Description
3870Elp Lab Line Autoclave
Tuttnauer laboratory autoclaves have been designed to provide high quality repeatable performance and accountability for a wide range of applications used in modern laboratories, which include:
- Liquid sterilization (using two flexible PT100 probes) with various cooling options
- Pipette and Glass sterilization
- Instrument sterilization (wrapped or unwrapped)
- Biohazard and Waste sterilization
- Agar preparation
- Specialized customized cycles
The laboratory autoclave line is designed for laboratory applications used in research institutes, universities, medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food and chemical industries. Each model has a number of optional added-value features which can be configured for fast cooling (“C“), efficient drying (“PV“), efficient heating (“G“), biohazard and waste sterilization (“BH“), built-in water reservoir (“WR“ – ELV models only), Fo control, and more. Benchtop lab autoclaves are designed to save space on your laboratory workbench. Vertical lab autoclaves are designed for your convenience and ease of use when vertically loading the autoclave.
Advanced Control System for Your Laboratory
- F0 software control- Protect your liquid media, save time, save energy: An additional challenge with liquid sterilization is the need to prevent liquid media exposure to high temperatures for a long time, which may harm the quality of the liquid media. The advanced F0 optional feature minimizes the time liquids are exposed to high temperatures during sterilization there by protecting liquid media, saving your lab time and reducing energy consumption
- Stores the last 200 cycles in built-in memory
- Passwords for access level control
- The controller and software comply with the 21 CFR part 11 standard with optional R.PC.R. software
- Sterilization Temperature range 105°C to 137°C
- Optional Disinfection/Isothermal Temperature Range 60°C to 105°C
- Optional Independent Recording for cross-checking cycle measurements
- Filter replacement notifications based on the number of cycles, optional air exhaust filtration for (hazardous) waste sterilization
- Optional air over pressure cycle is intended to sterilize liquids in heat sensitive bags in order to avoid expansion and distortion of the bags under steam pressure.
- Optional Fast Liquid Cooling- The chamber is surrounded by coils that are filled with cold tap water to help, rapidly cooling down the chamber to safe temperature, reducing the cycle time and protecting the load by minimizing its exposure to high temperatures (5075ELVC Model only)
Safe benchtop steam Sterilization
Greater awareness of potential hazards. Ever more stringent regulations. Increasing emphasis on "green" facilities and processes. Now more than ever, it's critical to decontaminate your laboratory equipment, materials and biohazardous waste. That's what the Tuttnauer Company is all about. For more than 80 years, Tuttnauer has been designing and manufacturing a wide range of laboratory sterilization equipment to safeguard you and your lab.
Tuttnauer's benchtop sterilizers provide a fast, safe, dependable and convenient means of sterilizing liquids, instruments, glassware, clothing and waste. The line includes a wide range of models from our economic manually controlled analog models to our electronically controlled models with a build- in printer for GLP-compliant documentation.
Standard Operating Features
- Self-contained design eliminates external plumbing and hardwiring for easy installation
- Simple Operation
- ASME- stamped, 316 L stainless steel chamber ensures long-lasting reliability, durability and high corrosion resistance
- Fast/slow exhaust; fast exhaust allows quick cycle time of solids and slow exhaust prevents media and liquid boil-over
- Closed-door drying system maintains sterility
- Drying cycle removes residual moisture after sterilization
- Continuous pressure purge eliminates air pockets and ensures thorough, even sterilization
- Automatic shut-off feature saves energy
- One-year warranty
Standard Safety Features
- Heat-insulated, double-locking door protects against accidental burns; the door cannot be opened while the chamber is under pressure
- Automatic low water level shut-off prevents damage to the heater elements if there is insufficient water for the sterilization cycle
- Over-temperature cut-off and over-pressure valve ensure safe operation
- UL- and CSA-approved
The 3870EL Laboratory model sterilizer comes with a 15 inch chamber diameter size and a depth of 27 inches.
The unit comes standard with a printer and is designed specifically for laboratory applications.
This unit runs at 3-phase 230V.
