing process is made easy using single push-buttons on the Tactrol® microprocessor control panel.  One touch controls enable the user to step through settings of temperature and time in accordance with best practices for specified loads. In addition to guiding laboratory personnel through the simple programming, the intuitive Tactrol® microprocessor also keeps a log of the sterilizing cycle data such as temperature, pressure and time.  Held in an archive file, this information can be subsequently downloaded for analysing and sharing, as needed. To help prevent cross contamination in a laboratory the QCS front-loading autoclaves incorporates epoxy coated panels and frame members treated with an antimicrobial agent that is effective against many bacteria and fungi including MRSA, E.coli, Listeria, Legionella, Campylobacter, Salmonella and Pseudomonas. Since Priorclave design and manufacture these laboratory autoclaves they are also able to tailor standards formats to suit specific applications and locations.   Energy Efficient Lab Autoclaves Front loading Low loading height Choice of chamber capacities up to 200 litres Wide door swing for easy loading even from a trolley Easy programming from simple to complex sterilising tasks Effective use of water and power reduces operation costs
